TERMINOLOGY USED IN OUR LISTINGS:
The definition of the word
s
tone(s)
can be anything at all. It is only being used as more of a descriptive word/placeholder. These can be anything from genuine gemstone, lab created, synthetic, glass, plastic or crystal “stones”. Unless specifically stated as gemstone(s) there will be no returns accepted for jewelry where the word “stone(s)” is used in our listing. Please make sure you understand and take that into account before placing a bid.
Pearls are tested to the best of our ability for texture and layering. They are not professionally tested. Pearls that do not pass the texture and layering test are labeled “faux”. The approximate diameter is provided for size only, and the pearl(s) may or may not be perfectly round. 90% of the world’s pearls are now cultured and are not naturally occurring. We cannot distinguish between cultured and natural pearls. You are bidding with this knowledge in mind.
Color, when we describe the color (of a stone, gem, bead, or anything that is described by a color), we may have different lighting than you & some of us see colors differently. Please know that the color that is described could be slightly different & a return will not be accepted for this reason.
Amber is determined to be an organic by-product (ie not plastic) and we cannot make any statement as to age or if it has fossilized.
Bakelite has been identified via the scrubbing bubbles test or metal polish.
Testing:
All of our jewelry offerings are tested prior to going to auction. We use a Thermo Scientific Niton DXL Metal Analyzer to test for precious metals and or JSP Acid Solution Testing in conjunction with the aforementioned analyzer.
We describe each item to the best of our ability; however, we are
NOT
experts in any field. All gemstones are measured using electronic calipers.
All gemstones are tested on a Presidium Gemstone Tester. This equipment CANNOT determine between natural, lab created and synthetic gemstones. There are no returns accepted for lab created or synthetic gemstones.
Items may be vintage, antique or newer. There is still a chance that the stones can become loose or that a connector may need to be tightened. We are as delicate as possible with the items, but there is a possibility we may miss the flaw or that it may happen during shipment. No refunds permitted or given for gemstones that become dislodged from their setting in or during shipment.
DISCLAIMER
This is a used, donated item that has not been cleaned, serviced or tested for functionality unless stated otherwise. Items that are not intended for collectible use should be inspected and/or serviced by a professional prior to use. We review materials used, maker’s marks, and quality of manufacture to ensure that our listings for items are accurate. Unless otherwise stated in the listing, items do not come with official certificates and will not include documentation. You are bidding with this in mind. Please also understand that we are NOT experts with any items. We do our best to not offer forgery designer clothing, replica watches or replica jewelry. All pictures are part of the item description.

SHIPPING:
All items are shipped by dimensional weight via Fedex Ground or Home Delivery. We do not use Express or overnight shipping. Dimensional weight is calculated by the carrier based on the amount of cubic space an item requires for transport, and may be higher than the actual item weight. We try to ship items the day after receiving payment. Payments must be received by 7:00 am to be shipped that day. After 7:00 am the item(s) will ship the following day. We generally do not work weekends and therefore shipping is not done on those days.

All pickups must be picked up within 30 days of payment. We do not send reminder notices to pick up your items.
