Please review all provided photographs. We do not clean, polish, or repair vintage jewelry, as collectors often prefer the natural patina and aging that develops over time. This approach also prevents any risk of damage to the metal finish or rhinestone foil backings. The item is sold as-is, showcasing its authentic vintage charm.
