It doesn't matter if if bothers us--the point is, it bothers you. Do not settle just because your sales person thinks is not a big deal. It sounds like you would be happier if it did not have an obvious striation.View attachment 5270247
I recently purchased the 3 motif gold earrings. I absolutely love them, however, the gray magic motif (left earring) has a dark inclusion on the stone. I asked my SA about it and he does not think it’s a big deal (he was kind about it).
Would this bother you? I’d love your perspective - Please help
This is not costume jewelry. At this price point, you should get exactly what you want--and love.
Can someone please tell me how long it took for you to receive the SO pieces? I have placed an order in July and still waiting. Initially, I didn’t care too much how long it takes but now after waiting for 6 months, just starting to wonder how much longer I will have to wait. I have asked my SA but she doesn’t seem to know.
It isHave enjoyed reading about the Liane here, I'd love to see it in person. Sounds spectacular!
Unfortunately, no one can tell you because it varies greatly. We've seen others waiting that long. It could be one week or even one year. I actually called to get SO pricing on something last fall, and the SA said she had one in the store (that I assume the customer changed her mind about)!!! That's likely the record for a special order piece as I got it a couple of days later! Hope you don't have to wait too much longer, but I wouldn't be worried if it is. They are very far behind in replacing regular stock in stores and probably have more SOs as a result.
No SA can answer how long it takes so I have applied for return and money back.
I have a lot of delay gratification moments in life so for this time, I just hope to get some quick fix.
Hope you get your piece soon.
Hello, the photos are gorgeous! I am a newbie in Cartier. Your Etincelle de Cartier is WG, I think.. Do you have any problems with it in daily use? I mean does the color change?
In my experience if it’s longer than 6 months then it’s only few more weeks. You are just at 6 months mark and with Covid I would give another month or two.
Hi! Yes mine is in WG. No issues at all. I haven’t noticed any changes and I’ve been wearing it almost daily for 5 years.
So I finally picked up my Perlee clover ring last week! I love it so much but just have a question for any ladies who also own the ring…
How tight or loose does the ring fit on your finger? I was between sizes and opted for the larger size to allow for any swelling or even my knuckle enlarging with age. 50% of the time, I feel happy with the larger size as I live in a tropical country and my fingers certainly swell somewhat whilst walking and outside in the heat (I also have a fear of the sausage finger effect
).When the ring is like this, it looks good and feels secure.
However… the other 50% of the time when my hands are cooler, the ring does feel a little loose to the extent where I’m worried that it could slip off my finger relatively easily. The ring is heavy and I’m so worried that when my fingers are like this the weight of the ring could cause it to fall off and I could loose it.
Would be so grateful for any input or suggestions for those who also own the ring (or of course anyone else)!
The image here is how it looks when it feels relatively secure…

This happens to me all the time. When the ring feels loose, I wear it on my middle finger.
