I really wasn’t sure how this would turn out… so happy that it’s just beautiful! Chalcedony with hammered rose gold (somehow coming off more YG in the photo here, but IRL it’s lovely pink, which makes the look extra soft and feminine).

So stunning!! 😍 I love chalcedony and think it looks amazing with YG or RG, to soften the look.

Yes it’s lavender hued! I requested that the stone be more purple toned. See if you can do the same.

Great idea! The coloration is perfect. I requested for the stones to be more lilac vs white and more translucent vs opaque. My SA suggested YG to pair with chalcedony, but like you, I preferred RG to bring out the dreamy lilac hues in the stones.

So very, very lovely. The RG really makes the Chalcedony pop. You and @nicole0612 share a wonderful vision and will make a statement whenever you wear your pieces.

I was wondering if the calculation for a special/made to order 10 motif WG guilloche necklace would be $15,795 USD? Half of the cost of a 20 with a 30% markup. I found the 20 to be kind of heavy and want a necklace to match my earrings

I bet that would be close. I would start with $11,300 as the current retail of the YG guilloche 10 motif and to be conservative tack on 40%, which gets you $15,820. If you’re lucky it will be slightly lower. But to be mentally ready I would round up to $16k. WG usually has more of a markup than other golds. I’ve paid between 35-40% mark up on my WG SOs. It has not been consistent for me. But it’s been a few years since I’ve done an SO, so things may have changed.
And with the price increase coming, you’ll need to factor that in as well. So I would say $16k thereabouts.

You mind as well but 2 x 5 motif WGG bracelet to make 10 motif necklace which would only cost $6100 x 2 = $12200! You also can lengthen the bracelets also!
