Hoping someone will chime in-- the $3,300.00 vintage Alhambra ring with a single diamond in the center, does anyone know what carat weight/size the diamond is?

Thank you!

Just gorgeous! Thank you for sharing with us.

I am actually thinking about getting a 10 motif neck and a matching bracelet to wear as a longer chain, but then I thought if I should just get a diamond solitaire for that amount of money.

It's really a headache and seeing your pictures does not help. :p

Awww... I left early, just for you...

So, I've wanted malachite ever since I saw Princess Graces's 20 motif at the VCA museum show a few years ago. I didn't buy it initially because I don't really wear a lot of yg, but I guess I wear more than I realized... I really love the green color.

My store has had no malachite bracelets or magic pieces for a while and then, like magic, before the price increase, these came in!!

My personal preference is vintage MOP because I love the sheen and versatility of mop and you already have an onyx DY. I find the sweet range too small for me but that's just my preference. Good luck to choosing your first VCA and I am sure you will enjoy it! (I dare say I doubt it will be your last either! It's a slippery slope ahead!!!)

Thanks for the feedback mad_for_chanel and PheonixH! I am leaning towards the vintage mop now.

My SA said that the perlee bangle that I was considering (plain one) was not going to increase in price. Not sure about the rest of the perlee range though. Most of the Alhambra range would be up around 6% according to my SA

Is this the yg or the dismond version?
If you are considering the plain one, GET IT.
This is such a great bracelet. It fits comfortably on the arm and it's so shiny.
Love it.

It's always so much fun to read this thread right before a price increase.
Have they stopped producing malachite pieces?
This makes me feel thankful to have purchased my pieces when I did....

No, they just seemed to be a little harder to find. I asked about the bracelet/necklace a few months ago. She called yesterday 💚💚💚. I still want the 20 motif, but it costs so much comparatively.
