Just curious--did you go with the initial for your first or last name? I LOVE this--it's very elegant and the mix of white and yellow gold makes it very versatile.

Does anyone have the Verdura curb link necklace and if so, do you like it/reccomend it/wear it and finally, do you have pictures? Thank you so much . . .

I have the long necklace and love it. I have it divided into three sections: 14 inch (double tour), 7 inch (single tour), and a 13 inches. This allows me to make a variety necklace and bracelet combos. I’ll take pics and post them.

Not a lot of action in this thread, so here is a jump-start!

I just added these Verdura curb-link hoop earrings to my collection and I couldn't be happier! They can be adjusted so they don't turn so far to the side, but I prefer as they are shown here on the model.

These are lovely. Classic but very different.

How is your initial necklace? Do you wear much? I’m still toying with the small initial one…I’d need a trip to New York, but I’m still pondering.

Interesting question ! I was determined to get the larger initial, because I like to wear long necklaces, and thought the small would be lost on a long chain.

At almost the same time I bought the Verdura large initial I also bought a large initial necklace from Briony Raymond. BR’s large initial is much smaller than the Verdura large initial . https://brionyraymond.com/products/...-r-letter-pendant?_pos=9&_sid=2ef6b5358&_ss=r. I had BR make a 22 inch chain for the initial , so it is a much shorter chain than the Verdura .

Now that I’ve had both for about 1 1/2 years , I’ve realized that I only like to wear the large Verdura initial on dressy occasions while I wear the BR initial as an everyday necklace.

I can understand one for dressy occasions and one for everyday….the Verdura is a bold look in the small size, so I can imagine with the long chain and the bigger letter it isn’t an everyday piece. But still, the bigger letter really shows the craftsmanship, no? That beautiful rope detailing….I should just buy it.

Briony Raymond has some incredible pieces also. I love the scatter Sloan.

I love these! I was tempted to get either of these or the smaller curb-link with just the two links. I feel like the hoops are great for going out but might be too much for everyday wear, where the smaller ones would be great for everyday. I thought I had made up my mind for the smaller size, but now your post has confused me again LOL.
