Do you have some unwanted jewellery that you don’t use?

 

 

Most of us have some old jewellery at home that we’re saving for the rainy day that never comes. Whether it’s been given as a gift, it’s an out of date style or it’s simply broken, there are plenty of things you can do with it and even make some easy money too. 

 

Clean it

 

Sometimes all your jewellery needs is some loving attention to bring it back to life. A professional clean is a good place to start; once you see the difference in your jewellery, you may decide you'd like to keep it. 

 

Value it 

 

If you're not sure how much your jewellery is worth, taking it to a reputable jeweller to have it valued will help you decide what you would like to do next. It may be worth a lot more than you think, especially if it's a gold item, but you'll never know unless you ask! The jeweller will give you a written valuation, which you can then use as a legal document if you'd like to get the jewellery insured. 

 

Rework it

 

Perhaps your jewellery has sentimental value, but you don't like its style. Why not rework it into something you would like to wear? Many reputable jewellers offer a bespoke jewellery service, working with you to design something extra special.  

 

Pawn it

 

A piece of fine jewellery can be a good thing to keep in case you need to borrow some instant cash. It's a fast and discrete service that doesn't require any credit checks, just some ID and the willingness to leave your jewellery as security until you can pay the loan back. To find out more about the service we provide at Cuttings Jewellers & Pawnbrokers, visit our pawnbroking website.   

 

Sell it

 

You may decide that the best thing to do with your unwanted jewellery is to sell it. If it's a gold piece, you'll be able to get a good price, even if it's broken. The best thing to do is to take the jewellery to a local jeweller and have them make an offer for you. This is a great way to make some easy cash, and then you can buy something you really like.
