You didn’t do your research before buying. It’s pretty well documented online how fragile Malachite is especially if you opt for their bracelet. The earrings and necklace tend to avoid this issue since they don’t really come into contact with water as much as a bracelet.
I have the malachite i bought it 9 years ago still looks new , I do use it but never with another bracelet and i always take it off when i wash my hands. They told me in the store how to take care of each stone. The most durable is the mother of pearl but i know a friend told me that it can get darker on the sides , if she wears darker clothes . The SA was trying to sell the guilloche she said it is the most durable but i saw many youtube videos saying other wise (it can be easily get scratched) In my opinions we should take care of All stones the only ones that we dont need to take care of, is the hammered Alhambra , pure gold no stones .
@@sincerehunter601sorry, I thought you were saying MOP. Onyx is the most hard wearing VCA stone. I prefer my hammered gold in the 5-motifs. None of the stones will look good still when in contact with soap, water, chemicals. Even Onyx will have a white film on the surface when wearing 24/7.
Most stones will get damaged by water sitting on them. Solid gold is the best choice for this company because it's so overpriced. Also, you can treat the stones with wax to prevent damage.
@@KC-ox1ccI wear my onyx 5 motifs since 6 years now 24/7 always, shower, bath, sea… and still in perfect condition with no white filter, please comment only if you have this bracelet or experience with VCA.
Malachite is one of the cheapest stones out there and a huge reason why it’s not often used in fine jewelry. It wears out so easily. Van cleef also uses mother of pearl a lot as well as black onyx, two more very cheap materials. They’re scamming dumb people. I would never pay $250 for a tiny piece of malachite not even worth $1. A fool and his money are soon parted!!!
I was considering buying this but didn’t because of the exact same reason. I went with the yellow gold guilloche instead and I’ve been wearing it almost daily. I think you can have the stones replaced by the store for a fee though.
I have this bracelet and would buy again and again. I knew what I was getting myself into. I don’t baby it. I just care for it. I love it. Worst ever penny for me. Plus it was a gift from my wonderful husband.
I would wear it and enjoy it before having it repaired in that case,make it worth the cost of repair,rather than babying it and still having to pay money to baby it again. Take a few months to just live in it so that its worth the repair.
My first choice out of all.. 😢 sad that I will not getting this cause this is one of the most delicate and not for daily wear.. I'll probably opt for chalcedony or red carnelian..
@@MikeyDLooffy I got one for 100 , people say they nice and ask if it’s the real one. Ofc I said no because I don’t care people wouldn’t know unless I told them .
Hi, I still think it looks nice perhaps only wear it for a special occasion. Rather than day today where it’s still lovely looking and I think you should keep it. :)
Why your gold bracelet looks like that, I mean not shine and with beautiful yellow? My parents ring are probably more than 25 years old and both rings( yellow gold 18k) looks awesome and shine.
Damn, all that money for a single bracelet and they cannot repair it for free let alone five a disclaimer on their website?! Yes, it’s about the dollar but it’s clear that they do not salute their customers as you’d be taking a risk with this purchase in particular. I’m good love.
I think this brand worth to try (if u have budget). Here u just missed information about the types of stones, that are easy to maintain and that need extra😅
You pay so much and then have to care about not being in the water is height of capitalism lol. It’s not even 24k gold or an exceptional design I don’t understand the hype. I have dainty 24 k gold bracelet I wear 24x7 rain shine hot shower soap. Not a dent. Less than half the pice of this and after 2 years now I can resell it for twice the price or more what I paid for by simply walking into any jeweller because its 24 k and basically like cash since they can melt it and make a brand new jewellery. As for the design If I like these I can simply ask the jeweller to make it 😂 as for the stone there are much better durable ones which we all know already x I’m jusy flabergasted that these are so popular and everyone is just overpaying
Wow, what a costly mistake 🤦♀️ this can all be avoided with some knowledge and research...... It's common understanding that malachite is quite soft and with a Mohs rating of 3.5 it is incredibly easy to damage. Frequent temperature changes can ruin the stones, ffs. Honestly, letting water sit on most stones is a sure way to damage them. Best practice is to take 2 minutes to treat your malachite with wax. It will save you thousands of dollars.
This is crazy I buy smthing brand and ll damage it’s happening to me too but with the blue necklace 😮i can’t imagine I should remove it when go to the beach or shower why I bought it 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Some crystals are light and/or water sensitive, just research before buying
Exactly they are jewels they still have to breathe
Makes me even more happy I got mine off shein for $1. It’s still just as pretty but for a fraction of the cost

Actually the Onyx is the most durable stone they offer.
The onyx is the best for daily wear
Second most delicate VCA stone. Cannot come into contact with water or soap either or the stone will shrink…
@@KC-ox1cc
So what's the best one for daily use

It's not van cleef fault . It's how someone takes care of bracelet . They warn that this stone is delicate

I think the black onyx stone is the best for durability out of the other ones, looks the best imo as well
Thank you for the tip!
My favorite is the mother of pearl❤

Bro bought himself something for his birthday 💀
I found a dupe for 10 quid with flowers instead of clovers and its soo cute
This bracelet is not worth the price. I don’t care for this Company. Tiffany or Cartier has better jewelry in my opinion.
I have this bracelet and would buy again and again. I knew what I was getting myself into. I don’t baby it. I just care for it. I love it. Worst ever penny for me. Plus it was a gift from my wonderful husband.

@@adamr9570sadd0!
This why I wouldn’t pay $4k+ for a bracelet 😅
800 can buy 1 why 4k😊
I got mine for free. They're fake but my mom made them.

its stone, its not damaged it just changes color
It shouldn't...
@@LLLadySSSwhy its shouldn’t ? Its real stone and thats what happen for it but yea i think they have to put something to protect it at least

Seriously. Buy what you can afford to actually use. If you have to bubble wrap it out of concern for it what's the point😂
Why do they still bother making these?
Pertanyaaanny ngapain dibeli😅 bikin repot aja
I wear my mop in the shower. 😂
Send it back for repairs. They do that.
yeah but its costly they dont do it for free
Take it off in the shower. Simple

It’s insane. Mine is like that too. Such a joke
Men shouldn’t be wearing VCA 😂
If men shouldn’t be wearing VCA, men shouldn’t have to wash dishes and cook food…
Luxury has no gender. Everyone can wear it. Such a daft!
Malachite is not good
Well it’s for a women so…….
🙄
Looks gay
Все верно, этот браслет нельзя одевать на волосатую, мужскую руку. Это женский браслет.
awww you'll live
