Ahh thank you for explaining . Does that mean I can request to have it made ( with a waiting time )
You should be able to order it. Earrings and 16 motif sautoir are not nowadays unfortunately
But even if a piece appears on the website doesn’t mean it is orderable (even if it is available on website it isn’t always orderable…). Means you have to ask an SA to know. Lists of orderable pieces are subject to change anytime
Thank you so much for explaining . I only own the sweet necklace and bracelet so I'm very fresh to ordering from VCA
You should ask your sales associate if it is available for preorder. It goes in and out of availability for preorder!
Late to the party, congratulations @Swellgal !! I have been eyeing the 6 motif pave for the longest time. So glad to see you have it. I feel like we have the same taste! Lovely combination 🥰
Thanks so much @Glossyreactions ! I’m really enjoying the pave sweet 6. It’s definitely not nearly as blingy as the vintage size diamond motifs on my pave/guilloche bracelet, but I’m trying to build a wearable collection. My WG pieces are much more subdued and the YG is louder. Now I want a WG ring to “finish off” my collection.
I just received my bracelet as my first VCA piece (been on my wish list for years and finally pulled the trigger)! I had it shortened by 1 cm to 16.5 cm (they took off 8 links) but after wearing it for a while, I feel like it’s still too long with one of the motif hitting the edge of my palm. It also bothers me that the motifs are not evenly spaced (the motifs have 11 links in between except for the middle two which has 13 links).
For those who had their bracelets shortened, how does it fit? Would you be able to post some side profiles?
I want to have the 2 links removed so that the motifs are evenly spaced but not sure if that will be enough to prevent the motif sliding down to my palm and I don’t know if the bracelet will be too tight if I were to take 7 links out (to make it evenly spaced with 10 links in between each motif).
Also my bracelet slides up my arm and then gets stuck, creating imprints - does this happen to any of you as well?
The tennis bracelet is 16 cm for reference - any advice is appreciated!!

Yes the bracelet slides up and down the arm and there are imprints if it sticks to your skin. That’s the nature of skin and metals. If the bracelet touching your palm bothers you (it annoys the heck out of me) I would prioritize shortening it to prevent that from occurring regardless of the spacing between the motifs. My five motifs have 2-3-3-2 link configuration. Yes, the distance between each motif is not exactly the same but with the clasp it’s not going to be the same anyway. It needs to be comfortable to wear. Your brain will get over the spacing.
@EpiFanatic thanks for the advice! I’ll get it shortened so that it doesn’t hit my palm as the priority since it annoys the heck out of me too! I think I’ll be ok with the uneven links as long as it’s spread out between motifs.
Good to know regarding the imprints - I don’t usually wear bracelets so I wasn’t sure if that was normal (dumb question, I know 😅)

I think that as you wear the bracelet more you will fall in love with it more and the spacing will bother you less.
I also had it shortened quite a bit to 15cm to prevent it sliding all over because it bothers me a lot. The sweets definitely leave an imprint especially if I wear it for more than several hours but it doesn't bother me that much now!
I highly recommend to NOT wear this bracelet loose. It was caught on the door at work within two weeks of picking it up after resizing. My SA said it was sized to 15 cm, but I don’t believe it because my vintage is 16 cm and sits higher from the wrist. I had to get a perlee pearl of gold to hold it in place and now it’s much better.
