I absolutely love these videos. Congratulations @etoupebirkin. These rings are so limited they feel bespoke.
Prada Prince, did you have to put a deposit and just waiting for it to arrive? Sending you good vibes to get it soon, I love mine!
You have such wonderfully unique pieces!
Nope, it’s not an orderable piece, it’s just a wishlist item.
Congrats! Will you wear it together with the 6 motif? I have the 5 motif already and wondering if I should add the 6 motif too.
I ordered a vintage alhambra pendant necklace online on Friday, spent all day waiting for it to come back in stock😊. Also, ordered the same in the 5 motif bracelet through a SA at the Austin store. Both are expected to be delivered on Tuesday. VCA was not on my radar, I do not wear fine jewelry except for my wedding set. But I did some window shopping at my local VCA store in Neiman’s and could not believe how beautiful, stunning, elegant….the VA necklaces were in white gold and the yellow gold in different stones. I posted a pic sent from the SA and the current price of the necklace here in the states if anyone is wondering.

Welcome to the slippery slope of van Cleef! Enjoy your beautiful new jewelry
I've been dreaming of wearing both together since I got my 6 motif early last year! I tried on a bunch of other 5 motifs together with my 6 motif but none of them really spoke to me so I knew I had to wait for the RG hammered. Also, I'm a max 2 bracelets in same metal tone kind of gal, so this sweet and vintage combo is my perfect cup of tea.
If you get a chance to a 6 motif with your 5 motif, I think you'll know right away if you should add it or not to your collection! Would love to see a pic later if you do decide to add it 😁

I currently don’t stack my bracelets but considering the 6 motif since it’s a different look. It’s hard for me to imagine it with my 16 motif since I would need to resize as I had the maximum links removed for the 5 motif.
Congratulations welcome and I am sure this won’t be your last purchases from the brand.
what size is your 5 motif now? I got mine to 16cm which is the smallest I could get without special approval. My 6 motif was resized to 15cm.
I'm normally not a stacker either (as I said earlier, max 2 bracelets) but I there were days when I felt like I wanted a bit more impact with the 6 motif - hence the 5 motif was the best addition.
It won't be exactly the same but perhaps the paying a part of the 16 motif on your wrist with your 5 motif can give you a sense of whether you would like that combo or not.
Hi! I know this is an old post, but I am trying to catch up (been busy and not on TPF for a while).
Congratulations! The ring is stunning, and I know it will look fabulous on you! It will look great with your WG Clover bangle.
The Frivole WG pave earrings would make a gorgeous set (unless you already bought those too... still catching up on all these post).
Congratulations again! I am so happy for you!
Hi again, @glamourbag
However, this is for anyone who has a BTF ring that is a bit loose.
I saw a few posts about loose rings and wearing ring sizers, so I wanted to share my recent experience.
I wear my rings loose, almost to the point where I can flick them off if I tried. Well, somehow, the fingers on my right hand shrunk. For my standard closed loop rings, I have been able to resize, but not BTF rings!
I was on an airplane a few months ago, and my Yellow Sapphire Butterfly BTF ring flicked off (I found it on the airplane floor).
After that incident, I have been on a mission to fix my loose BTF ring problem. I have tried a billion ring sizers. Most are either very stiff, too bulky, not comfortable, or simply flat out ugly when worn.
I found the perfect one, at least to me. These are very soft, comortable, and easy to put on/take off.
I have them on my Frivole WG pave BTF and also my Yellow sapphire & diamond pave butterfly BTF.
Here is the link:
As FYI, I used the Small size (1.5mm) and looped it 6 times. I tried to loop it 4 and 5 times, but I like 6 loops the best. I also tried the Medium size (3mm), but I prefer the Small. As FYI, the two BTF ring shanks are both about 3mm, so per the instructions, you could use either the Small or Medium.
Anyway, in case anyone is interested be sure to watch the videos in the above amazon link to get an idea of how this ring sizer works.
Hope this helps.
