How do you take your measurements?

I measure items and put the measurements in the listings, these are usually measured in millimetres. If there is any part I haven't measured that you would like to know about please do message me. Gemstones are measured in the settings, however I do try to measure as much as possible just the gemstone and not the settings. To remove from the setting may damage your item and this is why I leave them.

I often get asked if the gemstones are real. The answer is yes, all the gemstones in the shop are real, unless they are called paste or glass. Gemstones can be natural or laboratory created. Laboratory created gemstones are real gemstones and have the same chemical make up as natural stones. It is estimated that the majority of gemstones on the market are treated or enhanced in some way. This is something that has been done for very many years. Heat treatment is the most common forms. So what can we take from this information? Approximately 80% of gemstones on the market have been treated in some way. There are many, created and natural gemstones on the market. Rest assure I am always as accurate as possible with shop listings.

Most countries now have Klarna available to them on Etsy which allows you to spread the payment costs for items, usually up to three split payments. Items over £100 I can offer a lay-away plan. Please message me and tell me which item you are interested in putting on lay-away. We can then go over the details, and I will require a minimum deposit to be agreed, usually 25% minimum of the item value. I do require items to be paid off with in the agreed period usually no more than 8 weeks. Please do remember your lay-away plan dates and when to pay and how much you have outstanding, this is your responsibility. Payments are final and cancelled layaways will result in a 10% total item value charge. More details when we chat, Emma

Do you accept Returns?

Yes, I accept returns. I do require to be asked within 3 days of receipt. I am very careful with my listings, and request my customers, whom are wonderful by the way, to please make sure they read and check the descriptions and measurements properly. Any returns MUST be returned in all the original condition, packaging and boxes, wrapping etc and returned to the full address (which you must ask for), insurance if required, and sign for on delivery. This protects you as a buyer and me too. Returned items must be labelled RETURNS, if I get charged any taxes for your return this will be deducted from your refund.

All pre loved jewellery deserves some care and attention. Recommendations; You may have to take your occupation / lifestyle into account when choosing jewellery that you wear daily as opposed to special occasion wear. Need help? Just ask. Please store jewellery in a suitable jewellery box, in a safe clean, dry environment. Clean jewellery with great care, particularly antique pieces. If unsure I do recommend seeking professional help. Remove jewellery before doing activities such as washing up and house work, avoid chemicals, sandy beaches, sea and swimming pools! It is a good idea to have your jewellery checked over every 6 months by a good local jeweller to ensure the claws are still good, and the settings are sturdy etc.

A sweet vintage brooch crafted in 9ct yellow gold with cultured pearls.

This quaint gold brooch features two acorns on an Oak leaf branch. The nuts of the acorn are two beautiful satiny cultured pearls.

Why an Oak and acorn brooch? What I love about vintage jewellery is that every piece tells a story, I think this brooch has some very sweet symbolism. Oak is thought to symbolise strength, endurance, power and ancient wisdom. This beautiful brooch features two acorns perhaps signifying the strength of a relationship between two people.
This lovely piece would make the ideal gift or special treat for someone special, be it romantic or otherwise. Lovers of nature will be drawn to this brooch.

Brooch Size; 28mm x 25mm approx.

Marks; Back of brooch is marked with crown '375' for 9ct gold, Birmingham assay, letter date for 1982.

Weight; 4.2g approx.

Condition; very good vintage condition with minimal wear.
