@rk4265 - Thanks for the recommendation on the plastic backs. I have a couple and will bring when I try the earrings on.

Six motif grey, black, white MOP or carnelian tigers eye necklace. I wear it casually, but it could also Be worn a bit more dressy. A bit more, ans you could do a two motif earring (I think the two MOP is 7500 usd and the pave MOP is 15K).

6 Motif was on the list!!! I saw an amazing picture you posted where you rocked it!! I was afraid it might be too dressy but the people here have convinced me that it's more versatile than I thought!

I think the wg pave Vintage Alhambra earrings would be the number one recommendation for your white gold collection. I do understand wanting to try them on. I have them and do not find them heavy at all. A pair of these are on the right side of this photo (picture courtesy of a friend).

I will also be getting this bracelet soon, and I think it is so gorgeous! It's a little more than the earrings, though.

This picture is absolutely stunning! Literally I want everything in it LOL! I've had me eye on this bracelet too - I keep saying "well it's not that much more...." but thats where I get into a slippery slope! Please post once you receive as I'm easily enabled!

I second the suggestion of the perlee signature bracelet and the frivole earrings. Also a stunning combo together with the bright shiny white gold. Also when you do get that clover bracelet, you will have an amazing stack!
Or the Perlee clover ring.

I have had a hard time with the vintage alhambra earrings. Maybe my ears are sensitive but they do feel very heavy to me. Definitely go give them a try though!

Thank you - I know we have similar taste so value your opinion! Wish I could get it all but the money tree doesn't grow fast enough. I've been investing in H and have pivoted to jewelry (help!) but am trying to be smart and buy versatile pieces that I can wear often/everyday! That clover bracelet is the ultimate HG so I should build around it :) The ring has caught my eye (if I can't have the bracelet, why not the ring?) but will need to see if it work with my tiny hands/short fingers.

The frivole between finger ring is a stunner irl with the signature bracelet... the ring is perhaps a bit over the top fir your liking but maybe give it a try!

Did not realize it doesn’t come in WG. Bummer!
As an aside, I also wanted the Perlee d’or in size small to stack and that size is a special order! Comes XS, M and L. Go figure!
Van Cleef works in mysterious ways but not nearly as mysterious as H!

lol! I don’t think anything can be as mysterious as H. I don’t want to visit the H boutique as I’ll be tempted to spend. This year I’m going to try to build up my VCA collection as I’ll get more use out. Looking seriously at the signature. Will have to try on an XS as my wrists are tiny. I definitely want the perlee D’or too as it’s the perfect stacking bracelet.

If you are a Cartier love size 16, the XS will be perfect for you. I'm a 17 and the small was about exact. VCA is also a slippery slope...

Thank you. I thought of that but I’m such an inpatient person that I don’t know if I could wait 2 years!! It’s been a tough work year so feel like I need to have something tangible to show for it. I plan to have a perlee clover one day as it’s an HG but might need to wait for a big bday or anniversary.
