5. "I don't have pierced ears" or "I prefer a different type of earring finding" or "I have allergies." Can you customize my order based on these issues?

Of course. We are happy to customize the items you order. Simply include your requests when you order. We can use French earwires, leverbacks, posts or clips. Choose from Sterling Silver, Gold-Filled, Gold, surgical stainless steel or niobium. Some choices may change your final price. Email prior to ordering for more details.


6. What is Niobium?

Niobium is a metal similar to Titanium and is hypoallergenic. We have found that most of our clients, even those with severe metal sensitivities, can wear earrings with Niobium findings. It is available in plain and anodized finishes and we can even change out your existing earrings so you can wear them again! Contact us about pricing for changing your existing earrings.


7. Can I order an item in a different size?

We would be happy to include a gift card. Let us know what you want the card to say when you order. Also, all of our items arrive in a gift quality pouch or box so you can be assured your gift will be well received. We do not offer gift wrapping, but the boxes and pouches we use are gift quality.

Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Amex and Paypal. We recently added Google Checkout as a payment option. You may also call in a credit card to our toll free number: 1-877-655-2231. We also accept checks and money orders, however your purchase will not ship until your check has cleared.


19. Why won't the shopping cart let me order more than one of a particular item?

Since we use vintage materials, often we do not have more than one of a particular item. Some of our items do have multiple quantities available, however, some don't.


20. Why won't my order go through? Why can't I register?

There are several reasons an order may not go through including billing address not matching the address on your credit card statement, some debit cards cannot be used as a credit card or a credit card system not being able to verify user data either on the store or customer side of the transaction.
