Understanding the Value of Your Jewellery

Before you rush to sell, it’s crucial to understand what determines your jewellery’s worth. Several factors come into play:
- Purity of Precious Metals: The value of gold, silver, or platinum pieces largely depends on their purity, often measured in karats for gold. The higher the purity, the more valuable the item.
- Weight and Design: Heavier pieces generally fetch more. However, intricate designs or those from renowned designers can add to the value beyond just the weight.
- Market Demand: The current market prices for precious metals influence the value. Keeping an eye on these trends can help you decide the best time to sell.
