Authenticity
Every piece at Galaida Studios is personally sourced and selected. We research each item carefully — its material, likely origin, and era — before it's listed. Where a maker, origin, or date is confirmed, we state this clearly. Where attribution is less certain, we say so honestly rather than guess.
Condition
All our pieces are vintage or antique, and signs of age, wear, and patina are expected — they're part of an object's history, not a flaw. Each listing includes an honest, specific condition description, and photographs form part of that description. We encourage you to review all photographs closely before purchasing, and to reach out to us with any questions about a piece's condition before you buy.
General Care
- Keep pieces out of direct, prolonged sunlight, which can fade finishes and textiles over time.
- Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
- Avoid harsh or abrasive cleaning products, which can damage old finishes, patina, and plating.
- For a specific piece, if you're unsure how best to care for it, contact us — we're happy to share what we know.
