How have you been enjoying this bracelet? I’m considering it, usually to be worn as an extender for a ten motif but possibly also as a bracelet. Many people have been warning it’s delicate, but I can’t imagine that VCA would make something that can’t be worn (being a little careful is ok), so I want to know how it wears.

Hi ladies,

I am wondering if vca ever made vintage alhambra pendant in onyx WG combination. I‘ve seen earrings and bracelets but never a pendant. Is it possible to get this combination somewhere? TIA
Nope. but like others have said it's in the SO pre-approved book.


There is probably a decent chance it would be approved since there are many other WG/Onyx combos on the pre-approved SO list.
By the way, I just now realized that there are many combos of single-stone 5 motif magic bracelets and 6 motif magic necklaces also on the pre-approved SO list. I can’t wear VCA WG well, but how chic would a 5 or 6 motif WG/Onyx bracelet or necklace be? I’m tempted to ask for it in YG.

(I just realized this is not that discussion thread, so I will end my thoughts there :smile:
I SO'd wg/onyx Magic. I attach it to my 50th anniversary 5 motif as well and wear it as a necklace. In action with my Perlee:

I am loving it! Though I can't fully attest as to how it wears longterm as I just received it a few days ago. But, I have worn it all day, both showering and sleeping with it, every day since I received it with no issues.

I have also read often throughout posts that the Guilloche is extremely fragile & prone to cosmetic damage. The comments make is seem as though you have to be extremely mindful with it but in the handful of days that I have worn it I have not gotten that feeling at all. I have been wearing it while doing everyday household chores, etc. and the motifs look as shiny as the day I opened the box. I would imagine that if it was a fragile as many posts describe it to be I would have noticed scratches, etc. by now.

It probably shouldn't be an everyday, beat around bracelet but I definitely don't think that when you are wearing it that you need to treat it with kid gloves either. Just use common sense as you would with anything of value.

I hope this is helpful to you :smile:
