Hi! Great necklaces, and both look gorgeous on you.

My vote goes to the necklace. It makes a great statement. The pendant is nice too, but for me, it's more of the usual "pendant-on-a-chain" theme. The necklace is far more artistic.

On the necklace, the two-tone gold necklace in your photo is certainly nice if you are looking for a "metal" necklace (there is a lot of metal).

If you might be interested in something a bit more unique, I like the chrysoprase and onyx version:

Same necklace, but two different looks, so it's really what you want.
The all-metal version is safe. The chrysoprase/onyx version is wow to me. It would look very chic with your outfit.

On both necklaces, I would ask VCA to shorten a bit. Both seem a bit long on you, especially the necklace.

Just my two cents. Hope this helps in your decision.

I am also quite late… Plus one with @BigAkoya re the necklace and the pendant looking more like a pendant on a chain. I do like the length of the necklace though, and I think it could be worn casually. I definitely also adore the bracelet on you and think this one would be entirely different than the one with color. Full disclosure: I have not yet bought any buton d’or bc I cannot decide necklace; pendant; or bracelet; or two tone or stones lol. Cannot wait to see what you decide as you have the most fabulous taste

ETA: I normally do not like two tone in one piece as it reminds me of the 1980s two toned Rolexes, but I love it in this particular necklace. I agree that it seems softer and more gentle in two tone!
