As someone who worked with high end jewellery, warm water, blue dawn dish soap and a soft toothbrush are your best friends for cleaning! Diamonds shine like crazzzy after

Totally with you on the butterfly. I love VCA but I prefer the alhambra 🥰 Beautiful necklace!

[AyakoLuckySeven]

I also have the same necklace, but here are my extra thoughts about it:
- The chain keeps rolling up and getting tighter on my neck, so I have to constantly unroll it or else it starts to choke me 😂

- The chain is a little too tight for me, but you can have it extended for free for up to 5cm, extra length will cost you and if you want to reverse it, it will cost you. So i got it extended and it took a week and I love it.

Same I just purchased the vintage onyx two months ago and I went in wanting the mother of Pearl and they convinced me to get the onyx. I will probably go back and get the mother of pearl because I like the color for spring and summer.

Loooove this necklace! And love your videos on Sunday mornings it’s the perfect time to post 🤍

[melanienguyen]

Vca customer service is always great and helpful and I think the onyx choice or the guilloche necklace is the best choice. However, I love the carnelian and malachite as well.

[kewpieluver]

i learned that they recommend not letting the stone touch water because they put a thin layer of chemicals over the stone to keep it shiny and the hot water makes it more dull over time. i think it also depends on the stone too, malachite is very delicate so i wouldn’t recommend it for daily wear but onyx is super durable and you can’t tell the wear and tear 🥳

Thanks for doing this video because I have been on the fence about buying one of these for awhile!!! As always great video and have a fabulous week😍👌🏾👏🏾‼️

[perthfanny]

Thank you!
I wish they had an intermediate size between sweet and vintage^^
I also wish they made the sweet size in onyx 😔
I have the MOP in the sweet size (the same one as you want). It looks dull on my fair skin (still looks beautiful though).
I don't like the rose gold from VCA. It looks way too coppery. I like it better when it looks softer

[dorzmelendez]

Love how u review . Sincere and honest .

[mbelieve]

I keep thinking of trying an onyx piece. I am torn between that and the small frivole earrings. It looks great on you. I agree that VCA has the best customer service. I have been to almost everyone of their boutiques in Vegas and I have received great service every time.

[vi-vienkhong-huynh]

I’ve been waiting for your thoughts on this necklace!! I got the same one, same colour, same size around the same time as you too 🖤 love it and wear it every day. Next on my list is the guilloché… what else would you get from VCA?

[chanelsparksjoy]

✨So informative, thank you! Love how you included your wishlist!!

[elena]

You totally inspired me to get the vintage onyx same as yours. I thought about sweet but after seeing it on you i ve been loving it!

[MissPaoPal]

Love your review and honest opinion❤ I’m recently thinking of buying one, still debating among the onyx, full gold and mother of pearl… your review is certainly helpful 😊

[ajRo_]

Hello Je suis Lou, thank you for your honest review! I love and agree with what you mentioned about the VCA customer experience. We just passed by one of their boutiques in Vancouver, and they welcomed us with free drinks. However, the sweet Alhambra piece that I was hoping to try on was not available, and the jewelry specialist said that it might take 2-3 months if we place an order... If you have any more thoughts or similar experiences about placing an order, that would be greatly appreciated. Anyway, totally love your Black Onyx Vintage Alhambra; looks perfect on you 💕

[ailenerheahlaing]

You’ve just convinced me to get this! Love it! G’day from Sydney, Australia!

[MightyMonk]

I enjoyed watching this video, you seemed very passionate about what you’re talking about so I decided to get me an onyx cross for my birthday. I was skeptical but you’ve sold me on it being sturdy I’m getting mine from David Yurman they make really nice jewelry for men and women they aren’t well known like Cartier and other brand but they are definitely up there like VC&A

[tiffanystephens]

Love this necklace. I just bought one. Ever since seeing you wearing it I had to have one!!

[chenclive]

I agree with you, I have been in the jewelry business for the past 14 years.
