Dear spaul, Thank you for sharing! I need a piece of advice: I told my SA that I would be interested in the pendent and my chances are pretty high to get it. But I am not quite sure if I will wear it a lot. 2 questions:
1. Those of you who have already Perlee Couleur pendent on other stones - how frequently are you wearing it? What is your experience in combining it with other (VCA) jewellery.
2. If you have to choose between the Perlee Couleur in Turquoise and a Butterfly necklace also in Turquoise - what would you choose.
Thank you so much!
P.S. and yes I have heard as well that there are no earrings this time around. 😫
Ooh thanks for sharing questions I like to chat … I would say it depends on what you got already.
1. The turquoise color will be mesmerizing in summer. Will go with WMOP, YG hammered, paved pieces…
- depending on how it I arranged : lapis lazuli, sapphire, onyx, blue agate / maybe YG guilloché ? (but that one can steal the attention …)
So a really fun piece to play if you like to mix and match. You won’t have earrings so you ll have to mix and match anyway ! unless you renounce to wear earrings
I personally don’t regret my lapis pendant purchase even I don’t like the bangle that goes with and if there would be a BTF or single couleur ring neither. I would although jump on earrings in a snap. It is just that I don’t wear it that much. I would wear my lapis earrings from Ole Lynggard for an everyday look but if I really want a lapis big day I wear my 20 motif and the RDN earrings 🤩. For turquoise I am sure you could mix with Alhambra or Frivole collection. But this type of pendant you could also stack it with another VA pendant or another small pendant (or magic sautoir …)
I think for turquoise you have to see the stone and love the one you get. There are really quite dark or light pieces, more bluish or greenish ones (even at VCA) ; then you have to see it in real life first IMO. So if you like the stone you will see at the boutique I would buy it, considering all I said above. It is an everyday piece and a easy one.
2. For the second question that is a tricky one. I could have bought a second hand turquoise butterfly pendant at a quite good price here. I didn’t. Dont mistake yourself I love it. I just prioritize RDN pendant … for butterfly I prefer lapis or paved I think … but it is a personal choice and depends on your existing collection I may say
Take care
