VCA Sweet Alhambra or Tiffany Double Heart Pendant

[AnnaSun]

Hello beautiful ladies and gents! My sister is turning 30 next month, and I’m planning to get her a necklace. Her jewellery is mostly yellow gold and rose gold, and this will be her first designer piece. I’m considering either a VCA sweet necklace in hammered gold, or Return to Tiffany Double Heart pendant in yellow gold. She is a very active person, and wears her jewellery all the time: in shower, when working out, etc. Both necklaces cost almost the same. Which option would you prefer and is the most timeless/iconic? TIA!

Definitely the VCA. Much more classic and elegant IMO.

How nice of you!! I also prefer the VCA!

How thoughtful of you! 💕
I would also suggest VCA sweet pendant. It's elegant and timeless. In addition, I think it can be dressed up or down. IMHO heart jewellery is a bit dated - sorry!

VCA 100%. But I suspect you will not get a lot of Tiffany votes asking on a VCA thread Agree with @war_bunny15 on the dated bit. Also I think the return to T line is more of a younger look, 30 is young but the VCA will be timeless!

Another vote for VCA.

 

[lvchanellvr]

Definitely VCA

VCA!

Many thanks all of you for your votes! Looks like it’s 100% VCA then

I would do a Tiffany Elsa peretti piece or sweet hammered.

Agree re. VCA. Note, hammered gold VCA likely needs to be preordered.

Another vote for VCA sweet alhambra, great for casual wear but you can also layer it for special occasions. Tiffany double heart is only for casual days.

I expect a 30yo would appreciate the sweet alhambra better.
Last year I asked my 14yo (now 15) to choose btw Tiffany and VCA sweet, she choose the RTT double heart.
I was a little horrified but I let her have her choice because maybe the alhambra is a little dated for a 14yo girl haha

I have the RG RTT heart tag necklace that my then teenage girls picked it out years ago and I wanted us all to have matching necklaces with a Valentine's Day theme. Every time I wear it I think of them. We all still wear ours every Valentine's. They are older now and love VCA too but I do not love the Tiffany any less. That said, nostalgia aside, I would go with the hammered

Not that I have anything against the RTT necklace but it was her first luxury necklace with a bit of a special meaning so I wanted it to be more "everlasting" if that makes sense? I hope she will love it even as she ages.
