Layaway Information

Do you offer layaway?

We gladly offer layaway on all items. This can range from 3 to 12 months payment plans depending on the price of the item.


Layaway is offered at no additional fees, regardless of the length of time. This is something that we pride ourselves in - making antique pieces accessible for everyone.

How do I begin layaway on an item/or items?

Under each product listing, there will be a description of the maximum number of monthly payments accepted for the particular item. Once you have decided on the amount of payments you require, we simply divide by the amount of payments needed.


Shipping cost is only added on the last layaway payment at checkout.


You may then notify us at the "Contact Us" page, click here, or by DM @lace.jewels on Instagram, of the item(s) you require layaway on, and the amount of payments needed.


We will set up a layaway listing for you on the product's listing page, and the first month's payment is required to secure the item(s) for you. Thereafter, you may pay towards your layaway in monthly payments on the product listing until your layaway plan is completed.

What if I need a longer period to complete my layaway than stated on the product listing?

We are flexible & understanding toward your circumstances. If you need a little more time to complete a layaway than the maximum amount of payments specified in the product listing, please get in touch through the "Contact Us" page, click here, and we will be happy to work out a plan that works best for you!
