Congratulations! WG chalcedony is magical. Can’t wait to see you with the 10 motif on.

Thanks so much babe! Ur photos really helped me as there arent that many WG pics around.. esp 10 motif chalcedony. I feel that it is the more underrated stone because it photographs very differently than in real life, very background-dependent. After getting the 5 motif, i cant help wearing it non stop because it is so easy to wear daily (until i retired my onyx pave 5 motif for now, resting mode lol). In a way, i think i like that it is less "commonly seen" out of all the stones.. (unlike onyx, carnelian, mop - though they r beautiful and hence y, more common)

I am not sure if i should extend the 10 motif though, i am 50-50 about extending it. On one hand i wish to keep original look, but on the other, i recall i felt slightly suffocated when i tried a 10 motif pave 2 weeks ago (but was stacking it with another pendant necklace i had on). I hope i love it as i paid for the piece aftee seeing pics of it from my SA..

You could buy an extender. I plan to do that for my wg 10 as I want to layer with a tennis necklace at time so want 10 to hang lower. Can buy a 1-2 inch extender and then have multiple options. I feel the spacing on the 10 is perfect and would not want to alter it.

@sassification, I extend mine 2 in, 9 links added, and when I want it shorter, wear it with one motif hanging in the back.

You can of course use your 5 it will be very long. I wear my 10 plus 5 blue agate together a lot. Long the length.

Yes, this is a big reason why i am getting the 10 motif chalcedony, because i love the length of a 10+5. 20 motif is just too much for me and i love the flexibility a 10+5 offers.

I m just bored and playing with my 5 motif bracelet >.<♡♡

Hmm i cannot decide! Both looks i like, shorter and a bit longer.. what do you ladies think? Which length is more versatile? I am a super casual person, i wear a lot of summer dresses
