The Ficcare Thread (Formerly "Show me your Ficcare color")

[eresh]

Thanks
Ficcares are so beautiful, I have to wear them more often!!
I'm always a bit scared they would get damaged somehow.

Been looking at the site and there are many pretty new designs!
(but too expensive for me with int. shipping plus customscharges + customadministrationcharges )
So I'll cherish the ones I already have.

OH man, this is so pretty! I desperately want a large ficcarissimo lol, wish the site sold them

I wonder why they don't sell them in L anymore...

^^the older collection has different colors and in my opinion the pattern on it is crisper looking. Like the new one is kinda blobby is comparison? LOL, if that doesn't make sense i can take a comparison picture, it might just be me.

Oh, hmm, that is interesting for sure! I would love a comparison pic if you ever have extra time and are maybe taking pics of other stuff anyway, but don't go out of your way or anything, I'm just mildly curious!

I wonder why the new ones are more blobby? Maybe they use like the same molds they always have, and they have worn down a bit, so the older ones look better?

ugh, me too!! I actually emailed them about it one time, lol, and asked if they were ever going to bring them back because I desperately wanted one!
They totally ignored my question and sent a one sentence email back suggesting I try a medium one.
Like, yeah, thanks, not what I was asking LOL.
But I Guess at least they bothered to respond at all to a random email?

[eresh]

I hate when a company does that.
Ignoring the question and trying to sell you something else.

i love your Ficcares, eresh! Glittery Tortoise will always be one of my all time favorites.

It's not just you. I much prefer the older primaveras for that reason.

will do! It's like the new ones have more spots and the older ones have more vines? I only have the one new collection one, it's yellow and has spots so i think of it as my cheetah clip.

and a week later...i'm back! I've been working a lot, but for what it's worth i've worn a Ficcare most of that time.

new primavera (left) vs original primavera (right). See how the new pattern is more spotty?





and nothing too exciting, but here's the pink and lime silkies i picked up in the sale. I'm especially loving the lime, though i feel like my lime is a slightly different shade than other limes i've seen? I might be losing my mind though...

[sapphire-o]

Hele I think you're right. The new primavera reminds me of flooded islands. It's possible that they put the paint on too thick?

Your new silkies are pretty, too. I hope they hold another sale when Covid is over.

LOL, global warming got the primaveras!

Oh wow, you weren't kidding on how different they are! I think the one with more vines is nicer
