Will the item I receive look exactly like the photographs in the listing?

You will receive exactly the item pictured, minus any display props, measuring tools (such as rulers and scales), measurement comparison items (such as coins), and anything explicitly excluded in the text. Photos are likely not actual size; please see item description for dimensions. If there is a defect not discernible in the pictures, it will be included in the text. If there is a concern or doubt, please ask prior to purchase. Remember that color is a very tricky thing to transmit electronically. There are many variables, including lighting, background, physical filters, digital filters, the capabilities of the monitor on which the image is displayed, and the color perception of the viewer.

Where do you find your items?

We purchase our items primarily at auctions and estate sales.

How do you know that your items are authentic?

We purchase from reputable auction houses and dealers, and we test all gems and precious metals. While we are not experts, we try to list each item in as much detail as possible. We cannot describe every tiny nuance; therefore, please use the zoom feature and consider each picture carefully.

Gift wrapping and packaging

All of our jewelry items arrive in a gift box. If you would like a more impressive gift box, we have some available for purchase. If you would like non-jewelry items gift-wrapped, you can purchase gift-wrapping at checkout.

How long will it take for my item to arrive?

I ship all items the next business day after I receive them. First Class mail generally takes 3-5 business days in the U.S. Priority Mail takes 1-3 days in the U.S. However, please note that it took the US Postal Service 21 days to deliver one First Class package to California. Shipping to other countries can take 2-6 weeks via First Class International. If you need something for a specific date, consider using Priority Mail or Priority Mail Express.

Can you send me a photo of an item on a live model?

Generally, no. I'm a one-woman operation and I don't have any live models available. I take great effort to photograph items on measuring devices such as ring mandrels, rulers in millimeters and inches, and scales. I also offer returns, so that if your item is not exactly what you want, you are welcome to return it for a refund.

Do you offer layaway?

I offer layaway for items over $300. You may make up to 3 monthly payments for a handling fee of $5. A 10% cancellation fee will be charged if you cancel the order. No discounts apply.

Surprise your January birthday girl (or treat yourself) with this elegant vintage garnet choker necklace!

This exquisite Victorian Revival-style multi-strand choker necklace is strung with richly colored natural garnet beads and completed with an ornate 14 karat solid yellow gold clasp. The deep wine-red garnets shimmer beautifully in the light, giving this necklace a timeless old-world elegance that feels both romantic and sophisticated.

The necklace measures approximately 14 inches long and fits closely at the neckline in classic choker style. The entire necklace weighs 22.7 grams. The decorative clasp is unmarked, but it has acid tested positive as 14 karat gold and does not react to a magnet. The necklace is believed to date to the mid-20th century and reflects the enduring influence of Victorian and Bohemian garnet jewelry designs.

This necklace looks stunning worn alone for an understated luxury look or layered with longer chains for a more contemporary style. Good estate condition with expected light wear consistent with age.

We are listing several pieces of estate jewelry, along with other items fresh from fine North Carolina estates.
