Jewelry is gently cleaned. We do not buff or polish away years of patina that we feel enhances the piece.

All of our items are presented as we receive them from the original owners. We do not remove stones from settings, and unless otherwise noted, all statements regarding gem identification, weight, quality, or clarity of the diamonds and gemstones are our best estimates. We have a Graduate Gemologist on staff who assists in this process.

When the items are not marked for metal content (karat), metals are tested. When the items are marked, we try to include a photograph of that mark. It is our hope that any estate jewelry and items you purchase from us will provide you with pride and pleasure for years to come.
