Professional Jewellery Valuations You Can Trust

At David Christopher Jewellers, we understand that every piece of jewellery has a story — whether it's a cherished family heirloom, a once-loved antique, or an item you're considering selling or insuring. With over 40 years of trusted experience as a second-generation family-run business and proud members of the CMJ (Company of Master Jewellers), we are pleased to offer our professional in-store jewellery valuation service — your very own personal Antiques Roadshow.

Expert In-House Valuer with Decades of Experience

Our service is carried out by a highly skilled in-house valuer who brings decades of expertise to each appointment. Whether you prefer to sit with us while we examine your pieces or leave them with us for a short time, you can rest assured your jewellery is in safe hands. Every item is thoroughly inspected by our expert jeweller, who will assess its quality, condition, craftsmanship, and intrinsic value before conducting a detailed market appraisal.

Forward-Thinking Market-Informed Valuations

Importantly, we don’t just assess current value — we also consider the direction of the market. This ensures your valuation is as forward-thinking as it is accurate, allowing you to make informed decisions whether for insurance, resale, inheritance planning, or personal knowledge.

Why Accurate Jewellery Valuation Matters

Having your jewellery correctly valued isn’t just about knowing what it’s worth today — it’s about safeguarding its future. Insurance providers often require up-to-date, formal valuations to ensure that in the unfortunate event of loss, theft, or damage, you are fully covered and not left underinsured. Our detailed appraisal documents give you complete peace of mind, knowing your treasured pieces are accurately and professionally valued.

Enhanced Security with Police-Registered Valuations

We go one step further by offering valuation registration through a national police database. This advanced system securely logs your items, creating a digital footprint that can help reunite you with your jewellery if it is ever lost or stolen. Should your items be recovered, law enforcement agencies can easily trace them back to you — providing an additional layer of protection for your most precious belongings.

Book Your Jewellery Valuation Today

Whether it’s a diamond engagement ring passed down through generations, a vintage timepiece, or gold chains you’re curious about, we’d love to welcome you into one of our stores for a valuation. We offer expert advice in a relaxed, friendly setting — the hallmark of our family business for over four decades.

Let David Christopher Jewellers be your trusted partner in protecting and understanding the true value of your jewellery.
