Unless an item is specifically identified by its gold content (e.g., 14 kt), it should be considered to be simply "goldtone" or "gold-wash."  Similarly, "silver" items are really "silvertone" unless they are specifically referred to as "sterling" silver.

Collectible items are typically not new original stock, however, we do have a limited number of older items that were never sold at retail.

It is rare that we have more than one of any item.  We are neither a producer nor designer of jewelry.  If you need to contact the producer or designer of any of our listed items, please contact them directly.

If you need advice on jewelry repair, you should contact your local jeweler who can best appraise the prospects for repairing your item.
