Condition guide

Lady Arkenstone Vintage is a one person show. I take condition and quality of the vintage I sell very seriously. I carefully asses each vintage piece, and I do my best to disclose all minor flaws that might be associated with each garment within the description of the item. I use the following grading and vintage ranking system to describes the condition of each piece.

MINT

Virtually no wear, mostly refers to vintage that has never been worn.

EXCELLENT: 10/10

Expected signs of wear, with consideration of the age, but hardly any signs of wear.

VERY GOOD: 9/10

Shows normal signs of wear expected for age with some minor visible problems but will not detract from wear.

GOOD: 7/10

Garment has obvious condition, but overall intact. Could use mending and / or cleaning.

FAIR: 5/10

A piece of vintage that is most likely not wearable, but could serve as a fantastic inspiration piece.

Please keep in mind that in most cases, vintage is pre-owned, and as a result pieces will show some minor wear and there may be minor flaws I have missed.
