Size: 1 3/4" long x 1" wide
Markings: Sterling Sue Chm
NOTE: I do not scratch test jewelery that is marked. If it is marked, I magnet test it but do not do a scratch test it. For those who don't know, scratch tests can be done by rubbing the piece on a scratch stone and using testing acid on the mark to see if it is the gold or silver. I NEVER apply acid to the pieces to test their metal content.
PATINA and TARNISH: Your jewelry may arrive tarnished or with patina on it. I polish the newer pieces (especially ones from my personal collection) but pieces with delicate stones, parts, or are antique, I DO NOT polish them. They will arrive with patina (dark, somewhat rainbow-y tarnish that comes with age). I leave it up to the buyer to remove the patina from these pieces and recommend that they be taken to a jeweler. Patina can take years or even decades to develop and some people enjoy having this on their pieces so I leave it up to the buyer to remove it from the older pieces if they choose to. All dirt or debris is removed from all the pieces, though, so even if they are tarnished, they are clean and ready to wear.
SHIPPING: $4.50 for the first item, $0.50 for each additional item. I can ship it Priority or Express for an additional charge. Just let me know!
RETURNS: I do not accept returns. All items are sold as vintage, used, and as is. I do my best to photograph and describe the pieces as well as possible (if there is any damage present). Please ask any questions you have before buying. I am happy to answering questions and send more photos if needed.
