Do you offer layaway plans?

We offer layaway plans for non-sale items above $100. There is a 25-35% nonrefundable deposit with the balance due within 30-45 days. I am happy to discuss details and work with you in many cases; just ask.

Do you offer refunds and returns?

I guarantee all items to be as described and stand behind my merchandise. If you are not satisfied, contact me and send it back in same condition as was received w/in 2 days of receipt. with tracking, postmarked within 2 days of contacting me. CLEARANCE/SALE items FINAL. NO RETURNS. NO refund on shipping charges. Items w/ FREE shipping: that means the cost is built into the price & my actual cost will be subtracted from refund. (example: a $30 pin inc shipping, returned, receives $25 refund to account for my $5 domestic insured shipping fee to ship it) A 20% restocking fee will apply if returned past the 2 day return period postmarked date. All sales FINAL if not contacted w/in 2 days of receipt or if returned after 7 days.

What shipping services do you use?

I ship with the US Postal service and I am happy to discuss shipping options with you should you wish to use another service. Insurance is usually purchased separately from an outside party from the USPS. I base my shipping on current USPS prices. Oversized packages can be subject to a surcharge by the USPS. I'm happy to combine items to save on shipping costs.

What if an item is damaged?

Please do not return it. Items are insured through either the USPS or a third party. Simply save all packing materials and the item and contact me immediately for instructions. It's rare that a claim is necessary, but it does happen from time to time and can be a relatively simple and quick process to get your investment refunded.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes, I ship all over the globe. Please note that you may be charged customs fees in your country which are beyond my control. Shipping rates are based on first class mail with upgrades available upon request. The shipping fees stated includes insurance, which is required and generally adds about $2 per $100 of coverage to the shipping total. I'm NOT responsible for any taxes or customs charges from other countries. If a package is not picked up and returned to me, I do not offer refunds on the item or on shipping costs. It's the customer's responsibility to retrieve their packages from their postal service or customs. Again: NO REFUND if package is returned to me.

How much is shipping and how is that configured?

Simply click on "SHIPPING & POLICIES" tab under the photo of the item you'd like, and your shipping price will be revealed based on your US zip code or international destination. The shipping amount generally also includes insurance, which is purchased from an outside company. So when you receive your item, the package will often not reflect those insurance costs since it is bought online. You can go to www.usps.com to view the latest rates from which these shipping amounts are calculated. PLEASE NOTE: Etsy charges commission on shipping fees up to about 18% if item is purchased through an offsite ad. I am opposed to this, however, I cannot do anything to change it other than to petition Etsy to stop this practice.

FREE SHIPPING PROMOTION

Highlights

Handpicked by familyjewelsatlanta
Vintage from the 1940s
Materials: Fabric, metal, silk

This hard to find rare Red Cross nursing student badge belonged to a good friend of mine’s mother in the 1940s. This is from her estate and has never been offered online before.

The tiny badge is only approximately 1.25“ x 3/8“ and is cloth over what is probably a little celluloid base.

It’s all original incomplete although the metal clasp and pin back is a bit oxidized with some surface rust.

The fabric is slightly soiled as is typical, and it is an overall good preowned vintage collectible condition.

This is a rare and sought after collectible.

Please take the time to view all the photos and video carefully and zoom in to see details. Pictures are an important part of the description, and it's assumed you have viewed them all before purchasing.

Also please remember that color is subjective. Colors can appear different depending on the person and their computer. If a particular color or shade is a deciding factor, feel free to reach out to ask for more photos or details.

Kindly remember that unlike brand new items, my items have been previously owned and will sometimes show signs of use consistent with age of antique & vintage items. Unless otherwise mentioned, the things in my shop are sold as found.

I’m always available if you have questions about anything in my shop, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with inquiries or concerns.

Shipping is generally nonrefundable and has been calculated to include insurance.

Free local pickup is an option for Atlanta GA folks. It's especially encouraged for heavy and/or large items.
