Our collection consists of pieces that are of antique and vintage condition, which means that all our items are second-hand and used. We want to be transparent with our customers-you are not purchasing 'new', 'perfect' and 'unworn items', and as such, should expect wear and imperfection. However, we try our best to photograph everything accurately with detailed pictures that can be enlarged and will point out any flaws we feel are noteworthy. Please review the photos carefully before purchasing and reach out to us with any questions.
