Sell jewelry
Some jewelry is worth its metal and stones, some is worth much more because of who made it, when and how well. Describe your pieces and we route them to buyers who know the difference.
- Signed pieces routed to specialist buyers
- Auction against private sale explained honestly
- Estates handled discreetly, piece by piece
Before you sell
Should I sell at auction or privately?
Signed and antique pieces often do better at auction, but you wait months and pay a seller’s commission. Private buyers pay less but pay now. We show both routes.
Does the original box add value?
For signed pieces, yes, sometimes considerably. Keep boxes, receipts, pouches and certificates together.
Can you handle a whole estate?
Yes. Describe it in broad strokes and a specialist will suggest how to split it between auction, private sale and metal value.
