How to Sell Your Antique Estate Jewelry

How to Sell Your Antique Estate Jewelry

Looking to sell your old antique estate jewelry for some extra cash? Below is a guide to help you do just that.

Whether you are looking to sell an old antique ring or a piece of inherited jewelry, you deserve to sell it for the very best price you can get. Before we get into the details we’re going to talk about what exactly an antique estate piece is and then we’re going to talk about where you should sell those pieces.

What qualifies as antique estate jewelry?

Though the terms antique and estate differ when it comes to jewelry, the two can coincide to create a single piece. I masterpiece if you will. Let’s take a look at what each of these pieces means and what that means when you bring the two together.

Antique jewelry

Antique jewelry is any piece of jewelry that is 100 years or older. These are old heirlooms that may have been passed down from generation to generation. Many pieces from the 1920’s or earlier can now be considered antique pieces.

Estate jewelry

Estate jewelry is basically any piece of jewelry that has been used. So in other words, it’s second-hand jewelry. If you’ve ever heard of an estate sale, it’s similar to that. And it doesn’t matter how old the piece is, if it was pre-owned it’s considered an estate piece.

Antique estate jewelry

Now that we understand the difference between antique jewelry and estate jewelry, when you put those two together you have an antique estate piece. This is a piece that is over a100 years old and has been pre-owned by many different people along the line.

Where to sell your antique estate jewelry

When the time comes for you to sell your antique estate jewelry you don’t want to sell it to just anybody. There a few key things you should look for in a seller such as:

  • Does this place the place test the jewelry in front of you?
  • Do they even buy antique estate jewelry? Or do they just buy gold?
  • What’s their reputation like? Is it good?
  • Are they a dedicated (maybe family-owned) business with good practices?
