Nope, last time I checked w/ my SA they said for the 10-motif several months to a year? But the earrings and 5-motif would be a year and a half maybe even over two...they're all on my wishlist. I know my boutique is quite competitive so it's just the waiting game now.

I've heard that some people have just gotten lucky with shipments/timing/clients turning it down. I've now inquired in a couple Italy, France, and Japan boutiques when I've been traveling the past few months with only the Rome boutique having the YG pendent necklace that day. So...hammered pieces still hard to come by sadly.

Oh wow! So it’s still taking a long time to receive hammered gold items once ordered. I’ve checked as well when traveling overseas and didn’t see any items. I was fortunate when I purchased my gold and pendant.

It took me 3 weeks to get a call from my SA to pick up my hammered YG 10-motif. So it depends.

Im not sure if the sweet alhambra hammered is still a piece thats on a long waitlist but my SA in Sydney was able to get me one in after a month. Maybe the harder ones to find are the Vintage size alhambra 🤔

I had asked for the YG bracelet about a year ago and my SA said they hardly get them and you need to prepay which i was not interested in doing although now i wish i did bc of the increase! I also placed my name on the list through the VCA#. The other day my SA told me she recieved one and I could have it. I agree with others on here and think more stock is coming into the stores now.

Was it the 16 motif rose gold? I’m dying for that one!!! My SA said the preorder closed and I was put on the wait list. Anyone know how long it takes to get called 😭

I added my name to a waitlist for the YG bracelet. Pre-orders were not open, and I was told that it would be a very long wait. I am ok with that--gives me something to look forward to. Just wondering if I have to follow up--not sure if the boutique will contact me when pre-orders open up. My regular SA left so I contacted another SA at my boutique but I am new to her--so not sure if she will remember to contact me.
