Sell your costume jewellery

Costume jewellery has a charm of its own. Colourful stones such as jade, amber, opals and sapphires along with designer pieces are worth including in the box you send.

Costume jewellery: bead and crystal necklaces, a pink glass brooch, a boxed gold-tone cross and small brooches.

What we look for in costume jewellery

What makes costume jewellery valuable?

It comes down to age, maker and material. Check the back of a piece for a maker’s name; names such as Chanel, Dior, Sphinx and Butler & Wilson help. We especially like to see Bakelite, amber, Czech filigree, early plastics and rhinestones, and Art Deco pieces.
