Our vintage pieces have been hand-selected with care and an eye towards quality. We strive to source items that are in perfect condition, but as with many vintage goods, there may be signs of wear. They have been preloved and passed down through generations. We feel this adds character, beauty and tells a story behind its journey into your hands. We do not, however, offer any glassware, china or ceramics with chips or structural cracks. Every piece in our collection has been hand washed in soap and water (except artwork), and most of our brass and silver has been lightly polished. We always recommend hand washing your treasures for a continued long life. Unless specifically labeled on the piece, we do not recommend using in a microwave, dishwasher or oven. Please be sure to read through our descriptions thoroughly and ask any questions prior to making your purchase. We are happy to discuss the item in more detail if necessary.
