Independence & Sourcing

Time-Honored Goods is an independent, multi-brand store and editorial archive. We are not owned by, operated by, or the official site of any brand, workshop or house featured here. Brand names appear for identification and editorial purposes only.

Not an official channel

Nothing on this site should be read as a statement made by a house, or as an endorsement by a house of this site. Where a house operates its own official store, that store is the authoritative channel for its brand.

Where our facts come from

Historical and designation facts are compiled from public records, principally the China Time-honored Brand Digital Museum of China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM). Each house page names the source it draws on. We aim to correct errors promptly — write to hello@timehonoredgoods.com.

Imagery

We do not present third-party product photography as our own. Where an archive image is used, it is labelled as an archive image and its origin noted. Where we have no licensed image, we say so rather than substitute a lookalike.

Buying and fulfilment

When we offer goods for sale, they are bought to order for the buyer (pre-order / proxy purchase): we purchase after your order is placed and ship internationally. Availability, lead time, duties and return rights are set out on the individual product page and in Shipping & Duties and Returns.

Corrections

If you represent a house and believe something here is inaccurate, contact us and we will review it and, where warranted, correct or remove it.
