Auction is a great way to sell jewellery.
Our fine jewellery experts can provide an auction value estimate of your jewellery or timepieces. We offer two ways to have your jewellery valued – In Person, or via Photographs using an online form.

A little more about selling Jewellery at Auction
Valuations are offered on a no obligation basis. Should you elect to leave your goods to sell at auction, we will provide you with a consignment receipt.
Using Abbeys Auctions to sell your jewellery means that you are showing your items to a large audience of engaged buyers around Australia. Abbeys do all the marketing and promotion on your behalf.
The types of jewellery we sell at auction include pendants, brooches, cuff links, bangles, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, watches, loose diamonds and other gemstones. If you have any other interesting pieces, we would love to see them!
Sell Estate Jewellery
Anything that is pre-owned is considered to be Estate jewellery. The majority of pieces we see at Abbeys are from the mid to late 1900s. Other wide categories of jewellery include antique and vintage jewellery; the descriptions for these are as follows:
– Antique Jewellery
Antique Jewellery typically refers to items that are over 100 years old. We frequently see brooches, pocket watches, fob chains and rings from this period.
– Vintage Jewellery
If it’s vintage, then it’s usually jewellery that is more than 20 years old, but less than 100 years old. Vintage jewellery can also be called mid-century or art deco jewellery. This is because the name reflects the era, or time period when the jewellery was created.
