I know what it's like to love love LOVE and need and want a piece that seems like it was uniquely put on this Earth for you. If this isn't a frequent feeling for you, and you really genuinely want it so badly that nothing else will do, then why try to assuage that need with something that isn't perfect? Go ahead and save for it, knowing that you may have to tap that fund for something else if life takes an unexpected turn. Worst case, you'll have to spend the money elsewhere, but saving in and of itself is never bad.
That said, I'm with iLander in that I don't immediately see why that pendant costs $11K, although I'm pretty ignorant by the standards of this forum so perhaps I'm just missing something. While a replica would probably still be pretty darn expensive with all those diamonds, it seems likely to me that you could still get it for a lot less than the cost of a good used car. So I'd save up and go for a replica, myself.
