Gold jewelry is never old
Gold is never old. Vintage and Antique gold jewelry is not referred to as used or second hand as one might refer to a 20-year-old car. Gold is infinitely recyclable, the gold that one has on his or her finger now maybe from melted gold once worn by Cleopatra or King Solomon. All Gold is ancient in the extreme. Gold is created due to a process called supernova nucleosynthesis, which occurs only inside of an exploding star. The astronomical heat and pressures generated inside of a supernova is the only way gold is created. The gold on your finger is not millions of years old, but billions. The unique properties of gold is what makes it so desirable. Gold does not oxidize or tarnish, and is resistant to almost any acid short of aqua regia (nitro-hydrochloric acid) so named because it is one of the very few things that can dissolve gold.

5 out of 5 starsVery impressed with Lena’s customer service. She answered questions, took additional photos and videos for me, and the resized the ring beautifully for me. I love it and am so pleased with this entire transaction! The shipping took way too long, but I believe it was COVID and Christmas to blame. Lena was quick to touch base with me on ways to help get the shipping process moving and I really appreciate her attention and concern. Would absolutely feel comfortable buying from this shop again. Thank you!!!

We genially believe that everything happens for a reason. And like attracts alike. It means that we attract those customers, who resonate with our vibrations. When we started to acknowledge this fact, the type of customer we attract has changed. We stopped attracting those people who are rude, always unsatisfied, complaining, etc. Instead, our customers are polite, sophisticated, well- mannered woman and man, who is looking for the right product, and more importantly, for good service as well. We know you’re one of the good ones because you’re reading this now.

Shop policies
We want you to be happy with your purchase and we want to see you again, again, and again. Your friends, co-workers, neighbors, family members, an evening bar buddy are always welcomed, too.
Q. Do you offer layaway?
A. Currently we have suspended our layaway plan. We will resume this wonderful option when a sense of personal responsibility and honesty reaches (or will rise to) a higher level.
Q. Is it solid gold or gold plated?
A. We have nothing against costume jewelry, and there is a special market for it. However, we sell FINE jewelry only. This means that our items are crafted in precious metals such as 14K, 18K, and higher GOLD or PLATINUM. Sometimes we sell silver jewelry but only if it is a designer piece.
Q. Is it synthetic stone or genuine?
A. All of the gemstones in our items are real, natural, genuine Earth mined gems, unless otherwise stated.
Q. Do you know the history of this piece?
A. Very rarely do we buy our jewelry individually. All of our jewelry comes from estate auctions or from reputable dealers. There are many, many amazing pieces in one lot. So it is almost impossible to know the history of each item.
Q. Do you provide the appraisals / letters of Authenticity / certificates for your antique-vintage-estate jewelry?
A. We DO NOT offer appraisals / certificates due to our prices being far below retail. Also, it is in the best interest of the buyer to get a third party appraisal since any seller will tell you that your item is at least worth what you paid for it. We do guarantee, that should you decide to have one of our items appraised, the appraised value will meet or exceed our offered price. Please be aware that an antique jewelry item must be appraised by an antique jewelry establishment and NOT a modern jewelry store. However, we can issue appraisal for insurance purpose for additional $55 upon request.
If appraisal is posted in the listing, you will receive it with your purchase, otherwise we do not send any certificates of authenticity papers.
Q. What is the condition of this piece?
A. We sell all kinds of fine jewelry: antique jewelry (Victorian, Edwardian, Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Retro), vintage jewelry (1960-1980s), estate jewelry, and some modern fine jewelry pieces. We would never list the item if we know there is something wrong with it. But, for example, we prefer not to remove old patinas from antique pieces, nor do we polish old jewelry. We prefer to preserve the aged charm of an old piece. But we can do it for you upon request. You will receive the exact item that you see on the pictures.
Our items are mostly vintage and antique, please expect some normal wear, in most cases the jewelry has been worn and adored for years, rendering it not mint condition. Any repairs or damage will be noted in the description and shown in the photographs. All gemstone and metal information, clarity, weights, measures and conditions are approximate in-setting estimates. Appraisals or GIA reports are not included with your purchase unless it is specified in the listing.
Q. Do you resize the rings?
A. Yes, resizing would cost around $75. The rings with enamel or inlaid opals require a laser for resizing, so it would cost around $100 or more.
