We care about the legacy of your pieces and are committed to caring for your family jewelry while providing you with many options for your collection. Learn more about common motivations for selling estate jewelry as well as how to navigate the experience with JMorgen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Sell Your Estate Jewelry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With our decades in the fine jewelry industry, we\u2019ve seen many reasons why clients are interested in selling their pieces<\/a>. Many heirloom pieces feature designs that were in fashion during their original owner\u2019s lifetime, but which appear outdated to the modern eye. Changing tastes and styles leave many families with lovely heirloom pieces that simply aren\u2019t worn. However, these tangible parts of your family history don\u2019t need to stay untouched in a jewelry case or safety deposit box. There are many ways to refresh classic pieces and give them a new life.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upgrade Unworn Items<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many heirloom pieces remain unworn because they don\u2019t fit their current owner\u2019s preferences. This is especially common with estate pieces that have been in the family for a relatively short amount of time. Jewels inherited from a parent or grandparent may simply look old-fashioned, as opposed to stylishly vintage or antique. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve inherited fine jewelry but are never excited to wear it, consider upgrading these pieces into something more current. JMorgen specializes in updating estate jewels to a modern look and feel that suits your personality. These designs still have a touch of nostalgia to help you celebrate your history every time you wear them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintain An Emotional Connection<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, estate jewelry and other inherited items can lead to conflicts among surviving family members. It\u2019s only natural for many siblings, cousins, and other relatives to desire a tangible reminder of their loved ones. Luckily, heirloom jewels offer a unique opportunity to give beloved pieces to as many family members as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider breaking estate jewelry into multiple pieces to offer many family members a part of their history. JMorgen can distribute historical pieces into smaller sets, such as transforming a set of earrings into two rings, a multi-stone bracelet into multiple solitaires, or a necklace into cufflinks. These new pieces maintain an investment while offering value to the next generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Downsizing Possessions For A Streamlined Lifestyle

<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At JMorgen, we also see clients who are ready to downsize their possessions. These clients aren\u2019t interested in a new piece of jewelry but simply want to streamline their lives. If you\u2019re ready to realize the investment you\u2019ve made in fine jewelry, we are here to help. We purchase many fine stones and metals and are happy to guide you through the sales process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
