First Alhambra Purchase Help

Thanks a lot ! Do you have the feeling of the chain being ‘strong’ for the super thin size ? I experience with the 5 Motiv it’s super strong and heavy ✨

I think so - I’ve worn mine for almost a year and still feels as strong as when I first bought it.

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.

Hi! From my personal observation the chain on the 1 motif sweets are smaller and more delicate than the sweet 6 motifs chain.

I’m not so sure what the concern is about the chain needing to be “strong” because the sweet motifs are much smaller and therefore much lighter, even after multiple years of daily wear I haven’t had any issues with the 6 or the 1 motifs sweets. The chains were selected with the weight of the motifs in mind to make sure they look and feel balanced IMO. The 5 motif vintage Alhambra bracelet chain is thicker than the 1 motif VA necklace chain also.

I would select pieces that speak to you and make you feel great when you try them on, don’t worry so much about the strength of the chains. I haven’t heard of anyone complaining of the chain snapping/breaking off. We’re not supposed to constantly tug and stress fine jewelry anyhow.

Hope these pictures help illustrate what you were wanting to know about the chains.
