Frequently asked questions.
How does shipping work?
Because my goal is to make Italian Jewelry accessible in the USA, the prices on my handpicked collection include shipping. Put in your address and I will be in contact, and send you a tracking number once it is on the way.
What is the difference between “Curated Collection” and “Italian Jewelry Marketplace”?
“Curated Collection” are pieces that I specifically hand-pick; these are pieces that I personally sourced, inspected, and fell in love with. These may have a bit higher price to account for shipping, handling, and sourcing costs. These are pieces that are timeless, intentionally sourced and incredibly rich in history. Curated Collection is my dream.
“Italian Jewelry Marketplace” is the second half of my dream. ;) This marketplace is a bit quicker, to account for modern purchasing habit and trends. Jewelry is supposed to be made to be worn for a long time. In this day and age of high-turnover trends and styles, fast fashion jewelry is becoming a huge issue for our environment. The jewelry marketplace includes various stores that I personally vetted, that include incredibly cute Italian styles. This marketplace may have a wide range of prices and styles to fit all budgets and preferences, but all the merchants on this page are Debbie Approved.
Are you a designer?
Kind of. I have visions and I love and appreciate the beauty of design, however my job is to celebrate, facilitate and share the production of fine Italian Jewelry.. I will design pieces in the future but for now, I am here to help bridge the gap between talented artisans, high quality materials and jewelry lovers around the world
Are you a metalsmith?
No! The ancient art and tradition of Goldsmithing and Metalsmithing goes way beyond my capabilities. I think of Metalsmithing kind of like magic. I leave it to the wizards.
