These items are Pre-Loved and will be close to 'New' condition, the item will most likely only have been worn on occasion and may have some very light signs of wear that shouldn't be overly visible. The stone(s) will be very close to new, with no visible wear present at all. The metal work will be the same, there might be some very, very small marks but the item will have been refinished (stones cleaned and metal polished) in our workshops with any light scratches removed.
