I have two (not one) 20 motifs on hold for me. A Chalcedony WG and a light red carnelian. I am ignoring malachite--for now.

Any chance you'll get them both? :graucho:







You have a Chalcedony don't you? I have been dreaming of this... Do you love it? It looks stunning nested with my WG/MOP. I have a gift card, so it takes a bit of the bite off the purchase.

I do not have a chalcedony necklace but do I do have the 16 motif Magic white mop, grey mop and chalcedony. I think chalcedony is gorgeous (and agree it looks wonderful with white mop). I would love a 20 motif!


Those little gift cards make these purchases more bearable!
 
I was surprised at how much I liked the letterwood, I am hoping to buy my very first VCA sometime in the next 6 months; I really love the 10 motif, I like tiger eye which I dont see a lot of here, but I also tried on the letterwood and the rose gold was fantastic.

I really love the tiger's eye too! I find it to be one of the most versatile stones to wear. I think it goes with almost everything.

Good luck deciding on your first purchase!

Yes, there is a chance I'll get both. I have some jewelry on evilbay that I'm selling that needs to be go first. I know that the Chalcedony is VERY hard to find. There is a triple points event in April, so I'll get it then. If the jewelry sells, I'll get both.
 
I own this too. It's a fun piece.

Great pic-- looks fab on you!

I love this style! So much more me than the single motif vintage alhambra pendants. I bet the malachite is going to be beautiful too :graucho:

Very beautiful!!!

Makes me glad VCA makes a variety of styles in the vintage Alhambra, though. I Love this piece too but it's just too big on me. Love the 10 and 20 motifs also, but they're really not my style, I love the look, just more subtle...I can see myself collecting single motifs in various colors to swap around with various H scarves and outfits. Eyeing that malachite... ;)
 
I just had to share this... So totally classic, I saw the malachite in person at the VCA exhibit, it was breathtaking. Makes me want the one coming out even though I don't really wear yg.

…these malachite, tortoiseshell, and coral long Alhambra necklaces from the 1970s, which became one of the of the Maison’s signature pieces…
