Starting Fine Jewelry Collection: Van Cleef & Arpels Cartier Necklace Vintage Sweet Magic Alhambra

[@Maria-bc6qd]

Gorgeous pieces 😻 loved your review. I’m eyeing the Cartier necklace as my next item to add to my collection ❤️

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you! Oh, you will love it

[@mllefren3y]

Thanks for the overview! The C de Cartier design is insane, you can see the whole diamond from all the angles 😍it's been on my wishlist for around 2 years, I'm finally getting it in a few weeks, ordered 0.25 in E VVS1 & rose gold. I tried it in 0.3 and 0.5 and didn't find it delicate enough, this particular design is best in smaller sizes I think. So pretty, can't wait.

[@SibyllaMirage]

You're welcome! I agree, it's way prettier when delicate and small :)

Never was a fan of the sweet butterfly pendant until I saw this video. Looks great on you!! Surprised you are selling it.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Awww, how cute, thank you

[@JenniferCahill-h5z]

Love these in depth VCA videos!

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you

[@linziibinzii]

Love your necklace collection hun ❤ Your TE stone is so pretty! Thanks for sharing that RG Sweet Alhambra tends to get dull. I have been stalking the Australian VCA website for the pendant since February this year and it never appears… maybe that’s a good thing 😂

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you very much :) Watch my designer jewelry collection linked in the description, you can see the sweet rg earrings and how dull they look. I almost never wear them..

[@fleur9439]

I have been considering the Cartier necklace this helps with my decision thanks love 😘 Would love to see your hammered specific reviews. My 3 years old 5 motifs so dull I don’t even wear it daily 🙁

[@SibyllaMirage]

You're welcome

[@fleur9439]

@@SibyllaMirage Ok I will try again. This time with a dish soup I think probably the mild soup that I used not good enough.

[@SibyllaMirage]

I actually find arm & hammer advance white tooth paste the best ever for hammered gold, but I got some comments that tooth paste is't the best to use on jewelry, so I didn't want to suggest that you do. But I think it has baking soda which polishes gold very good, and nothing ever happened to my pieces.. @@fleur9439

Hello again. I am so happy that I found your channel (awhile back). You have such a beautiful jewelry collection( much LARGER than mine); and it helps to know that I am not alone with my jewelry obsession. I am also EXTREMELY picky when I am shopping for a piece of jewelry. My son is CONSTANTLY telling me that I drive the SA’s crazy and it embarrasses him.(Apparently I must act or look like this when I am jewelry shopping and trying to choose between 2 pieces🤪).So, I rarely take him along with me anymore.However, jewelry at VCA, CARTIER, ECT., or really ANY piece of jewelry is not cheap(atleast at the places we like to shop at; when you are shopping at VCA, , CARTIER, ect.. I really never went for tiger’s eye. However, you have discussed your tiger’s eye journey in past videos. However, for whatever reason, today’s explanation and then follow up showing us your necklace up close FINALLY hit my brain (DUH) in the (ding, ding, ding)right spot!! So now I will be on the hunt. Every, single piece of your collection is outstanding(I know that your collection is much larger than just the few of the pieces that you shared with us today, but thanks for sharing. It helped me take another look at tiger’s eye and to see the beauty in YOUR piece really helped me out so thanks again for that. Sorry, just wanted to say that your Cartier necklace is so stunning!! That diamond shines like the North Star 🌟 in the sky. You are right about the color ranges of every stone, and the gold turning. Have a good week and stay well. Bye for now.❤

[@SibyllaMirage]

Hi! Thank you very much for the kind words

[@Liz86000]

I think you have the most gorgeous tiger's eye pendant ever ! Like honey indeed ! (I wish I could maybe find a butterfly in this specific shade... ). And the carnelian as well, much prettier in dark red instead of orange. Wear them in good health. Agree to disagree on the diamant léger however, I like that the diamant is surrounded by that gold ring, it makes me feel like it's safer I guess ?

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you! You will find the butterfly, just talk to your sa and wait :) That's a great point, I didn't think of the diamond pendant that way.. Thank you for sharing

[@hesterprynne5965]

I'm obsessed with your videos. Keep them coming! There aren't that many fine jewelry KZbinrs out there. BTW, I am interested in getting one of the Cartier diamond necklaces, but I'm not sure if they are "worth" the price. I'm not sure if you feel comfortable sharing the price of the C de Cartier one, but if you are, I'm curious since it's not as clear on their website. The one you have looks good on you. BTW what are your thoughts about Bulgari, Messika, and Tiffany?

