Inherited gold jewellery often comes with uncertainty, and sometimes at a difficult time. You may not know what each piece is, what carat it is or what it is worth. We take that uncertainty away. Send us everything and we do the work: XRF testing on every item, a clear written breakdown and a firm offer within 24 hours. You decide what to sell.

How it works

01

Request your free pack

We send you a free pack with a prepaid Royal Mail Special Delivery label the next working day, at no cost and with no commitment. It is insured up to £2,500 from the Post Office counter until it reaches us. Send everything together; there is no need to sort or identify pieces in advance.

02

We assess everything

Every item is weighed and tested using XRF assay. We give you a clear, itemised breakdown, so you know exactly what each piece contains and what it is worth.

03

Accept or decline

You receive a firm offer within 24 hours of receipt. Accept before 3pm and we pay by same-day bank transfer, or decline and we return everything free of charge.

Common questions

Do I need to know what each piece is or what carat it is?

No. We test every piece with XRF, a professional, non-destructive test. You receive a full breakdown by item and carat before you are asked to make any decision.

What if there's a mixture of gold and non-gold items?

Send everything together. We sort, test and report on each item individually. You receive a clear summary of what is and isn't gold, with an itemised offer for the gold content.

Can I sell just part of an inherited collection?

Yes. Our offer is itemised by piece, so you can accept it for some items and have others returned. There is no obligation to sell everything at once.

Is the process discreet?

Yes, completely. We deal with estates and inheritances regularly and handle every valuation in full confidence. No information is shared with third parties.
