What We Buy

We purchase a wide range of gemstone jewelry set in precious metals, including:

Precious and semi-precious gemstones in jewelry:

Diamond, colored diamond, ruby, sapphire, emerald, amethyst, aquamarine, citrine, topaz, peridot, tourmaline, tanzanite, spinel, and more.

Additional gemstones set in jewelry:

Alexandrite, coral, jade, morganite, onyx, opal, mother-of-pearl, quartz, turquoise, and more.

Lab-grown diamond & gemstone jewelry:

While we do accept lab-grown diamond & gemstone jewelry, it’s important to understand that lab-grown gemstones do not retain resale value in the secondary market in the same way natural gemstones do. As a result, offers on lab-grown pieces are typically based on the value of the precious metal setting only, rather than the gemstone itself.
This includes estate jewelry, vintage pieces, inherited jewelry, and items no longer in use.

Loose Gemstones (Special Evaluation Only)

We also evaluate loose gemstones in select cases. We can only purchase loose rubies, sapphires, and emeralds that are over 1.00 carat in weight. A GIA certificate is not required, but it is highly beneficial and can significantly assist in the evaluation process.

Gemstones that do not meet these criteria are typically only evaluated when set in jewelry.
