Why Choose Us
-
Fair, Clear Pricing
Unlike many gold buyers, we specialise in vintage and antique jewellery. Many older pieces carry value beyond their gold weight, and our experience in antique jewellery allows us to recognise these details when assessing items.
Selling jewellery should feel simple. We keep everything transparent:
- Testing carried out in front of you
- Clear explanations of weight and purity
- No pressure to sell
- Free tracked return if you decline the offer
Many vintage and antique items are valued on their design and character, not just metal weight.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 5 Star Review from Helena E.:
"I had been sorting out my jewellery box, as I had some bits and pieces that I bought years ago and never wore. I did some research for how to sell, and came across Prestige Gold UK’s home visit service online. I messaged Simon on WhatsApp, told him what sort of things I had, and where I live (I’m in Skipton) and we arranged a time for him to come.
"He tested the pieces and talked me through them. He made me an offer which I was happy with. He didn’t at any time try to push me or pressurise me into selling. All extremely professional. I gave him my bank details, and the money was paid by bank transfer, and arrived in my account in just a couple of hours. It was all very easy. I’d also seen a pendant I loved on his website and ended up buying that too!
"I’m so glad I got in touch. Simon made it such a simple process from start to finish." -
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 5 Star Review from Amy N.:
"I recently contacted Prestige Gold UK about selling some vintage jewellery and was really impressed with the service so far. I had tried four other jewellery buyers in Harrogate — one gave me a price, while the others wanted to see the pieces in person before giving me a valuation.
"Prestige Gold was different from the start. They were able to give me an estimate straight away for my 9ct gold, and the price was very competitive and transparent.
"I also really like the flexibility they offer with home visits, which makes the whole process much more convenient. The communication has been friendly and professional, and I’ve never felt rushed or pressured.
"I’m very happy with the service I’ve received so far and would definitely recommend Prestige Gold UK to anyone looking to sell gold or antique jewellery."

Frequently Asked Questions
How do home visits work?
Home visits are ideal if you have five or more items or a small family collection. We arrange a time that suits you, bring a small testing kit and assess everything clearly in front of you. It’s relaxed, friendly and never rushed.
Do I need to commit to selling?
Not at all. There’s no obligation at any stage. If you’re simply gathering information, we’re happy to help.
Is the postal service safe?
Yes. We use Royal Mail Special Delivery, which is fully insured and the safest way
to send jewellery in the UK. We confirm receipt immediately and test everything the same day.
What happens if I don’t accept the offer?
We return your items tracked and free of charge, whether you used the postal service or a home visit.
How quickly do I get paid?
Payment is made instantly. For most sales we use bank transfer, but for smaller amounts we’re also happy to provide cash if preferred.
What do you buy?
We specialise in vintage and antique jewellery, but also buy gold pieces,
Victorian & Edwardian items, vintage chains, charms, signet rings, coins,
medals and silver items. We’re also happy to view small inherited collections.
Can you look at pieces I’m unsure about?
Yes. Many people send items they aren’t certain about — we test everything clearly
and explain what each piece is.
Do you buy scrap or broken gold?
We can assess it, but our main interest is in vintage, antique and resale-quality pieces. If something is only suitable for melt, we’ll always be honest with you.
