I had my appointment with VCA Maison Ginza yesterday, and I still couldn’t believe the results of it! Full details will be in the Japan thread soon!

The Maison Ginza Edition Magic Alhambra pendant in WMOP and RG! My Tokyo TPF bestie was like, omg you have to go buy lottery tickets NOW!

I am so happy with this beauty! I will be disciplined and not unbox this until my actual birthday! (I cannot afford to keep buying new presents for it at this stage!!!)

OMG congrats, so happy for you!! I am visiting in 1.5 weeks and hope to score one too but I have no purchase history in Tokyo (in Osaka though), reservation was made online so we'll see what they have... Any idea what the 5 motif and overall stock situation is like nowadays? Is it still scarce?

Heartiest Congratulations @Prada Prince for scoring your 1st WL (I think? :biggrin:) during this trip!

I can't wait to read your stories :smile::smile::smile:

Not to play Devil's Advocate here but is it likely the other WL item we both saw here going to be your next acquisition to round it up? :graucho::graucho::graucho: :lol::lol::lol:

After years only allowing myself to dream, I suddenly went to VCA and asked for the hummingbird.
Two weeks later there it was, according to the SA it was the only one in Europe, and just what I hoped for : striated malachite and lapis lazuli with flakes !
Now back to Ban Island, where I'm spending the whole year. I aim at stopping buying handbags and improve my style with accessories. I'll say it’s done for this year concerning jewelry !

The stones on the piece are gorgeous. Congrats! Will you wear as pin or necklace?
 
I had my eye on these turquoise sweet earrings for over a year and finally ordered them. They arrived in less than 2 months and just in time for spring. It was love at first sight, and much more vibrant than the website photos with a stronger green hue.
Yes also happened to buy them last year on the website as not available in my boutique. I loved the color too (blue > green bright color). Your pic is fabulous and you look amazing with this bright color and the sun.
Congratulations 🎉!

Thank you! I tried to search the forum for mod shots before buying but there weren’t very many. Can’t wait to see these beauties in you too!

If anyone else here wants a hummingbird too, according to the SA the production is now very low for this particular lucky animal.
She shew some others she had, like the cat or the squirrel.
I don’t know why, but I never cared about any other animal (lucky me).
I have no special link with hummingbirds, they don’t live in my country.
It might be the vibrant blue and green they chose... however I was never interested in the frog in spite it’s made of malachite.
Mystery :-)

Ah! So beautiful! Congratulations!
Thank you!
OMG I am doing the happy dance for you! MANY MANY CONGRATS and now you have to buy that lottery🤗 @Prada Prince
Thank you! Yes, after all this spending, I really do need to win the lottery!

Thank you so much! I got my reservation directly from my SA, so I’m not sure what the process is like for the online ones in terms of asking for stock in advance.

Indeed, the stock was as scarce as always. In terms of 5 motifs, they showed me the YG guilloche alternating pave, the WG pave, and the RG GMOP alternating pave bracelets. They also had the pave 6-motif in WG.

Thank you! Well, it was definitely number 1 on my VCA wishlist, and I did get my Goyard wishlist bag as another birthday present!

You ARE playing devil’s advocate! It took all my willpower to not try to get the ring as well! Otherwise I’d be homeless! A very sparkly homeless person, but homeless nonetheless!

Thank you so much! You’ve encapsulated it perfectly. It honestly feels like the mirror image of my 2024 Tokyo trip where I secured my Onyx 5-motif. I was smiling so contentedly on the flight home about what a magical trip it was, and I can foresee it being the same this year. Thank you for your kind wishes!
