Free Jewellery, Watch & Silver Valuation Event in Battle, East Sussex

Could You Be Sitting on Something Worth More Than You Think?
If you have jewellery, watches or silver tucked away in a drawer, inherited family pieces, or items you no longer wear, now could be the perfect time to discover their true value.
With gold prices remaining exceptionally strong and demand for quality jewellery, luxury watches and antique silver continuing to grow, there's never been a better opportunity to have your items professionally valued.
Join us at Burstow & Hewett's Abbey Auction Gallery for our FREE Watches, Jewellery & Silver Valuation Event, where our in-house Gemmologist will provide expert, no-obligation auction valuations.

Free Expert Valuations from Our In-House Gemmologist
Your valuation will be carried out by Will Ellin FGA DGA, our in-house Gemmologist and specialist in watches, jewellery and silver.
As a Fellow of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain, Will combines specialist gemmological expertise with years of auction experience to provide accurate auction valuations based on far more than just precious metal prices.
Rather than simply assessing the gold or silver content, we consider:
- Designer or maker
- Gemstones and diamonds
- Age and rarity
- Craftsmanship
- Provenance
- Current market demand
- Auction performance
If you choose to sell, your items can be entered into our forthcoming Watches, Jewellery & Silver Auction on 24th September, where they will be marketed to buyers across the UK and internationally.
What Can I Bring?
We welcome individual items or complete collections, including:
- Gold jewellery
- Silver jewellery
- Antique jewellery
- Contemporary jewellery
- Diamond rings
- Engagement rings
- Gemstones
- Luxury watches
- Vintage watches
- Pocket watches
- Silverware
- Silver tea services
- Jewellery collections
- Inherited jewellery
- Unwanted jewellery
- Luxury accessories
Not sure if your item has any value?
Bring it along anyway. Our valuations are completely free and there is no obligation to sell.
Why Sell Jewellery, Watches & Silver at Auction?
Selling through auction allows your items to reach a competitive audience of collectors, dealers and private buyers.
Many pieces achieve significantly more than their intrinsic metal value because buyers are bidding for craftsmanship, rarity, designer names and historical significance.
Our specialist team professionally photographs, researches and markets every item to maximise its potential.
