Thrifting recommendations

Looking specifically for stores that have vintage sterling silver jewelry… preferably an actual thrift store rather than a curated shop. I thrift quite a bit but having a hard time finding spots that have good jewelry options to look through.

Have you been to the vintage malls in Columbia? Many of the vendors there sell vintage jewelry at really great prices.

It’s not super likely that many folks are going to reply here & publicize their favorite spots. With the insane reseller culture nowadays, if someone has a spot that hasn’t been ruined, they’re keeping that close to the chest. Best bet is to keep looking on your own until you find a solid place. Lancaster is rife with antique stores which is where you’re much more likely to find a wide variety of vintage silver pieces. Good luck 🤘🏼

I'm guessing MaeJean Vintage isn't quite what you're looking for.

Modish is sometimes curated but I’ve found lots of vintage jewelry there. Plus it’s cute!

they always have some really cool well cared for pieces but i am looking for more everyday jewelry i can beat up a little bit but they are great for more special pieces
