So wonderful to see more posts here recently! Many thanks, katmb and calexandre for sharing your gorgeous pieces!

calexandre, the Vertige ring is so beautiful in its elegant simplicity! So helpful to see it from two different angles. :smile1: And regarding your Confettis, did your 80cm come in a Y configuration, or is there a clasp that allows fastening it at different lengths? I've only tried the 120cm, and I think it's without a clasp. Lovely both in a Y and continuous. No matter the length or configuration, it's a beautiful necklace!

EdM, thank you! In the photos above, I'm wearing the Confettis "backwards," with the clasp at the front. The necklace is indeed adjustable in four steps-- I've shown the shortest and longest options here. It's not a suuuuuuper dramatic difference, but it is useful nonetheless; it basically makes it go from matinee to opera length on me. (N.b. that the necklace would be a bit longer at each step if I weren't wearing such a gigantic sweater today.)

A couple of pieces I haven't posted here yet, although there are modeling shots of both already in this thread!

First, a Confettis 80cm. I had been mulling this piece ever since seeing it sparkling on cvw1004 many months ago. It's one of those pieces you really have to try on to understand how great it is-- neither photos nor the display case can show how much the little pailettes twinkle!

Second, the Vertige ring. I had seen this on the website for ages and thought, "meh." Then I saw it on Arabesques and understood how sculptural and dynamic and bold it is-- again, this is another piece that isn't shown to advantage in the website photos. I tried to take a shot that shows how it arcs up high off the finger when worn.

Thank goodness for savvy H friends who model their silver pieces beautifully. :smile1:

You look fantastic with this confetti. Well, you look fantastic without the confetti too, but that's off topic. I saw it in the boutique the other day, but did not ask to try it because, well, the consequences...


Anyway, this is on my wishlist now.

Perfumegirl, thank you for the wonderful compliments! :smooch:

I wish I more often used the tactic you mention. "It can't hurt to just try it on," I say to myself, and then.... :rolleyes:

So glad you took the plunge with the confetti (and now have the set). It's delightful in every way and suits you so well.

Well chosen too, your new statement Vertige. As you point out the simple, sculptural quality is perfection and sophisticated.

Thank you all the modelling shots, indeed, slightly too helpful :D

A small version of the silver CDC is now available, cute!

You look amazing in both of these photos! What a versatile piece! I love how it's delicate but still makes a statement.

I adore h silver bracelets and have always wanted a link style to join my sterling CDC and my boucle sellier, both of which I wear to death. I tried the chain d'ancre many times in all the sizes but it never seemed quite right on my wrist. I tried one more time before the silver increase and my SA dug up this piece....it was love at first sight.
The acrobat GM, (an older piece, I think) but perfect for layering or on it's own
