Funny because I actually did try on the clover ring in my size, and I liked it. I never did before, but it was never in my size. I never seriously considered it but maybe, after I get the single row. Yeah, often times with VCA I give pieces at least two shots, as it takes me a while to get acclimated to a look. But now that I think back, most of the pieces that I have purchased and love have been ones that I loved immediately, although it would take me trying multiple times to trust my first reaction. The pieces that I changed my mind on were the sweet pave studs and the signature perlee bangle.
Thing with VCA…sizing matters. Like having a great tailor.

The ring is gorgeous on you and will be seen more in the winter with jackets and sweaters. I barely see my bracelets in cdn winters.

This picture is perfection. I think you need to put some serious consideration into this ring.

Out of curiosity, why did you change your mind about the signature bracelet?

I had seen it in pics and thought the engraving looked tacky. When I first tried it on, it was in YG and in a medium size. My reaction was "meh, not for me". Then at the first time visiting the NYC flagship store, an SA convinced me to try it in WG and in my size (XS) and it was like WOW. The engraving gave it a little "something" and the shine of the polished WG blew me away, the perlee edging and the flat white part. Plus, it's super comfortable and it fit great. I didn't feel like I was a five year old playing dress up with my mom's jewelry. Then the SA threw the single row on with it and I was dead. Feels so long ago. Maybe 2018?

I really think that's so you! It also looks great on you! You have long enough fingers for the band vs. short fingers and the band is nearly up to the knuckle.

I can totally see you wearing it with oynx, chalcedony, signature bangle. That ring to me is such classic elegance. The metal on it also makes it look less like the ubiquitous "eternity wedding bands" you see everywhere. I like this Perlee ring the best of all the Perlee ring (e.g. 1 row, 3 row).

UPDATE: If you do not already have a ring, I would put this higher on the list than the 1 row. I think the one row is nice, but it's more bracelet and you already have a bunch of nice bracelets. I think this ring is beautiful and will be an amazing compliment to any of your bracelets!

LOL! Thanks, I don't think I can move the single row now. It's taken years for me to accept that I love it. If I put it off again, it will never happen. But thanks. I do like it. I don't love it yet, but maybe it's a matter of time. I still need to get my Rolex, after the single row, and then we will see how the list looks. Can't complain. Fun quandary to have...

Thank you. I never thought about that. Ok, will throw it on the list and see if it has staying power.

I love the ring and I have long fingers so I think it would look great on my pointer finger. But I have the yg bracelet and plan to get the wg one. I almost always wear the bracelet and I am not a matchy person so feel I would never wear the ring. Otherwise it would be on my list.

Just hoping if someone could answer how difficult/ rare is it to come across a vintage YG guilloche pendant?
Click to expand...

I don’t think it’s a “rare” item since it’s part of their regular collection but the stock for a lot of regular items has been rather low since Covid started so you just have to try your luck reaching out to multiple boutiques and the VCA website online boutique. Where are you located? Calling the VCA online hotline could be helpful to locate the Guilloche pendant if you really wanted it. Do you have an SA who could locate it for you?

No, I don't have an SA. This would be my first purchase in-store, my other purchases have been online. I think I'll give the hotline a call, thanks for the advice!
