We Keep It Real

• Intake & Provenance:
  Seller ID verification, ownership attestation, and review of receipts/servicing papers when available.
• Brand-Specific Markers:
  Hallmarks, stamps, engravings, logos, fonts, serial/date codes or microchips, label/embossing placement.
• Materials & Build:
  Leather type and grain, canvas weave, textiles, lining, stitching count & symmetry, edge paint, glazing, hardware plating and screw types.
• Internal Details:
  Pockets, heat stamps, zippers, pulls, clasps, movement calibers (watches), gemstone settings (jewelry).
• Condition Grading:
  We clean lightly, never over-restore. Condition and any notable wear are photographed and noted on the product page.
• Final Approval & Documentation:
  Items pass a final sign-off before listing. Accessories (cards, dust bags, boxes) are listed exactly as included.

Our Tools

• Macro imaging, UV/blacklight, loop inspection, metal tests for jewelry, watch-timing instruments.
• Leading databases and comparative archives.
• We pair expert eyes with intelligent image analysis that compares grains, stitching, fonts, and engravings against deep reference libraries—then, when needed, we escalate to independent labs for advanced material testing.

What We Don’t Accept

• Counterfeits, replicas, heavily altered items, or pieces with unclear ownership.
• Items that cannot meet our authenticity or condition standards.

Authenticity Commitment

If authenticity is credibly challenged, we will re-evaluate immediately. Should an item ever be demonstrated non-authentic by a recognized authority, we’ll cancel the sale and issue a full refund and return at our cost. We are independent and not affiliated with the brands we curate.
