Consign With Confidence
From appraisal to sale, we take care of every detail—honouring your jewellery’s worth and story.
What We Consider
Elegance Meets Intention
Each piece is reviewed with care, based on its craftsmanship, condition, and alignment with our curated collections and current demand. We accept only a small number of pieces and assess every item individually and thoughtfully.
To be considered, pieces must meet the following criteria:
✔ 9–24 carat gold, platinum, or fine silver
✔ Adorned with precious gemstones (natural or lab-grown)
✔ In very good to pristine condition
Minor repairs may be accepted for high-value pieces by prior agreement (at the owner's cost).
We do not consider:
✘ Costume jewellery
✘ Damaged items (e.g., chipped stones, broken bands)
✘ Items valued under $2,000 (unless by special arrangement)
