If you've never made the investment in pre-owned jewellery before, we can advise you on why doing so may well end up being one of the best buying decisions you can make:
Like any item that's purchased new, the value of jewellery will immediately depreciate the moment you pay for it. After the buying, the value of new jewellery pieces can decrease by 20-40% – so if you intend to sell them on in the future, pre-owned vintage jewellery will give you more of an opportunity to garner a profit.
When you consider the budget you will have available to buy your second-hand jewellery with, you will be more likely to find that any funds, originally intended to buy a new piece, will be able to afford a better quality of gemstones and precious metals of a pre-owned piece.
Unlike brand-new jewellery, second-handpieces can retain the price you have paid for them. As trends come and go, and the values of certain metals and gemstones fluctuate, the age of a jewellery item will become almost irrelevant. It's only the most well-used of pieces that will offer the best value.
With any well-made jewellery piece able to last for multiple generations, there is a vast range of pre-owned jewellery out there to be explored. As trends and fashions change by each passing year, jewellery has been no exception – from the last 100 years alone, popular pieces have ranged from the pale metals, diamonds and pearls of the Edwardian era to the larger yellow gold rings and coloured gemstones of the 1970's and beyond.
One of the main reasons why people invest in second-hand jewellery is to pass them down through the family line. As investments in stocks and shares have proved to be highly unstable in recent years, people have been looking for more substantial products to safeguard their money in. These include the gold and gemstones that comprise jewellery, as well as the high-quality manufacturing behind luxury watches. Passing jewellery and watches through the family isn't just great to provide them with a monetary benefit; every piece made will have its own unique history too – not just how and where it was created, but who has owned it and the environments and positions it has found itself in whilst being worn.
