What Affects the Value of a Diamond Ring?
The value of a diamond ring depends on more than carat weight alone. Our specialists consider the quality of the diamond, including colour, clarity, cut and overall appearance, as well as the design of the ring, condition, age, craftsmanship and whether the piece is by a recognised maker.
Antique and vintage rings can carry additional appeal because of their setting style, hand-cut stones and period character. Modern signed rings may perform strongly where brand recognition and diamond quality combine.
Diamond Ring Valuations
If you are asking how much your diamond ring is worth, our jewellery specialists provide free, confidential auction valuations. We can advise on likely estimate, sale timing and whether your ring is best suited to one of our regular jewellery auctions.
Valuations are available online or in person at our valuation days in Edinburgh, London and Glasgow. You can submit photographs and details for an initial assessment, or arrange an appointment with one of our jewellery specialists.
