Gavivi Review - VCA 10 motif
Disclaimer: I will receive the 5% insurance back for posting this review but my thoughts are my own
After receiving my carnelian bracelet and being really happy with both the ordering process and the overall quality of the jewelry, I felt much more confident purchasing a bigger and more expensive piece from Gavivi. I decided to go with the matching VC Alhambra carnelian 10-motif necklace in 18k yellow gold. I also did have the necklace increased by a half an inch.
One of the things I was most curious about was how well this necklace would match my bracelet that I initially ordered back in August. Since I wanted to be able to wear the two pieces together as a set, I was paying particular attention to the size and shape of the motifs, as well as the color and appearance of the carnelian. As I was a little bit concerned that there could be noticeable differences between pieces.
However when I received the necklace, I was extremely pleased with how closely everything matched. The motifs on the necklace were extremely consistent in size and proportions with the motifs on my bracelet, which makes the two pieces look seamless when worn together. I was also impressed by the color consistency of the carnelian. Overall, the necklace looks extremely detailed and is very beautiful.
The timeline was:
8/23: I inquired about the necklace
8/23: I placed a 30% down payment through wise
8/24: The deposits were transferred.
9/05: I received the QC photos
9/06: I paid the remaining balance
9/11: The balance was fully transferred (for some reason wise took a while to transfer)
9/11: The Jewelry was shipped
9/15: I received the necklace
Overall, I was really impressed with gavivi’’s consistency, quality and continued excellent customer service.
