5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely love the elegance of the plates to make this cake stand. They look great together and will dress up any table. Seller was very responsive and worked with me on combined shipping. My box arrived very quickly with everything packed securely and labeled to address the delicate contents. Very happy with the sale, just wish shipping internationally didn’t cost as much as the items themselves. Will definitely come back to this shop to see what’s new! Thank you!!

5 out of 5 starsThis vintage hand-beaded bag exceeded my expectations! I purchased it for my wedding, and it is even more beautiful and luxurious in person. If you are considering any vintage piece from this shop, trust that it is in good condition and high quality. Catherine - the shop owner - wrote a beautiful note for me, and was very accommodating by reserving this bag for me while the postal service was on strike in Canada. Thank you for a beautiful piece that will make me feel even more special on my wedding day!

Frequently asked questions
Vintage Condition
Vintage treasures have been pre-loved and consequently may have slight imperfections. Descriptions and pictures will portray items honestly. Pictures are PART OF THE DESCRIPTION, ZOOM in and take a closer look. If additional information or pictures are needed, send an email and I will be happy to help!
How accurate are the descriptions? Are the photos edited?
A Hummingbird Heirloom makes every effort to ensure descriptions are accurate and completely honest. We are value transparency and honesty in ALL we do. We want you to LOVE your purchases! Our photos ARE NOT EDITED! What you see is what you will get! The only photo editing we do, is to crop the photos, so you can see the items clearly. Please bear in mind, that colors are subjective to the device you are using and the color scale set up on that device.
How are items packaged?
A Hummingbird Heirloom stresses the importance of good packaging. We want your loved items to arrive to you in the condition you purchased them. We use good sturdy boxes, most of which are purchased new with 200lb test weight. Occasionally, recycled boxes will be used for larger or oddly shaped items but we will ensure all items are packaged extremely well! We also believe in recycling, where possible, so often shredded paper will be used to help cushion your treasures. In addition, fragile items are wrapped with layers of bubble paper to ensure they make their journey unscathed.
How are damaged shipments handled?
At A Hummingbird Heirloom, we take great pride in our products and how they are packaged. Unfortunately, damage may occur during transit, regardless of how well items are packaged.
If damage occurs, we will require pictures of the damaged item(s), all the packaging materials and the box(es). These pictures will be required for insurance claims, as all our packages are shipped with insurance. With these pictures and the pre-transit photos; determinations can be more easily made by the Postal service, in regard to insurance.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
Gift wrapping and packaging
Due to the nature of our business, most items are delicate porcelain or glass and will be wrapped with lots of bubble wrap. After carefully wrapping, we can add lots of colored tissue paper (our choice of colors) and a card. During checkout, let us know what message you would like and we will write YOUR message inside. Your gift recipient will receive your thoughtful gift and upon opening the shipping box, a gift card with YOUR message will be on top of colorful tissue paper, and their carefully chosen gift will be nestled in packing peanuts/shredded paper and wrapped with bubble paper.
During the Holiday season a Christmas themed card will be used. Other times of the year, a generic card will be used.
International Customers
All orders destined for international customers, are shipped with TRACKING! You are excited to receive your parcel, what better way to know how long you have to wait, than being able to track!
