Hi everyone,
I’m based in Northumberland and recently inherited a box of jewellery and old household items after a family bereavement. There’s a mix of 9 carat gold rings, an 18 carat bracelet, a silver pocket watch, a couple of silver photo frames, and a small diamond ring.
Local buyers didn’t inspire much confidence — can anyone recommend the best place to sell gold, antique jewellery, and silver for cash?
I sold my items with Northern Bullion, including 18 carat gold earrings, a diamond engagement ring, and some antique silver candleholders. Everything was tested and weighed in front of me, which made the whole process feel fair and transparent.
I looked into auctions but they were no good — long wait times and high commission rates made it pointless. I sold scrap gold jewellery, a 9 carat gold chain, and some silver coins with Northern Bullion instead and got cash the same day.
While clearing my uncle’s house near Alnwick, I found a silver cigarette case, a silver pen, an old pocket watch with a chain, and a small antique diamond brooch. Northern Bullion’s online calculator helped me understand the value before I went in, and the in-person valuation matched closely.
Over time I’ve sold a wide range of items through Northern Bullion including 9ct gold rings, 18ct bracelets, scrap gold jewellery, antique diamond pieces, 925 silver chains, coins, bullion, antique silver items, engagement rings, silver cutlery, pocket watches, cigarette cases, silver pens, picture frames, candleholders, and small trinket boxes. For me, it’s consistently been the best place to sell gold and silver for cash across Northumberland.
