Your Fast Professional Method for Selling Estate Jewellery

Selling estate jewellery is a deeply personal decision that requires trust, discretion, and a deep understanding of the market. Fortunately for you, we have earned our name as one of the UK’s most trusted private buying and selling services.

We’ll be glad to work with you on the sale of your pieces, whether they’re antique jewellery, vintage jewellery, or simply older or rare designs that would be coveted by collectors. We’ve done this for clients across the country, for over 25 years.

We visit clients in the comfort and security of their own homes to provide accurate, honest assessments of their jewellery. All of these valuations are no-obligation and entirely free to book. We’ll also offer immediate payment once the items have been examined.

Listening to Your Needs and Concerns

Whether you’re downsizing, managing an inheritance, or simply looking to refresh your collection, the process of selling estate jewellery can feel overwhelming. The jewellery is not just valuable in terms of money; it may also carry emotional weight and memories that make selling a significant decision. At Burlingtons Ltd., we recognise these challenges and are here to make the experience as smooth, comfortable, and rewarding as possible.

We will take all the time necessary to listen to you about your jewellery and its story, will offer empathy and understanding, and can reinforce your confidence against some common concerns.

Never Miss Out on Your Piece’s True Value

With market fluctuations and the specialised knowledge required to assess antique pieces, many worry that they won’t receive a fair price for items that may hold sentimental and historical significance. We ensure you receive a valuation backed by deep market knowledge and a network of international connections. Our valuations often exceed auctions’ estimates, providing you with confidence in the true worth of your pieces.

Personalised Experience

Auction houses often provide standardised, impersonal service, and buyers from other sources may be unreliable or offer subpar prices. The thought of dealing with these uncertainties can make the selling process stressful. We take a different approach – our experts personally handle each valuation, meeting with you in your own home to ensure a private, bespoke experience that is both professional and transparent.

Our Guided Process

The estate jewellery market can be complex and intimidating, with different avenues for selling and a range of potential buyers. From assessing market value to handling transactions, the process can be confusing and time-consuming. We remove this burden, guiding you through every step of the selling journey. From the initial consultation to the final payment, we simplify the process, making it as straightforward and hassle-free as possible.

Our Stellar Reputation

Expertise and trust are at the core of our service. Our founder Daniel Ives brings over 25 years of industry experience, offering unparalleled knowledge in antique and estate jewellery. His deep understanding of market trends and historical significance allows him to provide accurate valuations that often surpass those offered at auctions.

Additionally, Daniel’s extensive network of international collectors ensures that your estate jewellery is matched with the right buyers, giving you the chance of achieving the best possible price.

Our Simple Service

We’ve tailored our entire service to meet the unique needs of individuals looking to sell estate jewellery with ease, transparency, and confidence. Here’s why our service is designed to benefit you:

Keep the Full Value of Your Jewellery

Auction houses can take a significant portion of your proceeds through commissions and hidden fees. We believe you should keep the full value of your estate jewellery. That’s why we don’t charge any commissions, fees, or additional hidden costs. The price we offer is the price you receive, allowing you to maximise the return on your items without worrying about deductions.

Immediate Payments

Waiting for auction results can be time-consuming and stressful, often leaving sellers uncertain about the final outcome. We eliminate this uncertainty by offering instant payment. Once your item has been valued and the offer is accepted, you’ll receive payment immediately.

Convenience and Security

Our home valuation service is designed for your convenience, ensuring that you never have to transport your valuable estate jewellery. Our expert will come to your home, providing a safe, confidential assessment on-site. This ensures both your valuables and personal information are handled with the utmost care and discretion.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Selling With Us

Selling second hand jewellery of any kind is simple and hassle-free:

Initial Consultation

Contact us to discuss your estate jewellery, and we’ll provide a preliminary assessment based on the information you share (for example, it may be worth more if it’s gold with diamonds, as opposed to pearl jewellery).

Personal Valuation

Our expert will personally visit your home for a thorough evaluation, offering a secure and convenient experience tailored to your needs.

Fair Offer and Immediate Payment

Based on current market trends, our expert will present a fair offer. If accepted, you’ll receive immediate payment, meaning there is no waiting and no uncertainty.

Craig came to my home as a follow up to me contacting Burlingtons by phone. He was very honest and gave advice on a range of rings and other jewelry I showed him. He explained the state of the buying market and offered to buy some items but suggested that others would be best kept as a family heirloom. I felt he was fair and,importantly, I felt comfortable with his offer. The buying process was straightforward and easily checked.

Excellent service by Craig from Burlington’s . Valuation and selling some old unused pieces . Made it very easy and received a good price for . Very good communication and comes to your home making it a very easy transaction.

Charles Fortt

13th January 2026

Wanting to sell a gold pocket watch and chain, I searched first for auction houses, and the highest estimate was £3000. Fees and commission would have reduced this figure considerably, with no guarantee of achieving the highest valuation. Burlingtons offered £2600, much more than was offered by a specialist watch dealer, antique dealer and pawnbroker. Daniel was highly attentive to emails and phone calls to arrange the meeting at my home, was punctual and business-like, and paid the money into my bank account on the spot. Trust is paramount in this kind of transaction, and I would highly recommend Burlingtons as a trustworthy and reliable service.

I contacted Daniel by e-mail yesterday and he came out today to look at Mum's jewellery, that she no longer wanted to wear. She had been unable to sell these as jewellery and was only being offered gold scrap value. He gave what I felt was a fair scrap offer for the gold items and the money was transferred immediately into her account. Happy to recommend.

Fantastic Experience Selling Jewelry to Craig at Burlingtons Ltd. I recently sold a few pieces of jewelry to Burlingtons Ltd, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire process. From start to finish, Craig was professional, courteous, and made me feel completely at ease. He took the time to carefully assess each piece and I never felt rushed or pressured into making a decision. His transparency and honesty were truly appreciated. Craig gave me a fair and competitive offer, which made the transaction feel smooth and trustworthy. If you’re looking to sell your jewelry, I highly recommend Craig at Burlingtons Ltd. He is knowledgeable, reliable, and makes the experience stress-free. I’ll definitely be returning in the future.
