Help me choose my next bracelet?

[marbella8]

I adore a tennis bracelet and always mix them in. Here’s how I normally wear my Perlees stacked with my tennis.

I have to say I love your stacks, but I may love the elegance of your hands and long-slim fingers with the pear cut even more. The pear cut is so so elegant on hands and fingers like yours. I remember growing up seeing a lot of women wearing the pear cut and you don’t see it as much anymore unfortunately, but it really is such a gorgeous and elegant cut! Ok enough off topic, lol, but I have to agree the onyx looks phenomenal with guilloche! I love that combo, because the brightness of the WG guilloche brightens up the onyx.

What happens when you’re standing with your arms at your side? Do the 5 motif pieces just lay on top of each other? I guess my wrists are on the scrawny side so the one I have hangs as low as possible - it isn’t snug at all. I’m not sure what it’d look like if I wore two on the same wrist.

That might happen if both are really loose. You may consider getting them shortened a bit if wearing 2.

I don’t have exact same pieces. I have yg perlee clover and yg pave lapis 5 motif. Similar pairing. Like you I like structured and unstructured bracelets. I don’t stack my perlee with unstructured pieces since I am concerned about scratching the flat part. I am also not sure I would stack guilloche as I wear my bracelets very loose and my 5 motifs become a tangled mess. I stack my stone and pave 5 motifs.
If I were you I would get the perlee clover as it is a stand alone piece. No need to stack. Gives you 2 great stand alone looks with your guilloche. You will enjoy the variety and uniqueness of each. You can get panda later if budget warrants.
For alternative option I would get pave love. To me that is ultimate stand alone piece but it is pricey and not for everyone. The love is a bit more casual too.
Try everything on or at least try something similar on. Look at lots of pics online to help you decide what is right for you.

Thanks! I agree, while I love the WG/onyx and already know I love the vintage Alhambra line, the perlee clovers just jumped out at me and seems super special. I thought about the Cartier love but in the end I’d prefer something less permanent and easier to put on and off.

What would you say is your favorite favorite VCA piece if I may ask?

Just thought I'd chime in about the Love. As it is now released with a hinge it isn't really any more permanent than a VCA bracelet, and could even argue easier to put on / take off than a 5 motif. Just in case that is really a negative for you in the Love column 🙂

I have them adjusted to fit snug so not as much movement. Here is example. You definitely need to have your bracelet adjusted it fit your wrist.

Thank you so much. Round stones look terrible on my finger. I had oval before and wanted to upgrade to larger oval and my jeweler called me as he got some large fancy cuts in. I went to see and it was love at first sight. You know your pear as soon as you see it lol. It’s so weird how interchangeable the gullioche truly is. I never was fan of all metal Alhambras but the magic draws you in and boom now you like something you previously disregarded. Now I need to get hand on WG hammered.

I have to agree, the all-metal were not my favorites, but now are. I passed on a lovely tpf’er offer to sell me her WG hammered years ago and of course decided later that I should’ve bought it, but of course it was sold lol.

That’s the piece I want to order if SO happens to open back up one day.

Hi I’m late to the party but I have Perlee and wg gullioche and love them stacked together. I also have the wg onyx 5 motif that I wear stacked with the gullioche. Here are some pics. Also you could go panda and wg signature just a thought.

I absolutely love how you style these with your tennis, so gorgeous both pics!
It is a dangerous forum as now I need 2 more pieces didn’t know I need 😂❤️
