Jewelry: Our pieces are all original, handcrafted, and made of Sterling Silver and Gemstones or fine Lead Crystal beads unless otherwise noted. We will occasionally have some costume jewelry for special Holiday sales. We will customize for size, or Gemstones, if available, some with a small additional charge to cover the customizing costs. We try to keep these costs as low as possible by finding the most reputable suppliers available, with the best possible prices. For Special orders - please let us know your needs, and we will let you know if we can accommodate them, by contacting us at GypsySilver@verizon.net |
| To Our Valued Customers: Our Sterling Silver jewelry has no added fixatives or sealers and will, as all fine Sterling, become tarnished with time. We do not use these anti-tarnishing chemicals because of the many people who have, or who do develop, allergies to them. We are concerned about polluting the environment and ourselves as well, so we recommend that you get a silver polishing cloth, and know that the more you wear your jewelry, the less polishing it will need. |
