Look what came home with me!
Not sure what earrings to wear with this . . .
I'm debating whether I want to add the matching bracelet or the earrings sometime in the future (preferably before they're discontinued). It would be one or the other, but not both.
Opinions welcome.

I love this look on you!
For earrings, may I suggest the Perlee pave diamond earrings?
Perlée diamonds earrings Yellow gold, Diamond- Van Cleef & Arpels (vancleefarpels.com)
I would then get the matching ring! It's so big and bold! :nuts: :heart: :heart: :heart:
Bouton d’or ring Rose gold, Diamond- Van Cleef & Arpels (vancleefarpels.com)
For bracelets, I would wear your Clovers.

If you want to add some color and like the red theme...
You could do the Carnelian Couleurs earrings:
Perlée couleurs earrings Rose gold, Carnelian- Van Cleef & Arpels (vancleefarpels.com)
And get the red carnelian ring:
Bouton d'or ring Rose gold, Carnelian, Diamond, Mother-of-pearl- Van Cleef & Arpels (vancleefarpels.com)
It would be such a nice little pop of color.

Just some thoughts. The necklace looks stunning on you! Congratulations!

As they explained it, the turquoise/lapis is not discontinued. In December there was one pendant necklace available in Asia but it sold . . . There were no others in the company, and they wouldn't make another.

I assume it has to do with the availability of the materials--the lapis and turquoise are difficult to source whereas the gold, onyx, MOP, chrysoprase and carnelian appearing in the other Bouton d'or pieces don't pose the same issues.

I believe the other pieces in the collection are available, but I don't know for how long. I was told there are no bracelets in my size in the US, but one could be ordered so it's available--I just have to wait. I don't know about other pieces.

However, it seems that so many of these collections are available for a limited period and are then are phased out. For example, remember the Perlee hoops? Remember the perlee hoops with diamonds? All gone. The same too with the large Zodiac pendants. On the other hand, popular lines such as Alhambra, which is obviously a strong seller, remain active, whereas the more unique pieces seem to have a shorter lifespan.

Thats why you have to pull the trigger on the less mass designs, sorry if i sound too enabling. But if you like something its good to keep this in mind. :heart:

Opinion: Gorgeous. Gorgeous. Gorgeous.

I think simple diamond studs would be perfect. You want something that will work seamlessly. A matching bracelet…. That’s another story. If it were me, that’s where I’d out my $$$.

To my profound consternation or joy (take your pick) there is only one bracelet left in my size.
The slippery slope of VCA . . .
