Please understand this consensus. 💚 We strive to clearly present items in photos on the page, and we ask that you carefully examine the images and descriptions. 💚 Antique jewelry is, by its nature, an item with age that has been touched by time, and will bear signs of use. 💚 The jewelry in this shop will not have its style altered, such as converting clip-on earrings to pierced styles. 💚 For those new to "Vintage Jewelry," please consider carefully before purchasing. 💚 If an item arrives damaged and unwearable, a refund can be requested.

The company's founder, Lyman K. Stuart, named it in honor of his granddaughter, Sarah. Notably, the jewelry company was founded in 1949 and is recognized as the oldest direct-selling jewelry company globally. Sarah Coventry also offered men's accessories like tie clips and cufflinks in its early days. By the 1960s-1970s, Coventry's jewelry prices were comparable to those of Trifari and Coro. However, in 1981, Stuart filed for bankruptcy. In the mid-1980s, a Canadian company acquired Coventry. Sarah Coventry's vintage jewelry was never sold in stores; it was promoted exclusively at special "fashion" parties hosted by the brand's representatives. The company offered a lifetime warranty on its jewelry, with owners only needing to pay for postage. Trademarks include: "SC," "Sarah cov.," "Sarah," "Sac," and "Coventry."
