Yes, I can answer your question regarding turquoise color variations. I have the single turquoise pendant (my first piece of VCA) and it is a medium turquoise color ---very vibrant but not as bright turquoise as my YG 20 motif. I also have the vintage alhambra earrings (ear clips) which I bought a few years after my 20 motif and the turquoise is almost a match which is hard to do if you are buying two tens separately. I will see if I have a photo of only my turquoise pieces. Just remember there is a variation in turquoise but they are all gorgeous.

Wow! what a stunning collection, Kimber! Everything is so pretty.
 
Hello, Ladies!


I got my onyx Alhambra pendant back from being lengthened and it is PERFECT! I can't stop admiring it! Funny how adding that one little inch made the whole thing look more proportionate on me! My new SA even included a travel pouch and a sweet note. I could totally get used to being spoiled like this! :-)

That is exquisite! Your hand and beautifully manicured nails showcase it perfectly! I'm jealous on so many levels (the ring, the pretty manicure, etc...) My fingernails always look piano-teacher short and grubby...definitely not worthy of a ring like THAT!!!! Enjoy! :-)

Glad you love your pendant back and you love it! Can I ask how much you lengthened the pendant? I just sent my holiday pendant and was not sure how much to add. It is my first time lengthening a VCA piece! My SA said it takes one week. Is that about how long yours took?

Did you get the Vintage Alhambra black onyx?

Hi Kimber! Yes, I got the Alhambra pendant in onyx and I love it!!! I just had it lengthened by one inch, which was perfect. Because I'm 5'7". the shorter chain just looked like a choker on me. Lol. It took less than a week, which was much faster than I had expected. Hope you get yours back soon! :-)
