How exciting!!!! Can’t wait to see the beautiful butterflies floating on your hand! Perhaps with a bright pop of H polish for that spring-is-here feeling :biggrin:
By the way, speaking of nail polish...
The trend about J. Lo with her new "milky nails" theme? Nah... we were way ahead of her with Rose Porcelaine! :nuts: :heart:
I am actually wearing Rose Porcelaine now; it's great for cool winter weather.

Also, final verdict on Rose Tamise...
I hate hate hate Rose Tamise; it makes my hands look dingy/dirty. :sad::heart:
I cannot even like it, forget about love it. I got rid of it.

My nails need a refresh but I’m wearing Rose Coquille now for winter since I’d been wearing Rose Baltique to death! I agree the Porcelaine is such a nice milky cool winter shade, I had it on my toes before I changed it up.

I’m sorry Rose Tamise didn’t work out for you! I feel it looks fantastic on the website models and of course beautiful on @eternallove4bag , I find the shade on the darker end and would only wear it in the fall. I’m looking for a lighter mauve so I’m hoping this year they’ll release more in between shades and pastels.
 
No more shopping for me for a while. I just ordered this last week.

I am still slightly in shock. But I’d rather get one really special piece. It should come in later this Spring.

No stacking with this one.

This will look amazing with my Perlee interchangable necklace and my Bouton D’Or Lapis and Turquoise pendant. I’ll pair it with my multi-Frivole earrings and Frivole Pave BTF ring.

ETA, I also own a Verdura Candy ring in Lapis and Turquoise too.

This bracelet is stunning. I love the honeycomb mesh, and the stone combo you chose is gorgeous!
Modshots please when it arrives.

By the way, if I had to guess, I would think this piece is one of the 33 that is part of the price increase given this is one of their historical iconic designs. A win-win for you!

Congratulations! I am so happy for you! :hugs: :heart:

My local boutique had it in stock and I tried it on a couple weeks ago. Craftsmanship is amazing.

I went to the VCA show in NYC in October last year and saw a high jewelry bracelet that I loved, but it was out of my budget. But I was (am) haunted by its construction. It was built as sturdy as a Mack truck. It was so substantial. My expectation that the Ludo will be similar.

I also think this is a dress up / casual bracelet too.

I agree. The Ludo design is striking. I tried on the WG onyx version (it's not nearly as gorgeous as the YG piece). It's a nice bold statement, yet the honeycomb design makes it so fluid. I am certain you will love it.

You can definitely wear it casual too. Of your ring choices, my favorite would be to match it with the Candy ring given the bold lapis cabochon. I forgot you had the Candy ring, so I assume you like bold cabochons.

I am not sure if you like Peretti (I am a huge Peretti fan), but in case you do...
I love her cabochon rings, and I have them in silver, both the turquoise (I have two, the 15mm and 19mm) and the onyx.
I cannot believe her Turquoise cabochon ring is back in stock. It's in YG.
The turquoise version has been discontinued for years. I see the 19mm version is back in stock, so here it is in case you might be interested.

If you want to bring out the turquoise, or if you have the YG turquoise Alhambra and need a ring, I love love love this ring. I wear it with my Peretti Bone Cuff.

Just FYI to share in case you want a bold turquoise piece.

I can't wait to see modshots of your Ludo bracelet. I am sure the SA told you how it's made. My SA went into detail about the piece when I tried it on. Each hexagon piece is threaded on metal, creating the bold yet flexible honeycomb effect (reminds me of invisible/mystery setting). As much as you appreciate fine craftsmanship in jewelry, I am certain you will stare and play with your gorgeous piece all day!

I can only imagine your jewelry collection... what fabulous pieces you must have hiding in there! :nuts: :heart:
