We ask for your understanding on this matter. 💚 We do our best to present the items clearly in the photos on the page, so please inspect the images and descriptions with care. 💚 Vintage jewelry inherently carries signs of age and wear from its journey through time. 💚 The styles of jewelry in this shop will not be altered (e.g., clip-on earrings will not be converted to post earrings). 💚 We strongly advise those new to "Vintage Jewelry" to reconsider carefully before purchasing. 💚 If an item arrives damaged and unwearable, a refund can be requested. However, returns or refunds will not be accepted for reasons such as the item not meeting expectations, size discrepancies, color differences, or damage not incurred during transit. _____________________________________________ **About the Brand:** Avon's history began in 1886. Initially known for perfumes, it was also the first company to offer women an opportunity to earn money by doing what they loved. Representatives initially sold cosmetics and perfumes. In 1963, a piece of jewelry was offered as a gift with purchase. In 1970, due to numerous customer requests, Avon launched its own jewelry line – Avon Jewelry. The company's first collection was called "The Precious Pretenders." Extensive advertising campaigns in the US made these decorative pieces incredibly popular among women, solidifying Avon Jewelry's place among favored jewelry manufacturers. Collectors of vintage costume jewelry particularly appreciate pieces released in the 1970s. Notable brands that collaborated with Avon include Ungaro, Swarovski, Centennial, Trifari, and WN. In the 1990s, Hollywood actress Elizabeth Taylor collaborated with the company's designers on several jewelry lines named in her honor. Even today, Avon Jewelry continues to delight women with its quality and accessible pricing. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53138617759_2f4d9410e2_o.jpg
