of Pendants & Patches…

I first heard of this Perlini’s Silver Vespa pendant last April when two pieces of the flat design were up for sale in this Vespinoy forum thread. My riding buddies who got ‘em swore the item looks really good for its price. I thought so too that’s why I placed an order for the next batch. But sadly, it was out of stock.
I was hoping to order it somewhere online so I googled Perlini’s Silver Vespa and the search led me to the site of Vespa Club of Singapore and learned from there that the city has several Perlini’s Silver stores. The next chance I got there, my daughter & I visited the branch nearest our hotel and I was surprised that there’s another Vespa pendant in 3D design with a two-tone enamel coating (red & white). With my daughter’s thumb’s-up, I bought the two designs. She never saw any of those pendants again until I brought one out yesterday… HER 8TH BIRTHDAY!
After the fanfare and ‘chaos’ from a simple birthday party with her cousins, we settled down in our room so that wifey and I could personally hand our gifts to our daughter. I gave her the Vespa pendant and she liked it. Now she knew that one of those wasn’t just for me.
Her mimma’s gift was even more special. Remember Giffy who got lost in Hong Kong? Well, our daughter got another giraffe to hug; but instead of orange spots, it’s got five colorful patches. Hence we call her by the name… ‘Patches!’ Here Kite with our gifts.

Of course, it wasn’t just our daughter who got excited about ‘Patches’ arrival. Look who’s looking even more happy…

With their excited arms around the new arrival, no one gets to see where Patches’ patches really are. Anyway, we’re just glad to see that Giffy Mimi having the time of her life being a mom again.
Happy Birthday, Kitty girl!

Those pendants look slick, may look into getting some myself.
They do, Danny. Thanks for dropping by.
Hi, I’m looking for this pendent too. Which perlini’s shop in Singapore did you go to and how long ago? Thanks
Hi Rubic! I bought the pendants three months ago at Perlini’s branch in Ngee Ann City along Orchard Rd.
Cool pendants! Oh and cute addition to Giffy Mimi’s family!
I wonder if anyone could pick one up for me and send it to the uk?
Thanks Nyree!
Danny, you may ask the Vespa Club of Singapore if anybody there would be willing to get one for you. Good luck!
Hi John,
I’m over the moon now!
Thanks for the info. I’m from Singapore and found the scooter pendant today as I was near Ngee Ann City and decided to pop by. According to the Vespa Club Singapore forum, they were out of stocks for about a month!
Danny,
I can send you a pendant. Please leave your email address so we can discuss this.
That’s good news, Rubic! Glad to be of help. Glad too that you could assist Danny with his request for the same pendant.
John, I’m just passing it forward!
It’s such a serendipitous find as I fully expected to be disappointed :p I only saw the flat silver pendant and I’m not sure if they have the enamelled one but can ask. The irony is that I first saw it on Vespa Club Singapore forum, then read that it was sold out. So I googled and found your website!
this entry was shown yesterday in mel and joey
It’s serendipitous that you found your way here, rubic.
Thanks for passing the info, Pao. Too bad I didn’t get to see it.
John, do you have Danny’s email address? I can’t seem to find it on his website. Thanks.
I’ve already sent him an email, Rubic. Hopefully he checks back in here to read that you’re willing to buy the pendant for him.
Cool! I don’t want to post my email address here in case I get swamped with requests as I’m not great at coping with logistics
