We reserve the right to refuse a refund if upon receiving the item, we determine that it has been damaged, altered or resized.

Custom orders cannot be refunded or exchanged under any circumstances.

We endeavor to list each piece as accurately as possible, and provide a description of the condition along with a set of high resolution images.  Each item is guaranteed genuine.  Please do remember that many of the pieces we sell are antique or vintage, and therefore have been in existence for many years.  We see this as essential to their charm - they have been around for a long time and will generally have signs of age and may have developed a patina that we keep where possible.   The pieces are sold “as-is,” however we take care to note any distinct flaws in the description.  Most antique jewelry is not suitable to wear in water. Foil-backed items must not come into contact with water, as this will cause discoloration.
