Some items are vintage, some true antique, some new. I am not certified in antiques so I research things as best I can for pricing purposes only. I try to stick to a fair market value on my items. I make no guarantee to the authenticity of any items, jewelry or otherwise that I purchase at estate auctions and sales. Most of what I carry are "vintage" meaning they are pre-1980 (Etsy uses 1990 as vi
ntage). I try to identify any imperfections or damages as best as I can, but all items are sold as is. If you want more detailed photos please ask before you commit to purchasing. Direct sales resell items... A&L's will also offer a variety of direct sales products for sale from various companies. You can buy from multiple product lines with one shipping charge. Most are new, some are gently used. They will be described as accurately as possible. Direct sales first sale items... Keep Collective, Dove Chocolate, Celebrating Home and Wild Tree are the direct sales companies. Celebrating Home is used for fundraisers only. Artisan line... A&L's artisan line includes upcycled glassware, upcycled shotgun shells, wood carvings and hand carved walking sticks. All products from A&L's are selected and reviewed carefully. The only items that are sold as anything other than "as is" with any kind of warranty are those from first line direct sales companies.
