You hit this on the nail! The void when the eye has to roam. That dead empty space that is the issue often when a long necklace is worn with a pendant/charm. Yes, that is my dilemma with long chains with a pendant at the bottom. For me, the pendant needs to be huge, otherwise, the eye has to roam too much.Wow @chiaoapple I actually love it layered like this! I'd likely wear it shorter as well because I'm sure my yorkies would assume it was something they could play with when worn longbut the times I did wear it long, I think it paired with something shorter looks great and fills that empty space you were referring to.
@BigAkoya I know you are not keen on shorter necklaces but would you consider pairing the very large frivole worn long with , for ex: another pendant which is worn, say at 20/22"? That length shouldn't be in direct line with most round necklines or are you just not a fan of anything in that length vicinity at all? By double pairing, you would fill in a bit of the void that the pendant (with just a chain traveling for most of the length of the design) leaves as it travels past the chest/rib area (the 20 is a continuous design so its more interesting as it travels its whole length). For ex: a 15 motif, if it existed without an extender or bracelet attachment (re: clasps), would probably be ideal. If you do end up liking the cosmos btf ring, it does also come in a medium clip. The only thing with that idea is then your mixing frivole and cosmoshmmm, now that Im thinking of it, I don't know if the two flora collections would work well together. It might be too much of a mash up. I assume you also don't love the onyx and wg pave 20 motif? Gah! I see your dilemma!
I love your suggestion of adding a chain, but I think the problem is the Frivole flower is too small for it to be at the "base" of necklace stack. Your great suggestion has me thinking now! I love Tiffany bottle pendants, and one of them I own is the small bottle with the turquoise stopper. It's on a long chain, 28", however the bottle itself is small and does not pop much worn by itself. I solved that problem by wearing the bottle shorter, layered with a longer chain, so it looks like the chain frames the pendant. Shorter pendant, longer chain. I hope that makes sense.
Your suggestion gave me the idea I could maybe do the same with the Frivole flower, wear it shorter as you suggested, probably buy a 26"-28” chain from VCA, but then wear a longer necklace 34"-36" to frame it. Oooh oooh oooh... I am going to look at this option! Now... what would be longer necklace.
I totally love the Very Large Flower Pave pendant. If I wore short necklaces, I would wear it super short, 15", so it hangs right at the bottom of the hollow of my neck. I would channel the groovy flower child look! This piece is one of my favorite pieces (actually, VCA can make a humogous size and I would love it even more). I was so bummed it did not look, as you said.... the void! I love that description, great use of words!
Yes, I agree with you, Cosmos and Frivole don't quite work together. I did try on the 20 oynx pave, and I didn't like it. It was not bold enough to look like a bold, harsh 20 motif all oynx which is the look I want. Yet it was not "diamond-y" enough to come across as a long diamond necklace, so for me, that necklace was neither here nor there. I think I posted a photo of me trying it on somewhere. It was just ok on me... didn't really pop, the little pave motifs took a backseat to the strong black oynx, so visually, it looked like empty spaces on what should be a beautiful all oynx 20 motif. Gah... I just realize I go so overboard describing the way jewelry looks.
I just hope you’re not bored with these long posts. My opinion of course, and everyone has their own preferences. I hope it might help others as they are deciding on what pieces they want. Thank you again for this idea! I am so glad you get this dilemma. You are awesome!
Oh.... I found a photo of what I am talking about.... pretend the bottle pendant is the Frivole flower. The bottle in real life is acutally still bigger than the Frivole flower, even though it's the small size bottle. So imagine... replace the bottle with the Frivole pave flower, then add a chain. But not just a boring metal chain, it needs to be an interesting necklace to complement the flower. Such drama... all for a flower! I'm going to give it one more shot on this, and quit. I'm probably trying too hard to force it.
Hands down my favorite color!
. Now I am thinking about the ring, but I would prefer the lotus ring which I don't think would pair with these pieces. I have to think about it, and there is also the flower lace brooch which is a beauty. Well, stop, Lucy and take it easy!
