What are your alls' thoughts on the vintage yellow gold guilloche alhambra ring? Thinking about getting it for my wife. She is not a big fan of the MOP or Onyx rings but would like a relatively easy to wear VCA ring (no BTF, etc). I think the guilloche ring would fit the bill?

Guilloche can scratch easily, especially if worn on the hand. If she doesn't mind, then it's a beautiful option. You should start a new thread and ask people for suggestions. Describe a little bit how your wife would be wearing the ring, special occasions or every day, what she prefers, her general look. There are a lot of options out there.

@BigAkoya posted this and I feel like I've seen this pic on the forum but I can't identify the proper owner. It's an awesome pic of the lotus from a distance tho, and that 20 is peeking out.

I think I remember who this is but the name I recall is not coming up as a registered user - Lala something?

Do you mean, this piece is a fake?

It's not a fake. I chose not to reveal the year of purchase because some people who sell fakes might produce something similar and sell it by telling the victims the year of purchase.

If this is not an authentic ring can you please let us know so we can have this post removed? This is a potentially misleading picture. Thank you.

Why do you think I purchased a fake? By not revealing year of purchase means I have a fake? Can I say you might be a potential fake producers?

I think many people already said that in this forum, authenticity information should not be revealed for fear of people who sell fakes make fakes look more real.

By all means, remove the picture, I don't care if people look at my pics or not, all it matters is that all my pieces are authentic even it means I have a small collection.

Thank you! I want to know the year because I've never seen anything like this beading style with 10 perlee. Just out of curiosity, I want to know what era did this style come from...

Maybe you can go to a VCA store and let those experienced SAs tell you about this if they are knowledgeable. But I doubt about it because it might mean they might lose business when you learn the differences.
There are other features that are different from the Alhambra rings that they are producing now. All I can say is that what's lost is lost.
