Welcome to Antique Gold Jewelry

Your source for investing in physical gold you can wear — with history, rarity, and real value.

Considering  investing in  Antique Gold Jewelry, Antique Wedding  Rings, 20th Century Jewelry or  Georgian Jewelry?
Here's why you should:

Investment-grade antique gold and silver jewelry represents a high level of craftsmanship and quality. Jewelry over 100 years old was handmade, not mass-produced.

Men and women around the world are returning to antique jewelry because it’s beautiful AND investment-worthy. Buying gold in the form of jewelry is a rock-solid investment. 

That's a gold fact.  The rarity factor keeps increasing because... well, they don't make Antique Jewelry anymore. Beyond the gold content, Antique Jewelry holds other stores of value: craftsmanship, rarity, and age.

These make investing in physical gold and silver antique and estate jewelry seriously attractive.

Antique Jewelry is Physical Gold Investment 

What investment has a higher store of value than the price of gold today? 

In the social sciences there’s a term called.  *"Atavism"*  the tendency to revert to the ways of a former time. In jewelry, atavism can catapult the price of classic antique pieces above the price of gold itself.

You don’t need an economics degree to invest. Most jewelry dealers and collectors aren’t economists either. What we do have is the ability to sniff out a bargain and knowledge of the subject.

Ancient Egyptian Jewelry

Antique gold jewelry has been around for thousands of years and never goes out of fashion. Just look at the gold ornaments in Tutankhamen’s burial chamber.

From Ancient Egyptian Gold, to Indian antiques, to the sculptured designs of Art Nouveau and Victorian filigree — gold work techniques changed jewelry design forever.

And antique gold has another advantage: it causes little or no negative impact on the environment, unlike new gold mining.

Stability:* Not tied to stocks or currency fluctuations. Gold jewelry holds value. In 2006, US gold jewelry sales reached $44 billion.
