Unveiling the Potential of Your Inherited and Antique Jewellery

I'm Kim Rix, your personal jewellery (and gemstone) detective. Today, I want to talk about something that might be gathering dust in a drawer somewhere: your inherited and antique jewellery. Whether you’ve recently come into possession of family heirlooms or you’re an enthusiast of vintage treasures, these pieces hold stories and potential value waiting to be uncovered.


Discover the Stories Behind Your Jewellery

We all know that jewellery isn't just about sparkle; it’s about history and sentiment. But let’s be honest, understanding what you've got can be tricky, especially with antique and inherited items. That’s where I come in—offering in-home jewellery advisory and cleaning services to make sense of your collection right where you are.

Personal Touch with Professional Insights

So, what can you expect from this service? First, I offer a thorough in-home assessment to help identify the materials—be it gold, silver, or gemstones—and their potential worth. And let's not forget, every piece gets a professional clean to bring back its original shine.

Organise and Protect Your Treasures

If you're someone who likes to keep things organized (aren’t we all aiming for that Marie Kondo life?), you’ll love my cataloguing and documentation service. This includes practical photography intended for identification rather than artistic flair, perfect for those critical insurance records or estate plans.
