However before we can determine the amount we are willing to pay, we must of course see the items in person first. We regularly hold buying days across the UK, where clients can obtain an on the spot valuation and choose to sell if they wish. To find out when and where we are next browse our Events Page.

Alternatively you may send your item(s) to us by either registered insured mail or by an alternative, insured method. For very high value pieces or large collections we can arrange to visit you at your home, business or bank vault. After arriving at a mutually agreeable price, we will simply send you a check, cashiers check, bank transfer or any other payment method, which you may prefer.

 

Showcase

 

Alternatively if you wish to showcase your piece(s) on our hugely popular website. we will require 60 days minimum to photograph, catalogue, and market your jewellery to our world-wide loyal and varied clientele and customer base. You can expect to receive about 20% to 33% more than a direct sale price, this is your Showcase price.

* Your Showcase price is established at time of showcase agreement, not upon sale.

Antique and Estate Jewellery

We buy fine jewellery from every important design period; from 19th century Georgian and Victorian Jewelry; 20th century Edwardian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco jewellery all the way through the fabulously stylish 40's and 50's up to the present day.

 

Object D'Art

We acknowledge that there will be some signs of wear on antique and estate jewellery. Jewellery in flawless condition is a rare commodity and therefore demands a higher value, just as where jewellery with apparent alterations and restoration can detract from the value. Repairs can also result in devaluation as well.

 

We hope this brief explanation in selling your antique jewellery, estate jewellery, antique engagement rings, diamonds and gemstones has been helpful.
