We developed this site to share our passion with others who love vintage costume jewelry. Even if you don't collect we think you will benefit from your visit. I started collecting a while back and soon realized my hobby was becoming a passion. I have always loved fashion and retailing. I worked part time as a model and I worked in better named department stores all of which gave me a real appreciation for the world of costume jewelry.

If you want to start collecting try starting with one designer or one type of jewelry such as a figural. Once you become familiar with the designers tendencies or with the form you have chosen then you can expand. One thing to keep in mind is that quality is the key. A piece does not have to have a hallmark to be considered collectable. Just think about De Lizza & Elster Juliana costume jewelry. Unsigned jewelry that is very collectable! Let your heart be your guide! Try this link for some starting pointers Starting Your Own Collection. Check out our designer jewelry on-line.

We do not appraise costume jewelry or vintage purses. We believe this is an art form unto itself. It would be nice to do so, however it takes a long time and we would much rather spend our time collecting and offering you our finds. We cannot respond to these requests.

We do not restore costume jewelry or vintage purses. We perform a light cleaning if needed. Our vintage and pre-owned jewelry and purses are sold as we purchased them. We research our items and we do out best to describe each item carefully, if flaws are present we include that in the description rest assured. Remember most of our jewelry is used and quite old. It will not look new nor should it. Please read our document on condition for additional information.
