Jewellery Auctions Overview

 

Our specialist online Jewellery auctions include the whole spectrum of jewellery, from modern and designer pieces to antique jewellery, coloured gemstone jewellery to fine diamond rings. 

Whether you are selling your family heirlooms, unworn jewellery, or unwanted gifts, our dedicated online jewellery auctions ensure a buyer base of thousands, both locally and internationally, achieving the best hammer price possible for your items.

Our Fine Jewellery auctions take place four times a year, with Timed Online sales running concurrently. This means that there is always a suitable sale for your valuable items, and every level of care is taken to ensure they are showcased most effectively.

 

Jewellery Valuations 

Selling with us couldn’t be easier, contact us to arrange a free valuation of your jewellery, and we take care of the rest. We conduct a thorough and complimentary appraisal service available to all through online valuation requests, face to face appointments and house visits. Whether you are looking for an auction valuation, probate valuation, or insurance valuation, our team are able to assist and advise on the best course of action for your jewellery. 

 

Jewellery Auction Results  

Recent hammer highlights include the sale of a late 19th Century Grand Tour intaglio necklace, comprising twenty-seven hardstone carvings. This unique piece sold for a fantastic £28,000. Dazzling diamond rings with outdated insurance valuations have sold over and above our vendor’s expectations for £18,000. Other discoveries have ensured the sale of a Burmese ruby and diamond cluster ring for £58,000. No matter how your jewellery appears to you, it always pays to have it checked over by a specialist -  many of our greatest finds have been fished out of a box of costume jewellery!

Our team are always happy to look at any pieces you are thinking of selling through auction and are pleased to provide further information with auction estimates.
