Our Policies

1. WELCOME & ABOUT US

Welcome to Iconstyle.net. The Icon Style name and our customers mean everything to us. We pledge to treat our online customers with the same care and attentive service that we deliver at our New York City shop and are happy to personally guide and assist you with your purchase. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

 

2. OUR MERCHANDISE & SERVICES

Quality Assurance

Icon Style takes great pride in the quality and history of our merchandise, and our standard is built on the knowledge and experience of a dealer and jeweler with a degree in Fine Arts - Metalsmithing and decades of background in the field. We guarantee the authenticity of all our items and assure you that they will live up to the description posted. All gold jewelry is acid tested for purity. Stones are graded and counted by a certified gemologist. All gemstone weights are estimated based on measurement by a professional gemologist.

 

We polish and clean each piece based on design and age, therefore older antique or vintage pieces are sometimes cleaned without polishing to maintain a desirable patina. All items are pre-owned estate pieces that have only been refurbished as necessary to meet Icon Style’s high standard of quality and condition. We do our best to describe the condition and any wear to all of our vintage and antique items. The terms we use are from best to least: excellent, very good, good, and fair.

 

Excellent: If any, only the gentlest signs of age and wear. Any issues are barely perceptible, in many cases only with a jeweler's loupe.  
Very Good:  In great shape, with slight wear appropriate to the age of the piece. May have noted minor flaws that do not detract from its original beauty and wearability.  
Good: Moderate signs of wear and age, with a handful of noted flaws, but totally wearable.
Fair: Visible and apparent signs of age and/or wear, and in a fragile state, but still desirable due to rarity.

 

 All refurbishments are disclosed and have been done in such a way as to maintain the original integrity of the items.

Vintage Wear

Wear on vintage items can be unpredictable, for which reason we cannot accept returns or exchanges if an item becomes damaged after it has been received by the buyer. We try our best to ensure wearability of our products, or warn of delicate materials,  but we cannot guarantee wearability, especially in antique items.

 

Photography

We do our best to accurately photograph all of our items. However, colors may vary depending on differences between your computer or phone screen and ours. Please note that all items are vintage and sold as is. If you would like additional details or photos of a product, please contact us.

 

Ruler photos are provided for approximate scale, not precise measurement. Please see the item description for the most accurate measurements of a piece.

 

We occasionally use jewelry props or boxes to aid our photography. Unless listed in the description, these are not included with purchase.

 

Jewelry Alterations

In certain instances, we are able to offer alteration services for our jewelry such as ring sizing, shortening of chains, removing links for bracelets, etc. Please contact us via email at info@iconstyle.net to discuss any alterations and their estimated cost.

 

3. EXCHANGE POLICY

Icon Style does not issue refunds. We do offer exchanges on merchandise not purchased through Layaway for store credit. For an item to be eligible for exchange, an email must be sent to info@iconstyle.net notifying us of the exchange and the item must be shipped back to us postmarked within 3 days of receipt of your order. Items purchased through our Layaway Policy (detailed in section 4 below) are final sale and not eligible for exchange.

 

Return shipping for exchanged merchandise should be addressed to: Icon Style, 104 West 70th Street, New York, NY 10023

 

All items that are returned for an exchange must be returned in the same condition that the items were sold in. Items may not be returned to Icon Style if they have been damaged or modified in any way. This includes but is not limited to modifications such as removing the aged patina. Any pieces that are modified, customized or altered per client request, either through Icon Style or a third party, are not eligible for exchange. This includes but is not limited to ring sizings, shortening of chains, etc. We hold the right to deny an exchange if the merchandise returned does not meet our policy requirements.

 

The buyer is responsible for any return shipping costs for exchanges. Icon Style is not responsible for return shipping costs. We suggest you insure items when shipping exchanges to protect you from the cost of any potential damage during shipping, and we are happy to discuss shipping options when you reach out to us about your exchange. All sales are final after 3 days from receipt by the customer.

 

Exchanges will be processed as soon as possible, please allow up to 3-5 days from our receipt of your returned item for store credit to be issued in the form of a gift certificate.

Domestic Shipping

We ship via USPS Priority Mail with required signature for purchases under $1000.

Customs and duty will be the responsibility of the buyer.

 

Shipping Insurance

All products shipped by Icon Style will be fully insured. Insurance costs will be included in shipping fees.

 

Damaged or Modified Items

We ship all items fully insured. If they are damaged in shipping, a claim must be filed with the shipper. Do not return items that have been damaged in shipping as this will void the insurance.  Items may not be returned to Icon Style if they have been damaged or modified in any way. If you have any questions about how to file a claim, please contact us and we will be happy to direct you to the appropriate party.
