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.
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.

Although they claim on their website to offer better prices than those achievable at auction, I was offered less than half the scrap value for multiple silverware items. I was told that although a 4 piece silver tea set was in good condition, it had no real saleable value as “people don’t really want to buy silver tea sets”. I was also told that I would have to subtract the weight of 3 bakelite handles, and that this would be 500 grams. When I took the handle off a damaged teapot I was sending for scrap, it weighed 48 grams. So a certain amount of inflation was going on there! When I said that I was not prepared to accept the offer, I was asked “Well what are you going to do with it then?” It felt like I was being pressured to sell at the very low offer. I politely declined. Today, I scrapped a damaged silver teapot and 2 small jugs (970g) for more than half the offer made by Burlington’s, and the tea set (2kg) will go to auction.

Craig visited my home a short while ago, to value some jewellery and provided some excellent advice. Craig presented a thorough valuation all while, maintaining a no-pressure approach. The valuation was fair, and Craig came across as a genuinely kind and courteous person. I would thoroughly recommend Burlingtons Ltd, to anyone looking for a professional and a trustworthy valuation.
