, we are glad you are here! Please take the time to read our complete listing terms agreement. We try to provide a very detailed description, so you can buy with confidence.

24 hours daily through the eBay message board. We here at
STERLING ROSE ESTATE GALLERY
want you to be happy with your purchase.  Please mark us in your favorites, as we are always traveling in the U.S.A. purchasing.  If there is a certain piece you are looking for, please advise us. We have several venues that we sell from and could have your prized piece in that store - or at least be on the lookout for your item in our travels.
Most estate items are cleaned/polished to a degree to look as new as possible.   Deep cleaning is left up to the buyer on items such as antique Sterling Silver, which may have its patina left in place.
A picture is worth a thousand words, so please be sure to see all the pictures - they are part of the description!
It is our family team's desire to accurately describe our items, so pictures and display models are considered an integral part of the description but NOT an indication of the size. Please read the written description for an approximate of the dimensions and weight.
We have several team members that are studying gemstone identification and we test all of our gemstones with a PRESIDIUM GEM TESTER to determine the type of stone or rhinestone (glass), but we cannot state on most stones which are man-made or natural from the earth - only a license gemologist can do that.  Please be advised by law we should not say "Cubic Zirconia" unless it is hallmarked as such.
All solid carat gold and sterling silver items are always tested for metal content regardless of hallmark.   Everything is inspected with a jeweler's loupe due to our items being pre-owned - vintage, so please expect normal vintage wear, unless otherwise stated in the auction.
We very much appreciate your business you are a BLESSING to Our Team!
RING SIZING AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST ....price depends on the degree of work performed, non-refundable and the cost of the sizing will be listed on eBay after the purchase of the ring, so not to be sold outside of eBay.
All items will come in a clean new box.   Earrings will have matching sterling or carat gold backs, most new on sterling pairs.   You might want to add 1/2 size for wide rings.  Dimensions, size, and weights are APPROXIMATE.
Vermeil: (Pronounced: Vermay) is sterling silver that has been gold-plated. Most of our vermeil is plated with 10k - 24K gold. This is a good combination for those with an allergy to normal, plated jewelry items. The difference between vermeil, and gold-filled, is in the thickness of the gold and the base metal used. In vermeil, the base is sterling silver. To be considered vermeil, the gold must be at least 10 carats (42%) and be at least 2.5 micrometers thick.
Sterling Silver: is a mixture of pure silver and some other metal, usually copper throughout the item. The resulting alloy gives the silver strength.   The standard is at least 92.5% silver. Hence the .925 stamp you see on some sterling silver items.   Most sterling silver items without a non-tarnishing coat can be buffed out to look as brand new, just like real gold can - as seen in a jewelry storefront.
Carat Gold:  Because of the softness of pure (24k) gold, it is usually alloyed with base metals for use in jewelry, altering its hardness and ductility, melting point, color and other properties.  Alloys with lower carat rating, typically 22k, 18k, 14k or 10k, contain higher percentages of copper or other base metals or silver or palladium in the alloy.  Copper is the most commonly used base metal, yielding a redder color.
Payment:  PAYPAL PREFERRED within THREE (3) DAYS.   eBay will automatically open a non-paying bidder case on the 3rd day - only exceptions are unless you contact us before the 3rd day to advise us of the issue.   CREDIT CARDS and your bank account (e-checks) CAN BE ACCEPTED THROUGH PAYPAL or now even without a Paypal account at this time.