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you very much, that's so nice to hear

[@colognegirl5605]

Love your videos 🥰 I bought the holiday Season pendant and I realised VCA has a new package. I think the old one was more luxury. Nevertheless I love VCA too😍

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you :) I agree, old packaging was way better

[@maggyh199]

Great video, as always! I have the same C de C necklace in YG. Which VCA sweet would you stack with it please?

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you! With the one that makes you happy

[@luxurylifestyle7425]

Hey, random question. What earrings are you wearing in this video? And are they in rose gold or yellow gold? They’re sooo pretty!!!😍

[@SibyllaMirage]

Hi, Cartier love 3 diamond in rg :) Thank you

[@quyennguyen9797]

I recently discovered your channel and I enjoy watching your videos a lot! I would love your advice on choosing between the 1 motif necklace like these vs the 10 motif necklace. I want to buy a chalcedony necklace but can't decide which version I want!

[@SibyllaMirage]

Aww, thank you very much! I think you should choose what makes you truly happy. If you will wear the 10 motif a lot, you should go for it

[@fleur9439]

I have both but I dont really wear my 10M Onxy. I think you will wear the single motif more but don’t get the MoP, choose a more hardier stone like tiger eyes, onxy or guilloche my top choice is the pave version.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Yes, I love the pave one too

[@BecomingHer_LivingC]

Hi. I’m a new subscriber and I love your videos. What do you think about the Love necklace? I have not been to a store to try on but I really like the look of the single circular design. I really want it for my first necklace.

Hi ! I really love your channel, you’re so natural and organic. I’ve learned a lot from you. I’d like to ask where do you usually sell your jewelry? I want to upgrade some so I want to sell other! Thanks

[@SibyllaMirage]

Hi! Thank you very much, this means a lot

[@Mmgodoy7]

@@SibyllaMirage thank you! Your collection is gorgeous 😍

[@madokaor3611]

Is your tiger eye in rose or yellow gold. BTW u mentioned in one of your videos that the newer sweet chain is thinner than the old chain? Just wondering if that’s true. Also do u know if the trace 42cm chain is the same as the vintage chain?

[@SibyllaMirage]

Tiger eye comes in yellow gold only, unless you special order it in rose gold and pay additional 30%. Sweet chains were a little thinner a while ago, but I'm not sure now. That might have been just a bad batch. You should check the chain for twisting by holding the motif up and letting the chain dangle in the air on both sides and it should only twist 3 or 4 times overall, that means the links are straigt. Mine were bent and made the chain twist in lot of places, and when I looked with a magnifying glass, they were like hammocks (in the sweet pieces I talked about that you mentioned), and the chain was a bit thinner. I sent those back.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Trace chain is the exact same as the vintage.

[@KimNguyen-uc3cj]

Hallo Sibylla, I had a necklace Sweet MOP...Because when I bought it, I regretted not trying with Carnelian ..😢😢😢 So and now I really really want one more,Should I choose Sweet Carnelier or Size Vintage Onyx... I hope you can give me some advice? Thks you so so much ❤❤❤❤❤ Pleaseeee

[@SibyllaMirage]

Hello! I love both of them, so it depends on your frame. Try them on. I love the sweet carnelian a lot, because it's in rose gold ;)

[@KimNguyen-uc3cj]

@@SibyllaMirage Thanks for your answer. Can I wear the Vintage size every day? Even showering without having to take it off. Because I saw someone saying not to come into contact with water. I read a lot of reviews and would love to hear yours. Better yet, can you help me choose? ? I tried them both on and I liked them, but I could only buy one of them. 🫡🫡🫡 🙏

[@SibyllaMirage]

@@KimNguyen-uc3cj I wouldn't shower with any stones, they will accumulate water stains. Both good for everyday.

[@charrisng9145]

Hi, how durable is blue agate? I like it but I'm unsure how durable it is since most of there stone are quite fragile..

[@SibyllaMirage]

Hi! Blue agate is very sensitive to chemicals. It can change color overtime. I wouldn't get for me as a bracelet, but maybe as a necklace...

Gahhhh TE is sooooo buttery good!!!!

haha thank you! It's my favorite
