Very exciting! You know how much I love my 3 Flower earrings, so I think you are going to really, really enjoy yours! Congratulations.

The Frivole ring is very pretty as well, especially in the WG because the diamonds really "pop." Great choices!

Thank you! Yes I love seeing your mod shots. I wonder how long it will take for them to become available? It will be a happy surprise when they do!

Congratulations. I absolutely adore the single pave wg Frivole ring on you! That piece is just so wearable and yet blingy! And it can be resized if you ever need to in the future (let's hope not). Blue agate is going to be an amazing addition too! So happy for you.

Thank you so much for your kind words! :love: I can’t wait to share as my pieces come in (and fingers crossed my SA can get ahold of the three flower mini frivole earrings too).

I also want to mention that my SA said the yellow sapphire two butterfly pendant is discontinued. :sad: So I do wonder if the rings and earrings are next on the chopping block?

I was told not discontinued, just that getting rarer.

I know that the two butterfly 🦋 earrings for both sapphires are non-orderable but i am not sure of the pendant and BTFR.

Interesting. My SA might be mistaken but she didn’t mince her words, she definitely said discontinued. I hope you’re right because I still haven’t seen the yellow and would love to.

I know one of our local influencers (Chloebeth) got her Yellow Sapphire pendant not too long ago around fall 2024, and she got the matching BTFR WG/Yellow Sapphire not long after.

I also took a picture at another boutique where i am residing at (in Asia) that the earrings were on display sometime around Sep-24 and my boutique also received the same one pair.

Around late Nov-24 last year nearing Christmas, I did receive a call from our Eboutique offering me this pair too.

Anyway, just listing so that you have an indication about some stocks in the other part of the world.

I had a fun session trying on items in search of my first VCA ring! My home store is the Aspen, Colorado location, and my wonderful SA brought in the Folie des Pres ring for me to view, along with several others. I was almost certain I would be taking home or ordering a two butterfly ring today but I was wrong! After trying on several lovely rings (FdP, frivole BTF, two butterfly WG pave and pink sapphire/pave, and flowerlace and YG four motif mini frivole BTF) I became absolutely smitten with the WG single frivole ring! I loved it immediately way more than all the rest. I couldn’t believe the sparkly impact it had and it’s SO wearable. It’s just me! So that opened up the rest of my budget to other goodies.
I did not get to try on a YG ring that I really wanted to see (perlee diamond pave) as apparently it’s quite rare, but my boutique happened to have a blue agate 10 motif that I tried on with my mini 3 frivole pendant and my zodiaque. I quite like the look of both, but wasn’t sold on the shade (I prefer more pale). She said there were only 2 in America, but I don’t want to make a decision based on scarcity so I declined for now.

I decided to go with the 3 flower mini frivole earrings (been wanting these for a long time!) which were not only unavailable but not able to be ordered so I earmarked my budget for when those come in. And I ordered the blue agate bracelet, which I’ve been thinking about for a very long time, but there is a one month wait for that one. The frivole ring I ordered is a 3-6 month wait.
So while I came home with NOTHING, I am excited for 3 new pieces to trickle in this year. Below are some try-on photos for y’all! Oh and I got to try on the 20 motif pave/guilloche because I wanted an idea of how long the 20 was and that was the only one in the store. It’s stunning, but not practical for my lifestyle. I also got to try on two Poetic Complication watches which were so pretty! Thanks for letting me share my fun day!

what a fun event. @Swellgal huge congratulations! 3 pieces are coming you way. I do agree with other ladies here, the single frivole looks the best out of the rings you tried. :hugs:
the blue agate is very beautiful on you, good choice. and of course, the 3 flower earrings plus your pendant would be a gorgeours set! so excited for you!

Y’ALL!!! My frivole single ring came in!! I was quoted 3-6 months and it came in in less than ONE WEEK! Ah! I love it so much!! I don’t have my tennis bracelet on in this photo because it’s at our local jewelers getting rhodium plating to match my pave sweet six bracelet. In the sun it catches all the colors of the rainbow! It’s so pretty! Thanks for letting me share! I really love this community.
