Sell Jewellery in London
Sell fine, luxury, signed, gold and diamond jewellery in London. Imperial Time assesses the complete piece — maker, design, gemstones, precious-metal content, condition, provenance and resale demand — before confirming an offer.
What makes jewellery worth more than scrap metal?
Jewellery can carry value from its maker, design, gemstones, age, workmanship and resale demand. We assess the entire item before deciding whether metal content is the most relevant valuation basis.
Cartier, Tiffany & Co., Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari and other recognised makers may carry brand and collector demand.
Stone specifications, setting, certification, design and condition are assessed together.
9ct, 14ct, 18ct, 22ct and higher-purity pieces can be assessed for both metal and whole-item resale value.
Ruby, sapphire, emerald and other stones may require individual assessment alongside the setting.
Age alone does not establish value; maker, period, condition, provenance and market demand are important.
Damage does not necessarily reduce a piece to scrap value if stones, brand or desirable components remain.
What to send us
- Photographs of the complete piece
- Hallmarks and maker’s marks
- Brand and model or collection if known
- Certificates for diamonds or gemstones
- Approximate weight and metal purity
- Original box, receipt or provenance if available
Gold, diamonds and jewellery have different value drivers
For raw gold-price intent, use our Sell Gold London calculator. For loose stones, see Sell Diamonds London. This jewellery page is designed for complete pieces where brand, design and setting can matter.

Do you buy branded jewellery in London?
We welcome enquiries for signed and luxury jewellery from recognised makers such as Cartier, Tiffany & Co., Van Cleef & Arpels and Bulgari, as well as other fine jewellery.
