I've been looking for one in white gold or platinum for a Tiffany necklace, but when I asked a male SA he looked at me cluelessly and sent me to the repair department. I found one in sterling silver at a Kendra Scott store for $15. I was wary of using it with an expensive necklace but works fine for the times I want the necklace to be longer, and my hair covers it so you can't even see it.Hi friends! I’m thinking about getting a necklace extender for my VA pendant. Two questions (sorry if asked before - I couldn’t find a recent thread):
1. Does VCA still sell removable 2” extenders?
2. Has anyone found an online non-VCA extender that matches the chain fairly well (YG)?
Thanks much

I just purchased one from the seller after seeing the recommendation here. FYI, she will do custom length and width for the chains. I just went with the width in the listing, because it looked pretty close, but wanted a longer length.Update! Dug through the old thread from @smallfry (thank you!) and ordered from this seller.
18K gold, and looks like everyone have been pretty happy with the chain match in the past.
Here is their Etsy site in case helpful for anyone else:

I DM'd her and asked about the customization and she sent me a link to her website (outside of Etsy). She has a much larger selection on her website.
Thank you. I already paid for this custom one, so I will see how it goes!
). Does it mean it’d be a no-no? Do you think it will look strange as a necklace then?It’s a bracelet so it will definitely look strange as a necklace. These hacks always look off. Two bracelets are not the same as a 10 motif. The spacing is different. There have been several conversations about this in the general VCA discussion thread.I’ve just learnt that you can get an extender to transform a VA bracelet to become a necklace.
But my issue is I may need to remove inconsistent links between the Alhambras to fit my wrist (if I do finally get the bracelet
Oh yeah you'll have to order 8"+ chain extender if you want to wear your 5 motif as a necklace after getting it shorten, even then it'll still be somewhat a choker length and like others have said, the distance of the motif will look way off and it's not a cute look, and the clasp shows. I do wear my sweet 6 motif (in original length) occasionally as a necklace with a 6" extender to layer with the sweet carnelian pendant, it doesn't look as weird as the 5 motif because clasp & motifs are much smaller but once I get it shorten I'm sure it won't work anymore.I’ve just learnt that you can get an extender to transform a VA bracelet to become a necklace.
