What Price Will I Get For My Diamond Ring?
Diamonds, regardless of size or weight, will typically fetch an admirable price. However, the cost of each antique diamond ring will vary depending on multiple factors, such as the size of the diamond, the type of ring it’s crafted on, the period and other variables including the market price at the time of valuation. If your ring also features white gold or another form of precious metal, this will also be taken into account.

Antique Diamond Ring FAQs
Are antique diamond rings worth more than contemporary diamond rings?
Not necessarily. Antique diamond rings with some sort of historical significance may be worth more than your standard modern diamond ring, but this is quite rare. In most cases, unless there is something discernible about the antique diamond ring, such as a desirable art deco design, it will fetch a similar price to a modern diamond ring. It’s also worth noting that antique diamond rings are usually warmer in colour due to their age, which may influence the price.
Do antique diamond rings hold their value?
Antique diamond rings will have older cuts that, in some cases, may not maximise the gemstone’s brilliance. Contemporary cuts can achieve a greater aesthetic because of new diamond cutting techniques. In most cases, the better the diamond is cut, the more expensive the ring or jewellery will be.
How can you tell if my diamond ring is genuine?
Our experience in buying and selling precious gemstones for over 20 years has allowed us to hone our craft to an extremely high standard. We can tell if a diamond is genuine in seconds by inspecting the gem using a special magnifying glass. All genuine diamonds, when magnified, will have imperfections in them (known as inclusions), this is the tell-tale sign that the diamond is real and not a fake.
