FYI: Pandora Retirement Wave 2016 pt.1

Today’s post will feature the small list I had initially posted in February followed by more items that are being discontinued. This list is the official retirement list for 2016. This list may be incomplete but all you have to do is check back regularly to see if any more items have been added. Also a reminder that this list is for North America or at least the US. Here now is the list of charms only, I will be making a separate post on non-charm jewelery.

 

Plain sterling silver, with enamel and stones:

 

Disney:

 

Two tone charms:

 

 

Rose Gold (Pandora Rose):

 

Gold:

 

 

MLB:

 

My observations are these: if you wanted any of the MLB charms, I suggest you order or buy now from your local LS as it looks like they are slowly phasing them all out, this is not the first time my retired posts have featured MLB charms, for whatever reasons Pandora no longer has the MLB licensing so get them now before they are gone. Second, as I mentioned in my last retirement post some Disney charms are being pulled and this makes sense in order to make room for new Disney charms, in case you can’t make out which tiaras are leaving the collection they are the Snow White, Belle and Ariel tiaras. Third, I am truly shocked to see the red Sparkling Surprise present leaving the collection!!! From what I heard it was a great seller, sold out from most stores last year when it was just released and it was all over the Pandora Christmas campaigns. I can’t understand why it’s being discontinued already, perhaps it wasn’t cost effective to produce, who knows, again if this is on your wish list get it now before it’s too late. I’ve had the Clouds Silver Lining on my wish list and I already checked with my store and they are already sold out so now I’ll have to look elsewhere.

Another surprise for me is the two tone Sunburst clip. I do have to say for now it is unconfirmed but once I know for sure that it is being discontinued I will update this post.

Update: as of 3/25/16 I just confirmed the two tone Sunburst clip is indeed retiring.  It seems like a very popular clip, it’s on their two tone Iconic bracelet gift set, perhaps they will be coming out with a newer version of it then or my information can be wrong.

Update: as of 6/5/16 you can see Pandora is retiring a lot of the rose charms, I wonder if this is the beginning of the end for Pandora Rose. I really hope not as I have yet to finish buying what’s in my wish list still!

Stay tuned for the second part of this post where I will be posting the earring, rings and everything else non-charm that is being discontinued.
