Hammered Gold Alhambra - Still a long wait?

I ordered (paid in full before the price increase) the 6 motif hammered rg in May 2024 and finally was able to pick it up today (5 months - my SA had estimated 6)! I still need to get it resized, but I think I'll wear it for a few weeks to enjoy it. My SA told me resizing should take about 2 weeks.
Yay! It's definitely worth the wait and such a versatile piece.

If you're based in the US, it may be a good send it in for resized now so you can enjoy wearing it during the holidays. Otherwise, it may get stuck in the workshop for much longer than 2 weeks because of the holiday season :lol:

How rare is it to be able to purchase a hammered VA single motif necklace on the spot? I got offered one recently but didn’t take it up.
Not sure. You can anyway order it and waiting time is not as long as earrings or bracelet. I got offered without asking once the YG and once the RG ... But maybe could have been more if I asked ? On the online boutique I see sometimes the YG VA pendant pop up (at least 3 times this year)

I just ordered a sweet hammered bracelet. They said it’s 3-6 months wait but more likely in the new year. My SA said earrings takes the longest…
Happy to hear you were able to order the bracelet. I have an upcoming appointment and also looking to order the sweet hammered bracelet. E boutique told me they are taking pre-orders for the 1 motif hammered gold bracelet, but said to check with my local boutique for the 6 motif.

I think it’s pretty rare, and might be down to luck like a customer having returned a pre-order. My SA told me it must be pre-ordered, with a 4-6 month wait to receive it. She told me just this weekend. I’m in CA.

Can I request ppl who own the 6 motif hammered sweet to post picture of them wearing it? I got offered to place an order for it but I have no idea how it looks in real life

Thank you!

Here you are

I really recommend it to you. I wear it 24/7 very comfortable. Easy to stack. Here with YG Perlée of gods or alone. I was unsure when I ordered it but more than 100% convinced

Thank you! I'm on the fence cause I really can't visualize it lol... I only got room for 1 more bracelet and I can't decide which one! I have the single sweet hammered which I wear daily but don't know if I should go with the 6 motif or a 5 motif agate 😕

I received today my RG hammered VA earrings as promised ... so the 3 days wait were precise ! With a little surprise in addition. So am above earth 🌍
Will post in the hammered thread later when I am able to take pictures

:panic: :yahoo:
When I got my RG hammered VA earrings i also fetched the online purchase I made 2 days before : YG guilloché earrings. I am surprised the guilloché earrings do feel heavier. I don't get sore piercings at all but I can feel them and not feeling the hammered pieces ...
