Why invest in fine jewellery

Fine jewellery may come with a high price tag, but it is well worth it, for many reasons. Not only can you enjoy wearing a stunning piece of jewellery, but, if you keep your jewellery in good condition, you may find you have an appreciating asset too. If you are undecided about whether to invest in fine jewellery, look no further - here are our top reasons why it’s worth it.

Excellent quality
Only the best materials are used to create a piece of fine jewellery, precious metals, like gold and platinum, and gemstones, such as diamonds, rubies and emeralds. The high quality of materials means your jewels won’t tarnish over time, even when worn daily, whilst the craftsmanship in creating each treasure is second-to-none and will be evident in the finished product.

To mark a special occasion
Often, the reason for purchasing a piece of jewellery is to mark a meaningful occasion, like a big birthday, engagement, wedding or anniversary. Fine jewellery is a very special gift to commemorate one of life’s big moments. So, if you have an important event coming up, make sure you add fine jewellery to your wish list.

The perfect heirloom
Due to the longevity and exquisite beauty of fine jewellery, it is very likely it will be passed down through the generations for children and grandchildren to treasure. It also a great way to keep family history alive, especially if there is a story to tell behind it.

A valuable asset
Whilst you should enjoy your jewellery now, if you do decide to sell, the good news is that fine jewellery often becomes more valuable over time. When choosing your jewellery make sure you are aware of the different gemstones and precious metals, as some retain their value better than others. For example, the higher the gold content, the more valuable it will be. Plus, if it is a rare, one-off creation, you might have a possession worth more than you think.

Designed for you

If you don’t want to buy a ready-made piece of jewellery off the shelf, you can choose to have something unique created. Bespoke fine jewellery, as the name suggests, is designed just for you, with gemstones and metals of your choice. It is particularly exciting to witness the design process and see your creation come to life. If you have a piece of fine jewellery that is perhaps a little dated, another option is to have it remodelled to create a new and special one-off piece.

There are many benefits to investing in fine jewellery, from the pure enjoyment of owning and wearing something beautiful, to the financial benefits and memories that it will hold for you and your loved ones over generations to come. All things considered, it’s definitely a choice worth making.
