B stands for Burkhardt Jewellers

History: This Toronto-based manufacturing jeweler produced high-quality silver and gold pieces for several decades, spanning from the 1940s through the 1990s.

The Birks Connection: Burkhardt was a major supplier for Canada's premier luxury jeweler, Maison Birks. Many of their engraved brooches, bangles, and lockets were sold directly through Birks stores.

Current Market: Their vintage sterling silver pieces are highly collectible today and frequently traded on secondhand platforms like Etsy Canada or Poshmark Canada.

All jewelry in the Vintage collection has been carefully inspected, cleaned, and polished before being offered for sale.

Some pieces have also been repaired or restored to give them a second life. In certain cases, a stone has been replaced. Any work performed on a piece is clearly noted in its product description.

As vintage items, some pieces may show minor signs of age and wear, which are considered part of their history and unique character.
