Favorite Cherished Heirloom Jewelry – Should We Review It?

Second box received and also not impressed. Received a cubic zirconia necklace with Made in China stamped on the side – it also has 925 stamped there, but….not very happy with the quality. Also received a charm bracelet with the stone charm glued to the holder – not heirloom to me. Asked them to cancel a few days before renewal and they renewed it anyway and never replied to the email. I went in and cancelled it myself through cratejoy but customer service seems to be nonexistent.

Received my second box and not impressed. Not sure they even read my thoughts about the first box. Cocktail type ring in silver but not marked. Came in a box which stated sterling. Rows of cz stones. They sent a form this time with description and put a value of $50.00 on it. The other piece was a necklace which is awful. Looks like it was pieced together. Gold plated chain with a silver wishbone thing and two dangles hanging off in still another color metal. They valued this one at $60.00. Unlike other subscribers I have received only two items in each delivery. I was so hopeful this would be a better box so was disappointed. My 12 yr old granddaughter will like the ring but don’t think she will even like the necklace.

I received an email after I received my box asking for my thoughts. I appreciated the follow up and responded but did not hear anything back. Will be curious to see what is in the November box.

It sure if anyone is still following this, but here’s what I received.

It came with 5 items
1. Gold plated cocktail ring with 14 clear stones in a circular cluster. It’s actually pretty.
2. Silver ring with large off of center aquamarine stone. It’s marked 925.
3. Silver ring with 12 small diamonds. This is marked sterling. It’s a simple band with stones running across.
4.Silver ring marked 925 with three large garnet colored stones. I doubt the stones are real due to how large they are, but they capture the light and really sparkle. It’s a size larger than I selected.
5. A gold colored bracelet with a chunky chain and two large heart charms. Yikes! Eight year old me would have loved it. I think it was tossed I just to get rid of it.

It was fun to be surprised and I’ll give it another month to decide if I want to get a longer subscription or if I’ve had enough.

I received my box today. I got a ring and earrings set plus another pair of earrings. The ring and earring set have pink and clear stones. The pink stone on the ring is a very large (read – huge) emerald cut and has two clear baguettes on either side. The earrings are the same but on a smaller scale. As someone else noted, all stones are open in back. I requested a size 6 ring, but received 5.5 so it only fits my pinky. I’m taking them to a jeweler to determine if they’re genuine sterling and what the stones are. The last set of earrings I received could be from the dollar store. Very modern design multiple circles hooped together, stamped 925 but are gold. Taking them too to be confirmed sterling. Would I have purchased these at an estate sale? No. Will I give this another month? Yes, two actually – best two out of three wins on whether I keep it or not and of course if the things turn out to be not sterling, that’s a deal breaker right there. It is an intriguing sub. Just would like to receive some truly vintage dainty beautiful jewelry next month. In my actual size.

On an additional note had really hoped for something quirky like the bee ring. Neither item would have been anything I would have given a second glance to.

I signed up for 3 months and received my first box today. I received a ring and pair of earrings. Ring stamped 925 but could not see anything on earrings as pretty small. No other hallmarks. Kind of an 80’s vibe. Was a little surprised as both are gold plated and was expecting silver. Ring is an elongated heart with pave stones and the earrings have a similar look with pave stones. Appear to be nice quality as the stones are all open on the back and hard to tell but looks like no small stones missing. Neither are that exciting to me so will pass on to my granddaughter. Not a fan of heart shaped jewelry. Curious to see what comes next month.

I’m still fighting the urge to get this. I can’t wait to find out what anyone gets. Has anyone received shipping info yet? I’m wondering how long it will take after sign up.

Yes, would love to see a review!

Yes. Would love to see what other people get also.

Sounds intriguing….. Love the detail of vintage pieces. Sterling is my go to.

Love to see it reviewed and agree with the others anonymously would be best. Liking that bee ring.

I signed up for one month to give it a test. It’s too risky to me to sign up for a longer term. I love that bee ring and really hope that’s the type of thing I’ll see.

Wishing there would be a place where people from here could post a photo of what they get….

The fact that they say 1-3 pieces per month gives me pause. At $35/month, unless it’s something REALLY special, I’d rather just buy something I know I’ll love from a local artisan. They don’t carry my ring size and I don’t see any mention of style preferences or particular requests (no pierced earrings and larger bracelets seem like they would be popular options.)

I would love to see it reviewed but even more important, would love to hear what other subscribers get. I really only wear dainty jewelry. I didn’t look at the sub website so maybe they explained it but I would hope you could do some kind of “profile”. For example, no pierced earrings, no bracelets, no huge pendants. Maybe that’s too much to ask?? People source estate sales all the time to sell on eBay, Poshmark, etc. If you’re really looking for estate pieces, you might do better looking elsewhere.

This looks great! Love that bee ring. Definitely interested to see some sample boxes.

Yes, please!!! And anyone who has already ordered, please come back to this thread and give us your thoughts. I will do so also if I can’t stand it and go ahead and order a box.

Definite yes!

Yes, if you review it anonymously. It sounds like an exciting box. I love historical times. 😊

Yes please, I love silver vintage jewelry!

Yes please!

Yes, yes, yes! PLEASE review! This may be the box I need to replace all the beauty subs I recently unsubscribed from. I’m relieved to hear they offer size 8 in rings, although I can only wear that size on my ring finger. And I wonder if they’ll even have many in that size considering it’s as high as they go. Of course, there were many more thin people in previous generations without all the cheap and tempting fast food and junk food options so I guess it makes sense.

I also agree about the box being anonymously reviewed. While I do believe MSA offers a more accurate picture of the average person’s box than many other Influencers and You Tubers (they definitely don’t always get the very best Boxy variations for example), I would feel better if the sub box owner didn’t know it was being sent to a massively popular sub box review website. Perhaps someone known to be very objective like Megan or Marne could have the box sent to their home? That is if they both at least like silver jewelry. I know many people strongly prefer gold. I just think it’s particularly important to see a realistic representation of what “normal” subscribers can expect to receive.
I know there’s at least one jewelry sub box that’s always reviewed super positively on here that I feel has almost all very out of date (vs vintage), cheap and often over-the-top looking jewelry. So it’s equally important to have someone that’s not too easily impressed review it. 😄

Thanks for bringing this box to our attention! I hope everyone who jumped right in, like I am fighting the urge to do, will come back to this post to describe and review their box even if MSA decides not to subscribe.

Awwww, this could be a fabulous box! But I only wear gold. Still, it sounds very promising!

Oh my goodness that bee ring is to die for! Yes please review~!

Yes
