Professional Jewellery AND WATCH Valuations right on your doorstep

Whether you require a family heirloom valued, an engagement ring, or a collection of precious jewellery, knowing the true worth of your items is essential. At Birmingham Assay Office, we’re committed to making the jewellery valuation process easier and more accessible.
This service is delivered by our team of qualified expert valuers who will assess and value your precious possessions for insurance purposes, probate or simply to confirm the value if you sold the piece on the open market.
THE POSTCODE FINDER
We’re thrilled to introduce our postcode finder, a new feature that makes it even easier to get your items valued. This tool allows you to quickly locate the nearest partner store offering our professional valuation service. Simply enter your postcode, and in seconds, you’ll know where to go for a convenient jewellery or watch valuation.
FLEXIBLE OPTIONS FOR GETTING YOUR JEWELLERY VALUED
At Birmingham Assay Office, we understand that convenience is key. That’s why we offer several ways to get your jewellery valued, all of which provide the same level of care and expertise:
Drop Off or Post Your Jewellery to Birmingham Assay Office
If you prefer to visit us directly, you can drop off your jewellery at our headquarters in Birmingham. If visiting in person isn’t an option, you can securely post your items to us for valuation.
Visit One of Our Trusted Partner Stores
We’ve teamed up with a number of leading jewellery retailers across the UK to make our professional valuation service more accessible. Trusted stores such as Goldsmiths, Mappin & Webb, Watches of Switzerland, Beaverbrooks, Timpsons, In-Time, The Watch Lab, and many more independent retailers are all part of our network.
Join Us at a Valuation Event Day
For even more convenience, we hold Valuation Event Days at stores across the UK. These events bring our expert valuers to a location near you, allowing you to have your jewellery valued right on-site without the need to send it away.
OUR PROFESSIONAL VALUATION SERVICE AND PRICING
Birmingham Assay Office offers independent, impartial, and professional valuations, including screening for laboratory-grown diamonds. We provide valuations for a variety of purposes, such as insurance, probate, family division, sale between parties, open market, and post-loss appraisals.
Valuations start at £90, and our team is happy to guide you through the process. Get in touch today to find out more about our services and how we can assist you.
