My very thoughtful husband gifted me the Alhambra diamond pave and alternating guilloche YG bracelet for Christmas. I am absolutely in love with it! I paired it with my MOP bracelet today and my 3 flower frivole pendant. The photos don’t capture how blingy and reflective the diamond motifs are nor how like liquid sunshine the guilloche is. I must say I feel like the MOP takes away a bit from this bracelet when stacked. I’ll try it out with my carnelian 5 motif in coming days and share that too. For those who are curious about the diamond motif flipping, I think the backside is beautiful too…you can see the underside of the diamonds and it makes a snowflake pattern that is really pretty.

it was a very VCA Christmas! After lots of research and wonderful tPF peeps helping me narrow down Frivole pendant choices, I came home with the large Pave in YG! Just before we arrived in the store, 2 pairs of the VA Pave earrings landed in the boutique and my SA set one aside for me. I first tried them on in 2019 and couldn’t afford both them and the pendant (which I did buy) back then… then they were so hard to get I lucked out!!! Also got the Gemini Zodaique pendant and am awaiting the shortened 70cm trace chain to arrive.

What an incredible Christmas gift! Congratulations! Gorgeous pieces, all! Wear in good health in 2025!
 
Would like to humbly share my latest purchase! Am absolutely over the moon about these 2 motif Lucky earrings ❤️
Wow, you are really making me think about these. I had not seen them in action before now and am usually not drawn to tiger eye, but they really do look great on you. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas TPF fam! Introducing my 16 motif necklace in MOP ❤️
Beautiful! Enjoy it in good health.

Congratulations and merry Christmas! I also am a big fan of your 3 flower necklace. Good to see another one on here since it is such a great piece in my opinion.

The necklace looks beautiful on you! I wouldn't have thought to stack it but really like it with the simple necklace you paired it with here. Also, I hope you LOVE having the pave earrings to go with your necklace. I have this set and really enjoy it!

Wow what a great load to make it a Vca Christmas. There have been a number of posts recently in the pave large pendant. Beautiful piece on you and definitely on my list!
 
My mother and I got matching guilloché pendants in yellow gold! (my father said we were awarded “gold medals” :giggle:) I walked into the Ginza boutique at 12 pm and got lucky to get the last walk-in appointment of the day! I was told to come back at 6 pm. Service wasn’t as wonderful as I experienced two years ago at this boutique though :crybaby: I was paired with a sales associate and translator. They were both kind but gave me a sense of feeling that they were both new… In comparison to my first visit, I didn’t get the feeling that I was buying a luxury good with them.
Regardless, they offered us drinks and chocolates as usual.
As for packaging, we were given a choice between the previous box-form vs pouch. When we asked for both, we were informed that we could only choose one for environmental reasons. (I’ve read that VCA is trying to phase out the box packaging!) My mother and I both chose the pouch since it’s so much more convenient + I like taking pictures of my piece against the VCA green :love: (Included a side by side comparison of the new pouch vs the travel pouch along with the cleaning set!)

Wow! You got some holy grails @WingNut and these are classic pieces that will never go out of style! Enjoy them in great health and happiness ♥️

Thank you ❤️ If I may be the enabler for a second here…. I really recommend trying them on. The colour combination is very classic and goes with a lot of outfits. I never thought I’d be into tiger eye either, but these this combo with MOP really works nicely.
