Authenticity & Condition

Every piece is carefully authenticated and condition-checked before it’s listed, so you can shop pre-owned with confidence.

Our authentication process

1. Initial assessment

We inspect construction, materials, hallmarks and overall craftsmanship.

2. Maker / brand verification (where applicable)

We review brand signatures, markings and key design details.

3. Stone checks

We inspect stones visually for quality, setting integrity and overall appearance.

4. Condition Inspection

We check for wear, scratches, dents, prongs, clasps, hinges and settings.

5. Photography & listing

We photograph each piece in detail and describe condition clearly — including any notable marks.

6. Final check before dispatch

Before shipping, we complete a final inspection and prepare the item for delivery.

  • Fair

    Visible age-related wear that contributes to the piece’s story. Fully wearable. You might see patina, softening of edges, gentle surface marks consistent with age.
