We fully guarantee the authenticity and condition of each lot. We do not sell reproductions. Defects in lots have been carefully noted. Any lot differing from the catalog description may be returned. There is no time limitation to this guarantee.
Please note that if no remarks are found regarding, splits, tears, discoloration, etc; this means there are none to be found on the item! Our quality standards are high!
A certificate of authenticity is provided for each acquired item.

Do I get a Certificate of Authenticity?
Yes,  a certificate of authenticity in PDF format is provided for each acquired lot.
You can download and save the certificate (pdf format) on your computer. After this, you can print the certificate at your convenience. We advise printing an extra copy and keeping it with your insurance papers! You will find a link to generate the certificate in your invoice. Please visit Your Invoices and select an invoice. Next to the price, you see the download link.
Certificates are generated from the item description. Therefore, for lots including multiple items, we generate only one certificate.
