This is very helpful. I agree that the bracelet looks very nice. Do the charms come off? Thanks

Thank you. Yes, charms are removable and you can rearrange them to your liking. I even wear the Ball one on another long chain sometimes. It's truly a transformer piece.
Happy Sunday! This collection is addictive, so I’m back with another new addition: the Hardwear Double Link Pendant in silver. I had the chain lengthened to 18” and paid the usual rate to lengthen even though this piece has two chains.
Gorgeous! How did you lengthen, did you request it on the spot in the store? I may need to do something similar with a bracelet.
Thank you! I went in to purchase and asked for it to be lengthened after trying it on. Instead of having me buy the model they had in stock and sending to NY/NJ, my SA special ordered a new necklace with the alteration added to the order. Apparently this is faster. It took less than 2 weeks vs. 3 weeks I was quoted for sending a piece in hand to NY/NJ.
Thank you for the info. Your SA went above and beyond. My SA is sweet but lazy
I'm considering buying large hardware bracelet with long link in yg and replacing this long part that annoys me with normal links. Otherwise the size of the links is perfect for me.Interesting idea! Let us know if they’ll do it. Assuming they return the long link to you, I think it could be cute on a thin chain.Thank you for the info. Your SA went above and beyond. My SA is sweet but lazy
I don’t really get the long link on a bracelet either. At least in stock photos. I haven’t seen in person and real life photos look better. I didn’t realize the link size of that bracelet differs from the large link bracelet. Is it in between the medium and large size-wise?
The long link has some practical use, it's not protruding and if you do a desk work it's more comfortable underneath, you are not banging "ball" protrusions on the surface. But aesthetically I'm all for the consistent look in links.
Yes, links in Large are slightly bigger than in large with long link bracelet. It's a deal breaker for me, really large is uncomfortable on my small wrist, I had/tried these bracelets both in gold and silver. Slightly smaller links in a long link version is what I need. I have a small too, just for layering.
As for lengths, all bracelets have the same # of links and the same weight, in larger sizes links are longer and thinner.
Does anyone have these earrings from the new collection? Caught my eye. Contemplating buying, but not sure if they will still look good in 10 years.
I don’t see many on here with the pearl pieces. Anyone?
I really like the silver and white pearl combos and am eyeing this necklace
But I’m not sure how you’d clean the silver without damaging the pearl?

But I’m not sure how you’d clean the silver without damaging the pearl?I have the same question about these earrings generally. I’m attracted to them but could see the style aging. Like how I see oversized gold earrings from the 80s now. I think even if I could spend that much, I wouldn’t invest in the pave for that reason.
Same question here (I’ve been eyeing the Pearls by the Yard Sprinkle). I live near a boutique, so I would just take it to Tiffany, but that’s a hassle (and obviously not an option if you aren’t near a boutique). That said, if worn regularly or stored in an antitarnish case, my silver is fine, so I will probably talk myself into buying.I don’t see many on here with the pearl pieces. Anyone?

Pearls by the Yard would be lovely! Yes, I’m not near a boutique. All the T silver I own I just use the baking soda/tinfoil method to clean but obviously couldn’t do that with a pearl! I know most have good success using a polishing cloth but with the way the silver wraps around the pearl with the hardwear pendant…..? (Sorry to be OT!)
I think the hardwear line will have good staying power. Really, it’s a modified paperclip design, and though that’s currently “on trend” imho it’s reached classic status.
These earrings are utterly gorgeous!
Yeah it’s a lovely style but not very DIY-friendly. But if you love it, I’m sure a good local jeweler could clean for you no problem.
