Buy and Sell Jewelry

We buy and sell jewelry all the time. Antique jewelry is very popular. If you have a piece of jewelry lying around your home, bring it in and we’ll appraise it for you. If you’re looking for that specific costume brooch, contact us and we’ll try to help you out.

There are many different types of antique jewelry. We buy and sell jewelry of all kinds. Here are some of the kinds of jewelry we deal with:

• Gold and sterling silver jewelry - We will appraise any gold and sterling silver jewelry that you have: necklaces, rings, bracelets, etc.
• Medals - If you have any military medals or trophies of any kind, we can appraise and purchase them from you. We buy and sell jewelry from any military branch.
• Diamonds - If you have any type of diamond jewelry, we’ll appraise this as well. This includes diamond engagement and wedding rings.
• Costume jewelry - Costume jewelry is designed specifically for fashion. It is often gaudy and not made of the finest metals, but people who buy and sell jewelry have a special love for costume jewelry. There are three different historical periods from which costume jewelry hails:
  • Art deco period - The costume jewelry from the art deco period is said to have originated from Coco Chanel. The Art Deco costume jewelry period is generally considered to run from 1920 to 1939.
  • Retro period - The Retro costume jewelry period happened between 1935 and 1950. During this time the styles of jewelry were influenced by the previous Art Deco styles, but new and different. Colored gemstones and bow and flower shapes were popular.
  • Art modern period - The Art Modern period of costume jewelry ran from 1945-1960. The jewelry changed from its previous styles and rhinestones became more popular.
• Estate jewelry - Estate jewelry falls into two periods: antique jewelry and vintage jewelry. Estate jewelry doesn’t necessarily have to come from an estate sale, but rather the term refers to jewelry that has been previously owned. We buy and sell jewelry from estates, as well as previously owned jewelry.
• Pins - We buy and sell jewelry from sororities and fraternities. If you have an antique pin from a Greek organization, we’ll appraise it for you.

In addition to all of these different types of jewelry, we will certainly be glad to look at anything else you might have to see if we could purchase it from you. Please bring us whatever you have, we’ll be happy to take a look at it.

We couldn’t talk about buying or selling jewelry without mentioning antique watches. We collect all kinds of wrist and pocket watches. We buy and sell jewelry and watches that are name brand, but also other kinds of jewelry and watches. Even if your watch is not in working condition, we will still take a look at it and appraise it. We are not only interested in complete watches, but also watch chains and pieces or parts of watches.

There are so many different periods and styles of jewelry. Some of these time and style periods overlap with one another, so it might be hard for you to tell which period your piece is from. Modern styles of jewelry often mimic all of the classic jewelry styles, so you may not be sure if your jewelry is authentic to its time period. Our professional expertise can help you figure out where and when your jewelry is from. We buy and sell jewelry every day, so we have the tools and the knowledge to help you sell your jewelry. Also, if you’re looking for a specific piece of jewelry from a specific time period, we can help you to try and locate it. If you think you have a piece of jewelry that is worth something, bring it in to be appraised.
