It is not something in my immediate wishlist but very grateful that my SA offered this to me when it was received in my local Boutique last week! Very delighted to add this forever classic staple in my humble VCA collection - a long Magic Alhambra Pendant Diamonds Paved in White Gold!

A little drama on the day before it was received because my SA initially thought it’s a short pendant version and apparently it did not arrive at all at the Boutique bursting out our bubble of excitement 😂 though I was a bit hesitant because the short pendant version is more or less similar to my Flowerlace pendant. However, the following evening, my SA called to inform that it indeed arrived 😳 and it was a long pendant version instead - the one I have always preferred! My SA was off for a couple of days so I could only come over on Day 3 after its arrival.

Before going to the Boutique, I still made a fuss over the clover size/price difference and tried to find pics that show direct comparisons between the short vs long. I was a bit disappointed after realising that the clover size apparently is the same though it’s the biggest of Magic size 🤣 Not helping the situation - my SA told that some of her colleagues (from the same Boutique as well as the other 2 Boutiques) have been hassling her during her off days to give this up for their clients 🤣🤣🤣

When I finally came over to view and gave it a try - I was sold! I could understand why it’s so timeless, elegant, and versatile! There are a lot of ways to wear/style a Magic long pendant and in WG Paved 💎 - it’s a winner!

I paid for the deposit to secure it and still gave myself to think it over the weekend to avoid any impulse purchase since I have another big VCA wishlist this year and fortunately (or unfortunately) i couldn’t get it out of my mind. I finally collected it earlier today and couldnt be happier when bringing it home!

I will still admire it for now 🤣🤣🤣 before wearing/posting some action pics coordinated with my other pieces.

Congratulations on a beautiful acquisition! I'm glad it worked out for the best and you got exactly what you were looking for, whilst getting time to really ruminate over your decision! Makes it even more special when you know it really is the ONE!

Thank you @Prada Prince for your kind words. Yes, I would rather pause, take my time and evaluate my VCA purchases though I understand sometimes the difficulty in planning ahead mostly lies with the uncertainty about stocks (some regular items can be ordered whilst others are non-orderable) and that's when one starts to think/justify about "alternatives". But in this instance, I thought even if I decided not to take the long Magic pendant, I can still use the deposit to order another VCA piece I was initially targeting this year but i am grateful in the end, it indeed worked out for the best ☺️

beautiful! Can somebody please explain to me why the magic long necklace is $15k more than the magic diamond ring? Is the pendant bigger than the ring?
