I'm not a high value jewelry purchaser. Does anyone know the inventory for Alhambra at this location? I'm curious since both boutiques are so close in distance. Also, can someone describe the shopping experiences regarding Fifth Avenue vs. Madison Avenue impressions - a bit deeper? Thank you in advance!!

I have been to both boutiques, most recently the newer Madison Avenue location. In my experience there was much more Alhambra on display/in cases at the Fifth Avenue boutique (as well as other lines such as Perlee, Frivole, etc.) Of course, both locations will have more stock stored out of sight. If you want Alhambra but aren’t sure which piece I would start with the Fifth Avenue boutique. I think there will be more out in cases that you can walk by and get a sense of what is possible. Whichever boutique you choose you will see many lovely things!
I've been to both locations. The fifth avenue location has more jewelry in display cases. At the Madison Ave location, we were seated and asked which pieces we were interested in seeing. They had some of the pieces, and brought those out. Fifth avenue VCA is more touristy and you can walk around and browse more. Madison Avenue VCA is for when you know exactly which pieces you want and want to avoid the crowds.
