Hi everyone! I am hoping for some thoughts and maybe even some mod shots as I decide whether or not to pursue a recent idea ! I am a rose gold lover and most of my pieces are RG (a few YG, but not many). However, I happened to stumble upon a great WG stack online the other day which included the vintage Alhambra in white hammered gold. I know the piece was either a SO or limited edition but it was beautiful and it got me thinking about how that would look mixed with my vintage hammered RG bracelet. I typically don’t mix metals, but my eternity band is WG and I wear my Alhambra on the same on the same wrist. I have a feeling that it MAY look cool to mix the two bracelets on that wrist, but I would have to see how it looks before I even explore the possibility with my SA (if it can even be done, maybe I’m putting the carriage before the horse 🤣). If anyone happens to own that special piece and has mixed it with RG , or has mixed other RG/YG and WG Alhambra bracelets and would kindly share some pics, that would be wonderful! TIA to anyone who is willing to weigh in! ❤️

picked up the tiger eye VA pendant to pair with my magic chalcedony pendant. I am fascinated with the look of fire and ice this combo gives. i’m still trying to figure out how to style them together. here they are on the shortest setting and including my trace chain. I love that both stones have striations.

That is so creative! I love it and your malachite combo. Honestly, everything looks good on you.
