Why Now’s the Time to Sell Your Estate Jewelry!

Holiday jingles are around the corner, and as we gear up for festivities, it’s the perfect time to talk about a sparkling opportunity! Yep, that’s right—your old estate jewelry could fund this season’s gifts or a trip to a sunny destination, and with gold prices at an all-time high, it’s like finding a forgotten cash stash at the back of your jewelry box.

Let’s face it: the holidays can be a whirlwind of excitement and expenses. Who wouldn’t want to trade in that set of mismatched earrings Aunt Mildred gave you 10 years ago for cash to splurge on this year’s hottest gift or to treat yourself to a fabulous getaway? Think of it like decluttering your jewelry box while upgrading your holiday spirit!

First, let’s discuss what makes this year unique for selling jewelry. Gold is making headlines (and your jaw drops) with its soaring value! In 2024, gold reached a price of over $2700/oz. As your neighbor’s eyes linger on your vintage brooch, you can’t help but think, “Is it time for a separation?” Spoiler alert: it is! Those overlooked necklaces and unworn bracelets could be the ticket to funding the holiday festivities or leisurely travels you’ve been dreaming about.

You might be thinking, “But what if my jewelry has sentimental value?” We get it! That diamond ring might have once sparkled brightly, but if it hasn’t seen the light of day since you said, “I do,” maybe it’s time to rethink its place in your heart. You can always prominently post pictures of those sentimental pieces on your social media, claiming they’re merely on ‘holiday hiatus.’

For those of you who prefer a lighter touch, think of it this way: every piece of jewelry you sell is another notch in your “clean and clutter-free” belt! Not only will your jewelry box thank you, but your holiday shopping list will, too!
