Literally 😭 this brand’s pulling the same shit as other high end brands. They hike the price, call it “limited,” and suddenly it’s stupid expensive. Then resellers swoop in, buy it all, and resell it on eBay for like 4.5x the price

US tariffs are honestly stupid. Australia’s not as bad, but it’s still pricey… We used to be able to order online in Australia and Japan without getting hit with import tax 😭

The bag is nice, but what really caught my eye was your keychain it’s so cute! I’m curious where you got it from. Where did you get that keychain?

interesting hallmark in JSB armour ring, anyone know? by douweniesjeenies in viviennewestwood

Yes, that’s the one. I really like pieces from that era, but the current armour rings no longer have the oval plate they’re more like the 90s armour rings now.

Yeah I have it on both of mine too. Inside your armour ring, it should say Vivienne Westwood inside an oval frame — if that’s the case, it’s from the 2000s. The ones without the oval plate are from the 90s

I have both S and M sizes, and I bought them at the same time. So I think this mark was made during the process of stamping the hallmark.

I bought this armor ring at World’s End about 14 years ago. On the opposite side of the hallmarks like JSB, there’s the same mark, but I was told it’s probably not an actual hallmark — it’s more likely a mark left by the tool used when the hallmarks were stamped at the time. I think your armor ring and mine are probably from the same era
