First Alhambra Purchase Help

[daisygrl]

I am about to make my first VCA purchase (I have mastered Tiffany and Cartier - lol, so it is time to experiment.) I would like to get Vintage Alhambra in Malachite. My SA showed me these two. I do prefer dark stones, so can you advise me which one is of a better color? These are the darkest she has at the moment. They both appear to be equally dark - just the lightning was not all that great for taking pics. Or should I wait for a better one? Anything to pay attention to? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Both look gorgeous with beautiful striations!
Are you drawn to one over the other? Get whichever makes your heart sing

Yes, I will most likely go with the second one! Thank you for your reply as I am really uncertain what to look for. My specialty are diamonds. Lol.

Yes! Both are really nice. I prefer these one too. But these are both good pieces.

Thank you! I appreciate it.

Thank you. That is reassuring.

Both are lovely! Would say the 2nd one appeals to me more because of the lines. What a great piece to start your VCA collection with!

Just came back. My SA put aside yet another one - even darker, which I did not know about. It was love at the first sight. Here it is! Thank you for all your input.

I have seldom seen one with such darkness. Very dramatic and gorgeous!!

hello to all of you lovelies… hope - as this is my first post , I get everything right.
Well my question is the following :
I need help with the sweet collection✨
Is the chain of the single motif the same thickness as the one with 6 motifs ?
Or is the 6 motif One a bit ‘bolder’?

I am really clumsy , already own the marvellous guilloche and am devastated how easy it scratches for me , the clumsy owl… if somebody can help me decide if the chain - also the chain of the necklace sweet version is delicate or really worth a try… the chain of the guilloché bracelet is like you can pull trucks with it all the best and thank you if you can help

Hi there, I tried on both the single and 6-motif sweet bracelets before I chose mine, and the chains are the same thickness.
