We believe in fair and honest trade on both sides -Buyer and Seller- However there are few points to make clear before bidding
What we do before posting on sale:
We provide accurate description and photos for each of our listed items.
Our photos are among the best on eBay showing more than the naked eye can see.
Enlargements of more than 10X from many point of view make the buyer able to catch every single detail of the item.
Of course we cannot report every single tiny scratch - Therefore our highly magnificated photo will show them all.
Also note that colours and saturation may slightly vary from originals,
monitor's setting can affect them too.
We do odour best to give all information related to each item in written, to help buyer in choosing between quality and prices. You will ever find on each item all the details needed for a successful Purchase. We never miss to mention if there are pities to point out or the grading of our stones. Of Course on antiques signs of wear are to be present, these are rates in good/very good/excellent conditions or poor/worn Conditions.
We spend long time and work to give accurate and detailed information for each of our listed item.
Information given are based on our experience in jewellery trading and antiques and gems trading.
We use the GIA Grading Standards - Unless accompanied by a Gemmological Report.
Any Stone Grading is our opinion only and does not constitute certification or guarantee.
The words "approx/approximately" indicates Weights gauged by formula, not exact weights -Exact weights are stated if available. Otherwise formulas are used to estimate the weight for diamonds. These are approximations only and are not a guarantee of weight.
When a certificate accompanies a Jewellery lot it will be stated in the description.
Please bear in mind that diamond's grading is not an exact science, may slightly vary even between two major independent gemmologist.
Gemstone's weight is estimated on mounting, we provide a realistic figure allowing a maximum difference of +/- 5%
(International allowed difference is +/-10%)
We offer GIA credited gemmologist certificates for more expensive items.
These are to be asked before item leaving and may take few days to issue.
If you feel needing it just ask. This is an extra service we offer and is at buyer's expense.
If we have knowledge of hallmarks, signature, history or provenance, that information will always be included in the description.
