Absolutely one of the nicest sellers on eBay. From an excellent value buy it now offer to pleasant follow up messages keeping me informed of shipping progress. The packaging was top notch, double boxed to ensure safe international delivery. Opening the boxes and seeing the brooch in person was a "wow, so pretty". I knew it was beautiful by the description pictures but it really a sight to behold in person. Thank you. My highest recommendation to the seller :)

Postage was fast & the ring was very well packed (in a ring box, bubble wrap & a plastic box). The ring is lovely & exactly as described. The lab grown emeralds are a beautiful bright green. This was my 2nd purchase from this seller & I highly recommend them.

This piece is just as stunning as it looks in the photos and I saved the wonderful description information about it as well. It arrived very quickly and safely in a lovely velvet bag. Which is amazing for me as it is a gift. This seller always packages their items like they'll be thrown from them to me and it's much appreciated. I have ordered multiple times and everything always arrives safely. This store always has really interesting pieces at good prices. I highly recommend them.
