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 Dazzling diamond rings with outdated insurance valuations have sold over and above our vendor’s expectations for £18,000.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.
