Policies & Such

A General Statement of Policy...

 

     Everything I offer for sale I can guarantee within the bounds of any rational person's reason; i.e. if you take a hammer to it, it is yours, darlin'. But I will go above & beyond if the item itself is defective in any way. If there is any problem with an item of mine contact me via e-mail, innisfreedesigns@yahoo.com & I shall take said item back within any reasonable length of time & fix it, replace it or offer a refund.

    I can shorten any item for you free of charge, and I can lengthen any item as well, usually for but $2.00 more. My prices really do not reflect the time & energy I've invested in each piece but I want to go to the Renn Faire & see you wearing my necklace or ferronniere and not someone else's!

The "Ariadne" Necklace Set - Item #NS102

Coming Soon!

All my necklaces are strung on high-test steel cable, knotted and crimped to minimize the chance of breakage (ever have that happen on the subway? Yikes!) I also do pendants on satin or silk organza cord, another item which like the pearl choker keeps coming back in fashion.

I also enjoy working on special orders (they can take time!); if you see something you want reproduced e-mail me the image or I can work out an idea with a sketch or description, and I'll go a-hunting for the proper elements. I can scan the finished item and if its not to your liking there is no obligation on your part. So don't be afraid to look through those big ole Art Books- I love to make dreams a reality!

...& A Little About the Jewels...

All jewels I make are by-mine-own hand assembled and are either close imitations of pieces I've marveled at in Old Master paintings or are my own designs but in the "style of". I usually show an image of the artwork I've replicated or an image which is similar, to show you how the item is worn and with what attire.

Some pieces are appropriate for various places and periods- the basic choker of plump pearls for instance, how timeless that is and how frequently seen! Many items can be used for everyday (or evening) and for formal or semi-formal occasions. Think bridal!

I use better quality materials (and upgrading as possible) while keeping in mind your desire to have lovely goods at a reasonable price. Materials I typically use include sterling silver, vermeil (heavy gold-plate over SS), semi-precious stones, Austrian crystal, and higher-quality plated pewter. I am afflicted with sensitive ears myself so I usually use gold-filled wire for most of my earrings. Some lucky souls can wear 'bout anything in their ears, but I always indicate what the item is actually made of so there shouldn't be any surprises.

In the process of deciding which Events to attend, here in the Kingdom of Atlantia.  Broken ankle doing well, and I have hopes of getting to a number this year; I will certainly post information on which ones as soon as possible.

One of my favorite local places- a very authentic Olde Englishe Pub, right by Lake Greenwood here in SC.  Below's a pic of my Lord and Liege, and myself enjoying their fine fare...

Welcome to The Monthly Manor!

Wherein I present a fine manor house, mansion, palace or castle (some I've been to myself, and some I can only salivate over!) If you're into All Things Castle then this part of the site is for you!
 
We are still in France for September, and here I present to you the most exquisite castle- the Chateau de Montbrun.  It is perfect, it is ancient, it is the Real Deal!  Truly Medieval, and with authentic (not-too-messed-with) interiors.  The grounds look lovely too.  Here's the listing:
