How Much Is My Jewelry Worth?
Jewelry value comes from three places: the metal (gold, silver, platinum weight), the stones (diamonds and gems), and the maker (Tiffany, Cartier and other signed pieces carry big premiums). A photo plus any stamps you can read gets us most of the way.
Look inside the band or on the clasp for hallmarks: "925" means sterling silver, "585" or "14K" means 14-karat gold, "750" or "18K" means 18-karat. Mention these in the notes, they matter more than looks.
Get the Most Accurate Value
- Photograph any stamps or hallmarks (inside ring bands, on clasps) and mention them in the notes.
- "925" stamps mean sterling silver, valuable for weight plus any maker premium.
- Signed designer pieces (Tiffany, Cartier, David Yurman) are worth far more than their metal value.
- For diamonds over ~0.5 carat, an independent appraisal (GIA) is worth it before selling.
Jewelry, Common Questions
How much is a ring stamped 925 worth?
The "925" stamp means sterling silver. Melt value is modest ($1–3/gram), but designer sterling pieces can be worth many times that. A photo tells us which case yours is.
Can you value jewelry from a photo?
We can identify style, probable materials, and maker signatures, and anchor to comparable sold pieces. For precise gem grading you'd need an in-person appraisal, we tell you when that's worth doing.
Is costume jewelry worth anything?
Sometimes, vintage signed costume pieces (Trifari, Eisenberg, Weiss) have real collector markets. Check before donating.
