What does it mean when listed as Vintage or Antique?

Antique is a collectible item at least 100 years old. 

Vintage is a collectible that is 20 years or older.

Vintage Inspired is an item that does not have the age, but imitates a style of a previous era.  Also known as a reproduction, repro or retro. 

New is a brand new, unused item. Handmade is an item that has been made by myself or another craftsperson.

Because of the Antique, Vintage and unique nature of my items, they will have imperfections and characteristics that are appropriate with age and that of a handmade piece. They are sold As-Is and As-Found.  Please look over the listing description and  photos, as well please ask me any questions before your purchase. I make every attempt to accurately point out the flaws and wear on the items listed in my shop, but can’t guarantee or certify each item.   

Most items are of a fragile nature and will be packed with care and shipped with insurance. I will help in every way to resolve any issue that may arise due to shipping. Please note that all shippers now require the recipient to file insurance claims for damages.
