ay!
I try my best to represent items accurately but, please keep in mind that color may vary from monitor to monitor and whenever dealing with vintage materials, there are always
degrees of variation, textures, and hues.
Most items are from personal shopping and use but in like-new condition unless stated differently.
I try to photograph items as realistically & beautifully as possible - alas, I am no pro!
If you have any questions on how your exact piece will look or if you have any additional comments - I'm just an email message away!

Vintage:
noun
I vin·tage I

vin-tij\
Used to describe something that is not new but that is valued because it is in good condition, has attractive design, enduring interest, etc.
Can also be defined as:
“What one person may think is worthless may be cherished by another”
And usually at least two decades old.
However, this timeline is up to interpretation and active debate.
