Practical guides to selling jewellery, understanding valuations, and caring for precious items. Expert tips from South Coast Jewellers.

Our guides are written to take the mystery out of selling jewellery, gold, watches and antiques. Whether you have inherited a collection, are downsizing, or simply want to turn unworn pieces into cash, these articles explain exactly how a professional valuation works and what determines the price you are offered. We cover the practical questions people ask most: how items are tested, how live precious-metal prices feed into an offer, and how to prepare for a visit so you get an accurate figure first time. If you would rather see the whole process at a glance, our how it works guide walks through every step from first contact to same-day payment.

A good starting point is our guide to valuing your gold jewellery, which shows how carat, weight and current market rates combine into a figure. If you are weighing up a home appointment, how home visit valuations work explains what to expect on the day. When you are ready for a free, no-obligation assessment of your own pieces, simply get in touch with our team and we will arrange a convenient time to come to you anywhere on the South Coast.
