Jewelry as a Good Investment
Tuesday, April 1st, 2008
Investment is a must. We need to make what money we have working for us, whether it is for the long term or the short term investment. Think about what fund we need to have for the children’s future education. My girls are only 7 and 5 years old, so we still have a very long road to go. And we cannot be sure of how we are doing in 10 to 20 years, right?
One simplest and oldest way of investment is jewelry. It’s been well known that jewelry such as luxury watches, estate jewelry, and diamond have investment value. The best thing is that we can use the jewelry as well as have it as an investment.
Luxury watches from certain brands like Rolex, Patek Philippe, Cartier, Audemars Piguet, Piaget and more have their own fanatic collectors that for them as watch buyers prices don’t matter. For certain models, the older the years the more expensive those watches can be.
That theory also applies to certain estate and modern jewelry, and also diamond, both loose and in sets. Jewelry buyers usually buy jewelry like Gold & Platinum, Rings, Bracelets, Cufflinks, Earrings, Necklaces, Pendants, Pins & Brooches, Edwardian Jewelry, Victorian Jewelry, Art Deco Jewelry, Antique Jewelry, Vintage Jewelry, Estate Jewelry, and Designer Jewelry (Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Fred, Bvlgari, etc). And, as for diamond buyers, they usually prefer all cuts, colors & clarities of Round Diamonds, Pear Shaped Diamonds, Marquise Diamonds, Oval Diamonds, Princess cut Diamonds, Radiant cut Diamonds, Emerald cut Diamonds, and Fancy Yellow Diamonds.
The good news is that there are some marketplaces where we can buy and sell the jewelry. If we want to sell jewelry, the alternatives are that we can sell it directly or based on consignment. Consignment is the act of consigning, which is placing a person or thing in the hand of another, but retaining ownership until the goods are sold or person is transferred. With consignment, whether it is watch consignment, jewelry consignment, or diamond consignment, although we have already put our jewelry in the market for sale, we still own it until someone buy and pay for our jewelry.
This is a very good investment. If you are not sure about the present value of your jewelry, you can just get online quotes. Then you know what your investment value is, and the future value might be.
