My 50 years of jewelry making are set to expand again! I have 'grand' (fun!) plans ready to go. Earrings, bold gemstone necklaces, bracelets, and lots of vintage mismatched silverware (plate and sterling). Never a dull moment!
SimpleSilverAndGold is taking a short break

5 out of 5 starsI purchased these vintage iced teaspoons to put on my coffee bar as coffee spoons. They’re beautiful, absolutely beautiful. It was a perfect mix of dainty patterns. I could not be happier with them. They were packaged very carefully. I will most definitely be purchasing from the seller again.

I s'pose I'm what's known as 'a dusty bottle', but my view of contents is definitely 'sweeter with age' :-) Seems that my 40+ years of jewelry making are beginning again with new tools, materials, and technology - what fun !

Frequently asked questions
PAYMENT WITH PAYPAL
You don't need your own Paypal account to purchase from my shop. You can checkout and pay for your purchase through Paypal using your regular credit card.
Sizing details
I offer a ring sizer for sale in my shop here :
https://www.etsy.com/listing/285422927/ring-sizer-reuseable-plastic-size-finder?ref=shop_home_listings
If you purchase the sizer, then purchase a ring from me, I'll refund to you the purchase price of the sizer.
Gift wrapping and packaging
Clarification: Etsy's terminology (not mine): "This order includes a gift", actually means that you will receive a receipt without the price showing. ***It does not mean buyer will get a free gift, or that I will gift wrap your item, or include a card for the recipient of said gift.***
Any item noted as 'gift' at time of purchase will be shipped in a gift box and decorative organza bag. Exception - bracelet clips will be boxed but not bagged (no bag large enough).
I can, UPON REQUEST, use selected text from listing description as part of the order receipt (that shows no price) to provide recipient with some specific and/or special info about the item, such as manufacturer/design history,etc.
SHIPPING UPGRADES, POLICIES
If you have not yet made a purchase, contact me, and I will adjust the listing for your purchase so you can choose your ship method.
If you have already purchased/paid, and want to upgrade, contact me so I can either:
- Send you a Paypal invoice for the additional charge.
- Add a new listing to Etsy for the additional charge - stating it's a shipping upgrade - and send you the link to purchase the upgrade
Shipping charges for Custom Orders are set at my sole discretion and may be included in purchase cost of listing, depending on type of customization.
INSURANCE
- I automatically include insurance for any items I ship via priority mail, and for many other clearly specified items. If you want to purchase insurance, NOTIFY ME - I can use different methods for Shipping Upgrades to adjust your purchase ship cost to include insurance.
- Etsy's insurance provider does not cover loss due to "porch theft". Buyer is responsible for providing a secure location for delivery of purchase. I DO NOT personally cover purchase loss due to "porch theft".
REFUND POLICY
***Buyer is responsible for return shipping within 7 days***
I know that sometimes a purchase just does not 'work out', and I will accept returns for refund with the following guidelines:
* NOTIFY ME TO REQUEST ANY RETURN -- I do not check my p.o. box regularly unless I'm expecting something
* The return package should have tracking
* any returned item must be in the original condition on date of my shipment to you - unused, undamaged, etc.
* I do not accept returns on flatware/silverware/tableware unless I have made an error in shipment AND return is shipped to me within 3 days of your receipt
* I will only accept a return request from the original purchaser.
* I am not responsible for any damage incurred in the shipping process.
MORE REFUND POLICY
* Refund for a cancelled (unshipped) purchase -- due to Etsy's internal policies regarding funds availability, I will refund a cancellation within 48 hours.
* Refund for a custom order will be at my sole discretion.
**Custom order is defined as
- custom-cut chain - special length not listed as choice in item listing
- ring re-sized from size choices available in description of item.
If an item is damaged in transit, please keep the item, together with the box and all packing materials, and contact me immediately. The USPS will need to see all packaging if a claim is filed.
Please note: Buyer pays return shipping costs.
SHIPPING POLICY
MY SHIP POLICY is to ship same/next business day. I ship USPS First Class for most items, and Priority for high value items, which includes insurance coverage. Priority shipping is clearly stated in relevant listings, otherwise assume first-class. Any questions, please convo me.
I specify in each listing any extended ship time necessary for re-sizing/alterations to a purchased product. Custom orders will be subject to the ship times discussed within the Etsy messages used to set up the custom order.
In any case where a personal emergency could affect my ability to ship on time, I will always contact you and offer you the opportunity to cancel your purchase.
I will be happy to work with you on shipping upgrades - CONTACT ME.
Custom and personalized orders
I love jewelry-making, and the challenge of a custom order. Additionally, a new world of fun has opened for me since I've moved into the flatware/silverware/tableware environment. Sooo - contact me about any special item you 'need', and I'll try to help.
My goal is your satisfaction and continuing business. If you need more info, contact me any time.
My career in on-line selling started over 10 years ago on another venue where I recorded 100% seller satisfaction over 10 years of active selling, with performance ratings at their maximum of 5 for 99.99% of my sales.
I processed almost 8600 transactions, with a total sales amount of almost $150,000.00, so my experience will help me toward your satisfaction.
