Explore Your Options

Outright Purchase

If you are ready to sell, we can explore the possibility of purchasing your jewelry directly, taking into consideration its characteristics, condition, and current market value.

Consignment

Certain pieces may benefit from a consignment arrangement, offering an alternative to an immediate sale. We can discuss whether this approach is appropriate for your jewelry and goals.

Restoration

Some pieces deserve a little extra care. Whether your jewelry has experienced wear over time or has been passed down through generations, restoration may help preserve its beauty and sentimental value.

Redesign or Custom

Give meaningful jewelry a new chapter through redesign, which begins with jewelry or gemstones you already own and reimagining them into something that better reflects your personal style.

Have something entirely new in mind? Custom design allows us to explore a creation from the ground up, bringing your ideas and vision to life.

FAQ's

Do I need paperwork or an appraisal to schedule a consultation?

Not necessarily. If you have documentation, previous appraisals, or information about your jewelry, you're welcome to bring it along. However, you're still encouraged to reach out even if you don't have these materials.

Can you evaluate jewelry from photographs?

Photographs can be a helpful starting point for an initial conversation. However, an in-person examination may be necessary to better understand a piece's characteristics, condition, and potential value.

What if my jewelry is broken or damaged?

Damaged jewelry may still have value or potential for restoration or redesign. We welcome the opportunity to discuss what might be possible for your piece.

Am I required to sell my jewelry after a consultation?

Absolutely not. Our consultations are intended to help you understand your options. The decision to sell, consign, restore, redesign, or keep your jewelry remains entirely yours.
