Some of them are very special deals.
Estate Jewelry from our Danville Store
One of the fun things about shopping estate jewelry is the workmanship that went into older rings, pendants and bracelets. Today we’ve become accustomed to mass produced jewelry with designer names. But decades ago, there wasn’t such a thing. Each ring was handmade and proudly bore the signature of the designer who created it. When you ordered your engagement ring, you met the man who was going to be designing it and would be pouring the gold to make it!
Estate Jewelry
It takes a trained eye to appraise jewelry, especially if it is an antique. Just because grandma told you this was a very valuable diamond engagement ring she wears, it might not be so. Once you inherit the ring and have it appraised for insurance purposes, you might find out that grandma didn’t know that grandpa bought her paste. It happens. So, when you’re shopping estate jewelry then you should make sure you purchase only from a fine jeweler with experience in appraisals. This is where you will find the best deals and you can be sure the item is what you are told it is.
