Important, rare jewellery — whether 100 years old or a contemporary design bought recently — will always sell. (So, if your divorce is just through and you want to be rid of your fancy yellow diamond engagement ring, do call!)
But while size matters, big rocks don’t always equal big bucks. It’s the combination of carat, cut, colour, clarity AND collectability that determine a gemstone jewel’s worth — and the rarer those stones, the higher that price. In the extreme, it’s why Fancy Red diamonds are worth at least one hundred times more than their white diamond equivalents, and why Old Mine Kashmir Sapphires — the world’s finest, rarest sapphires — are so much more valuable than sapphires from anywhere else on earth.
Telling an average gemstone from a great one takes an expert eye. So, to find out what your jewellery is worth, get in touch today for a no-obligation appraisal.
