You may have more value sitting in your jewellery box than you realise.
You don't need to sort everything out before visiting us. If you have jewellery you are considering selling, simply bring it in and let us take a look.
We can assess items including:
Old rings and gold jewellery you no longer wear.
Including pieces that are damaged, tangled or no longer worn.
Including single earrings whose partner has been lost.
Including individual pendants and lockets, even without their original chains.
A broken clasp or damaged setting doesn't necessarily mean the gold itself has lost its value.
Bring your watch in and we can advise you further.
If you have inherited jewellery that you have decided not to keep, we can help you understand what you have before you decide what to do with it.

For many gold assessments you can simply visit us in the Oxford Covered Market. If you have a larger collection or would prefer to arrange a particular time, please contact us beforehand.
No. We can assess your jewellery and explain our offer without any obligation to proceed. The decision to sell is entirely yours.
That's not a problem. Bring the pieces with you and our team can examine them.

Yes. If you have inherited jewellery and have decided that you may wish to sell it, we can examine the pieces and discuss them with you.
The amount we can offer depends on the pieces being assessed and factors such as their gold content and weight. Our team will examine the jewellery and explain the offer to you.
I would not publish an answer to this until we confirm exactly what John Gowing currently purchases—for example platinum, silver, coins, watches, diamonds or other precious items. Once you confirm the buying policy, I'll write this answer accurately rather than make a claim the business may not fulfil.
