This retired school bus is NEW!!! It's already a rare piece, but in new condition much much much more rare! There are no scratches, no wear! Details are very pronounced! I encourage you to shop around to find another one out there and in such perfect condition!! Loop is not cut! This James Avery piece would make a VERY special gift in its condition! Would look perfect on necklace or bracelet! Please see my other listings for more James Avery, Tiffany & Co., David Yurman and Ippolita jewelry also!
