At SGV, we aim to mainly source items in Very Good to Excellent condition. We work very hard to detail the item's condition as accurately as possible using photos and in the item details. It is rare that a vintage item has no signs of wear, but also common to find pieces in great or excellent condition that can be worn for years to come. A lot of vintage pieces were made using much better quality construction and materials than are used today, so you can feel confident knowing that you're item will last! By purchasing vintage or second-hand, you're making a sustainable purchase, and are adding to an item's history and story.
