Product Information
Authentication is an integral process for each piece that enters our selection. We apply a multi-step process, consisting of several verification checks to validate and ensure authenticity. This includes but is not limited to: comparison with authenticated reference items, inspection of stamps, date codes and serial numbers, fabrics and hardware, stitching and construction, and the overall workmanship of each piece. Each purchase comes with a guarantee of authenticity.

Our collection consists of hand-selected pieces that date as far back as 30 years old. As such, they may have imperfections and signs of wear that are inherent to vintage. To help ensure you make the correct purchase, we strive to accurately describe the condition of each piece through these criteria:
| Pristine | Unused or virtually unworn pieces with no perceptible flaws |
|---|---|
| Excellent | Well-preserved pieces with minimal and inconspicuous signs of wear |
| Very good | Lightly worn pieces with minor wear from occasional use |
| Good | Pieces showing noticeable signs of wear typical of regular use |
| Fair | Pieces with substantial wear and visible damage throughout |
