How to Sell Jewelry

Before you embark on selling your jewelry, understanding its intrinsic worth is crucial. This initial step empowers you to navigate the selling process confidently and ensures you get a fair price. Here's how to effectively evaluate your jewelry:

Identify Materials (Metals and Gemstones)

  • Metals: Distinguish between precious metals like gold, platinum, and silver, and non-precious metals like brass or copper. Look for hallmarks indicating metal type and purity (e.g., 14k for 14-karat gold).
  • Gemstones: Research common gemstones (diamonds, sapphires, rubies, emeralds) and their identifying characteristics like cut, clarity, color, and carat weight. Look for any certificates or documentation from reputable gemological labs.
