The M & S jewelry brand began in the
mid-1940s in Providence, Rhode Island and lasted a little over two decades. The
designers of this company adhered to the Art Deco style, creating
sophisticated, almost filigree jewelry using 10-12 carat gold and an abundance
of stones and complex-cut crystals. Jewelry from this brand went out of
production in the early 1960s and today is antique and highly collectible.
I have had two diminutive pairs of vintage screw-back M&S earrings in my collection for years. I’ve decided to sell them together in this listing. Both pairs are in beautiful condition and extremely sparkly!
Vintage
50s Atomic M & S 12kt Gold Filled Red & Clear Teardrop Rhinestone Screw

They
are both marked:

mechanism)
CONDITION: Both pairs are
in very good vintage condition.

## END OF DESCRIPTION ##
At Mom and Son Pickers, our
goal is to provide unique and one-of-a-kind items, from vintage and
contemporary jewelry to art glass, ceramics, pottery, and more. We buy from all
over the country, and many things come from our own personal collections.
Although we are relatively new sellers here, we are far from “new” when it
comes to “picking.” We have both been collecting for decades.
We will be rolling out
hundreds of amazing items over the next few weeks. Please visit our Mom and Son Pickers eBay store often to view our growing
selection. Make sure to “Save” us as a “Favorite” so you won’t miss new
inventory. If you have questions about anything, please don’t hesitate to contact
us via eBay before buying.
Thank you in advance for
taking the time to scroll down and thoroughly read our SHIPPING POLICY which
also includes other important information.
PHOTOGRAPHS
& CONDITIONS
Make sure to
carefully view all the photos as they form a significant part of the
description. Enlarge
them and study them. Before buying, please look at each picture carefully and
check for condition, details, and imperfections.
Most of our inventory is
Vintage or Pre-Owned, therefore, some items may show age-appropriate signs of
wear (like marks, scratches, chips, nicks, or dings) and may contain unseen
flaws or imperfections in addition to the information listed or photographs
provided. Please note that some color variations may be caused by camera and
lighting conditions.
Dates attributed, unless other evidence
of provenance exists, are educated guesses based on style, design, texture,
research, appraisals, or anecdotal information. But we aren’t experts, and we
could be wrong. The sizes posted are close approximations and not exact
measurements.
SHIPPING
& HANDLING
Packaging – Our primary shipping
concern is to pack your items safely for transport. In addition to using new
packaging materials, we also believe in recycling whenever possible.
Mailing
Address -
We will ONLY ship to the address on file with eBay. We will NOT ship to a
third-party address. Before making a purchase, please ensure that your mailing address
is correct. We may otherwise cancel the sale.
Handling
Time -
We ship packages every Wednesday and Saturday, except for holidays.
Calculated
Shipping -
Shipping fees are calculated based on weight and dimensions. We ship USPS and UPS,
and their established fees are beyond our control. However, many of our items
include FREE SHIPPING.
Combined
Invoices -
We will combine shipping if purchases can be safely combined. Combined invoices
are sent weekly (on either Wednesday or Saturday), except for holidays.
Insurance and
Tracking -
All items are shipped with insurance and tracking.
PAYMENT
& RETURNS
Payment - Payment is expected
at the point of purchase or the at the close of an auction unless an agreement
is made beforehand.
Non-Paying
Bidders -
After two days of non-payment, we will initiate a formal “Unpaid Item Case” on
eBay. Non-paying buyers or bidders may be blocked from future transactions.
Canceled
Transactions -
If a buyer or winning bidder requests to cancel the sale without a valid
reason, they may be blocked from future transactions.
International
Shipping –
At his time, USA shipping only. If you are an International Buyer seriously
interested in one of our items, please contact us.
Returns – We are a small, home-based
resale business. Therefore, it would be cost-prohibitive for us to accept
returns. This policy may change as our business grows. However, you
are covered by the eBay Money Back Guarantee if you receive an
item that is not as described in the Listing.
BIDDING
Auctions – We will periodically
hold 5-day auctions starting on Tuesday and ending on the following Sunday.
Auction wins will ship on Wednesday.
Retracting
Bids -
Bids can be canceled through the HELP section of eBay. If a bidder cancels bids
excessively, they will be blocked from future transactions.
Shill
Bidding -
If a buyer appears to be bidding and retracting suspiciously to manipulate
bids, they will be blocked from future bidding and reported to eBay.
COMMUNICATION
We love to hear from
customers (and Mom’s readers). However, all communication between Buyer and
Seller needs to be conducted via the eBay platform and NOT via phone, text,
personal email, chat boxes, messaging, or other social media methods. We cannot
reply to requests for item identification, appraisals, or business inquiries
.
