Congrats Missie1 on your beautiful new VCA bracelet!
I actually have the same one and LOVE it.
So special that the motifs are all different and unique.. makes me think of the suits on a deck of cards a bit.
Enjoy!!!

Thanks so much. I love how the motifs Are all different as well. It’s truly a special piece. just sent back to have it sized. Do you stack or wear it alone

 

[Rubies-R-Me]

Oh I hope it comes back soon.. it's a hard wait to get it back on your wrist when it's so new!
I usually wear it stacked with my white gold Alhambra bracelet. I feel that way I have all bases of gold covered and can wear a yellow gold watch or a white gold watch (on the other wrist) and it will match.

 

[Missie1]

I love this in white gold. I was trying to figure out my next purchase and this is definitely it. It will be copying your look

 

[Rubies-R-Me]

Fun! Sounds like a plan!
Alone or stacked the Lucky bracelet is so delightfully whimsical... love it.
I bought them both last year... the white gold first and then the Lucky.
OT.. Having this bracelet also made me appreciate gemstones more. My parents were big gem and mineral collectors back in the 60s and 70s. On a shelf, just gathering dust, my mother had a big chunk of malachite and a big chunk of tiger's eye. Off to my house they went and are proudly displayed in my den. She was so happy that I wanted them! It was win/win all around.

 

[Rubies-R-Me]

Also.. do you plan to wear it alone or with a watch?

 

[Missie1]

I will have to wait holidays for next one as I bought 3.4 carat studs also last week. I love how the minerals match the bracelet. That is so cool and sentimental.

Also.. do you plan to wear it alone or with a watch?

I am thinking with my two tone Rolex 36 mm on same arm. I wear two loves on my right arm and I don’t want to scratch them

 

[Rubies-R-Me]

Oh my! Earrings too! Now you are truly bedecked and bedazzled.
Can you post pix of them?
And yes.. thanks about the malachite and tiger's eye. Having those rocks in my house does give me a warm and sentimental feeling about my childhood being dragged to gem and mineral shows with my parents. Crazy how much I hated it all then and now it's such a passion.

 

[Rubies-R-Me]

Two tone Rolex sounds like perfect match.
Funny you mention LOVES on the other wrist. Originally I stacked the white gold Alhambra with my white gold LOVE but after about a week I took the LOVE off because I felt like they were scratching each other. I'm curious how you feel about your new Lucky and your watch.. whether either are getting scratched up. You will have to give a full report.

[Rubies-R-Me]

Wow wow wow!! Those are gorgeous!! LOVE the 3 prong setting.. you really get to see all stone.

I love the look of these two together but the damage to the love would freak me out. I totally see why you removed it

 

[Rubies-R-Me]

Yes.. I loved the look as well but I am super protective of the LOVE as you are too.
I actually have wrist sweatbands stashed all over my house and in my pocketbook to cover my bracelet when I am doing something that it might get scratched.

 

[Missie1]

Wow wow wow!! Those are gorgeous!! LOVE the 3 prong setting.. you really get to see all stone.

Thanks so much. I love the martini setting as it just allows the stones to sparkle and not be obstructed. I upgraded from 1.8 tcw to these. I wanted to go as big as possible since I had to spend at least double for upgrade. I felt that under 3 carats wasn’t providing visual difference. These are definitely a wow factor
