Welcome to Astra’s Shadow!
We are primarily a vintage shop, but we also feature some unique new Sterling silver jewelry, handmade in-house. For our vintage collection, we are always on the look-out for unusual, interesting, artistic, exotic, puzzling, curious, visually appealing, or just plain cool things to bring into the shop. Vintage jewelry is a shop specialty. Many of our listings contain historical background information to let you know what we found out while researching the items.
Please take a look around, browse our shop sections, and perhaps try a search or two within the shop for things in your special areas of interest. If this looks like your kind of shop, bookmark us and check back from time to time; we’re always adding newly found or handmade items into the mix.
About customer service: we are very concerned with providing the best buying experience that we can for our customers. We start with the listings, where clear, detailed descriptions and photos, along with honest and thorough information on item conditions, are paramount. If you are interested in purchasing one of our items and have any questions not covered by the listing “Overview” and “Item Details,” please contact us and we will be glad to help you make up your mind. If you do make a purchase, we make an effort to contact you to verify the shipping address on record with your billing info: it does not happen often, but occasionally a customer may not realize that an old or incorrect shipping address is attached to an account. We will, however, ship your item within 3 business days even if we don’t hear back from you. Our policy for packaging your item for safe shipment is “overkill:” we try to pack things so that they will be sure to arrive without any shipping damage regardless of any incidental “mishaps” between us and you. Finally, we do not solicit any reviews from buyers. All reviews (linked to our Etsy shop home page) have been voluntarily supplied by customers.
