A large portion of what I carry is made of brass. Brass can either have a shiny gold like finish or take on an aged patina over time. To care for brass:
-keep away from moisture and chemicals and clean with a polishing cloth.
-remove brass jewelry when heading to the pool, beach, in the shower, etc..
-Polish with a clean, lint free cloth


Many items are also vintage so they may have signs of patina or wear. These add to the character of the item, but you may choose to use brass polish to shine them up.

Jewelry orders will come in 1-2 gift boxes in a bubble mailer. One gift box is free of charge as thanks to you.

Decor and vintage items will be carefully wrapped for safe delivery(usually with bubble wrap and/or tissue) and mailed in a sturdy shipping box or mailer depending on the size. While I like to be eco-friendly as possible I do want to make sure your item(s) arrive to you safely so I do at times have to use bubble wrap, packaging peanuts, etc.. I make every effort to reuse materials and purchase biodegradable or recycled packaging when possible. Note: media mail cannot have extra items/gift notes included

Please let me know if an item is a gift and should not include a receipt, otherwise all orders will come with an invoice,

Please be sure to read each listing and look through all photos to be sure of sizing and dimensions. I try to list everything as accurately as possible but if you have further questions about sizing please send a convo. I'd be happy to help!

Since many items are vintage and may be fragile or require special handling and shipping I DO NOT accept returns or cancellations. Please ask any questions you may have before purchase and check listing sizing carefully. I want you to be confident in your purchase and I'm happy to clarify any additional details you may need if I can. Since ALL SALES ARE FINAL please ask any questions you need for clarification before purchase. Personalized jewelry is also not returnable since it is customized just for you.

Some listings state they ship within business days only. Business days mean Monday - Friday excluding Holidays. Please do not count Saturdays, Sundays and national holidays in these shipping timelines.

(I do like to surprise you though and sometimes items will ship sooner if at all possible! I am known for being a very prompt shipper...just check my reviews.)
Please note that the delivery timelines given by Etsy do not always take holidays into consideration when estimating delivery times.

SHIP BY DATE: When your package leaves to get to you. This is when your package will be actually put in the mail after processing.

You may find the expected ship by date on your invoice. Please add at least 2-7 business days (Domestic) / 1-4 weeks (International) after the expected ship by date to estimate the actual delivery date. allow 2-14 days for media mail.

DELIVERY DATE: This is not guaranteed since delivery depends on your postal service. Please check tracking through the postal service website for the most up to date information. Contact your postal service for any questions or issues once tracking is listed as they will have the most current information about where your package is and when your package may arrive.

USPS estimates that Media Mail will arrive in 2 to 14 days once posted. Please note that due to the nature of media mail rules no additional items (like personal notes, gift wrapping) can be included with these items. They will be sent simply within a bubble mailer to comply with postal regulations. If you need to upgrade a media mail order to faster shipping please send a CONVO before purchase and wait for us to make a listing with the additional upgrade cost for you.

Please note that the USPS can experience delays ocassionally. I always ship packages in a timely manner but once they leave my hands I no longer have control over how long deliveries take depending on the different postal hubs they have to travel through. There may be a delay in between package scans as well. Therefore, delivery times are not guaranteed at this time and no refunds will be given for delays out of our control. I will reimburse any lost packages if they have not been delivered within 60 days. Please take these potential longer delivery times into consideration when ordering (That being said, sometimes deliveries only take a few days!)

I carry a line of personalized jewelry that can be easily customized with initials, and a line of cuff bracelets that may at times be customized with different words.

I can also sometimes create multiple listings for bridal party orders depending on the quantity and turnaround time needed. Please allow appropriate time for larger orders as with the amount of raw supplies I keep on hand I cannot accommodate rush requests.

However, other than the personalized jewelry options already in the shop I do not currently take custom requests. If you follow on social media though, do drop a comment about any special vintage you may be looking for or trends you are interested in and I'll do my best to source them!
