Etoupebirkin, leave room for my name too on that necklace. I love it. Wish they had a modeling photo of that on the neck because I thought I liked the bracelet but it doesn’t look very nice on the wrist. The chain appears too fragile for the flowers; seems like they would catch on any and everything and that fragile chain would just break.

It’s the New York exclusive I believe ... the white gold and onyx
but if I recall there was a store exclusive previously with the white gold onyx. It’s slipping my mind the name of the store. They had the 20 and the bracelet some of our members got them I believe. Love to see modeling shots to enable me please [emoji173]️
This!! I feel everything you’re saying @Happyish! Perhaps I feel this way because I’m not a VIP anywhere and would feel differently if I made it to that status with my SA but as it stands, I definitely echo your sentiments!
I’m a VCA newbie so maybe the experts can chime in but from my obsessive reading/research on the stones here, all stones are delicate and should be cared for (avoid water, wipe down, etc) but having said that the most durable of the stones available would be onyx. I tried on the onyx 10 motif and was shocked at how much I loved it! The onyx bracelet is perfect!
So I did it... I went to Birks to look at the guilloche bracelet and fell in love with the shine! Guilloche is breath taking! I ended up ordering a ten motif necklace but unfortunately it won’t be in until 6-8 months later. I didn’t have to put a deposit down for it which was awesome. My SA is from Birks and she is just lovely. She doesn’t mind me browsing, asking a ton of questions or coming in to try things on without buying. I don’t think I’ll ever buy VCA without her!
I also tried on the large frivole earrings and fell in love. They were surprisingly not that large on my tiny ears (maybe because I have a big face to balance it out or lots of dark hair) and that warm glow from the reflective petals was more beautiful that I imagined! I’ve decided these large YG frivoles will be my second VCA purchase. I can see why everyone loves the frivole line! My SA aaid she’ll be calling me to try the new frivole items as well as the two butterfly items (way out of my budget there but hey I won’t say no to eye candy!).
Lastly she brought a 10 motif onyx necklace for me because she thought it would go nice with my coloring. When I put it on it was just “wow”. I had never considered onyx as I assumed MOP would be what I would get if it came down between the two but wow. Onyx was amazing. It brought attention to my neck and contrasted nicely against my tanned skin with dark hair. I loved it and can see why so many ladies love this.

Those Frivole earrings are gorgeous. And they suit you so well!!
Wow! Love the Frivole line. Any idea of prices? Where are these pictures from? Thanks
The pics are from my SA.
I just know the price of the between the finger ring and it is $9150
It’s the New York exclusive I believe ... the white gold and onyx
Without the pave can be ordered but it’s a SO, must be approved and there is a premium
Dover Street MarketIt’s the New York exclusive I believe ... the white gold and onyx
Yes I remember that from late 2017 but it’s limited, correct?
As others have said, it appears WG with onyx will need to be SO at a premium. If it can be SO without a premium, please let me know since that would be awesome!
