Frequently Asked Questions
-
-
Not quite. Vintage is at the heart of ORTENSE, but you'll also find secondhand pieces, handmade goods from independent makers and a small selection of new goods we genuinely love. Everything is chosen intentionally.
-
Not our vintage—at least for now. Vintage is one-of-a-kind, and keeping an online inventory in sync with the shop can be tricky. We’d much rather have you come see what’s waiting for you in person.
If you visited the shop and are still thinking about something you left behind, get in touch. If it’s still available, we’re happy to coordinate shipping.
A small selection of local goods will be available to shop online soon. Check back!
-
ORTENSE offers select mending and alterations, leather cleaning and personal styling. Because every project is different, start on our Services page to tell us what you need. We'll follow up if we think we're a good match.
-
Yes. Every piece is inspected before it hits the floor, and items are cleaned or refreshed when appropriate. Vintage has lived a life, though, so some pieces may show signs of age and wear. We consider that part of their history—and we'll always disclose significant flaws.
-
We don't. Vintage is limited, often one-of-a-kind, and sometimes goes fast. To keep things fair, everything is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
-
Maybe! We buy selectively based on age, condition, quality and what the shop needs at the moment. Visit our Services page for information about what we're looking for and how to submit pieces for consideration.
-
Because most of what we sell is vintage, secondhand, or one-of-a-kind, all sales are final. We encourage you to try things on, inspect pieces and ask us anything before purchasing—we're happy to help.
