Because I am super impatient, my eyes started roaming to the hammered yellow gold 20 motif, which is a lot easier than finding the perfect carnelian. Mind you, my carnelian 20 is already bought and paid for and I'm simply waiting to come in to exchange for another carnelian, but i started eyeing the gold 20...
this will be my only 20 for this year so i have to choose which is first. Pros for gold: classic alhambra VCA icon, no stone color issues to be dissatisfied with, can match easily with my 10 + 5 motif guilloche pieces and my 10 motif onyx, i'll have a little store credit left over since i already paid for the carnelian and there is something else my SA has waiting for me she ordered from europe.
Cons for gold: is a hammered gold 20 motif really worth 17,000 USD? (this is my biggest question because i have a solid gold Tiffany rosary necklace that is about a quarter of the price), is gold boring?, too much gold??
Opinions, advice? Photos of your gold 20s?
