2. Knowing When to Clean an Item
We know how important presentation is when shopping online. In order to make sure every item has the best possible visual, Our team professionally cleans items to remove tarnish, accumulated oils from handling, dust or other detritus that have built up over time. Even more important is knowing when not to clean an item, special consideration is taken when assessing extremely rare or antique jewelry.
Fragile jewelry may have to forgo being cleaned due to construction and at times patina can actually add to the value of hard to find specialty pieces. Letting a professional handle the cleaning will ensure the best-possible results and minimize the chance of damage so you can retain your jewelry’s value before the sale. All jewelry cleaned by EBTH utilizes the most stringent industry standards and specialized equipment.

4. Strategic Groupings
Many factors are considered when deciding how we group, or lot, items; value and material, style and era, as well as trends and aesthetics. From coveted vintage pieces to currently trending styles, our team of jewelry experts and auction curators can identify stand out items in your collection. There is always a market for precious metals and gemstones, these items having the biggest potential for profit are commonly sold as single items.
Most costume jewelry has minimal value in the secondary marketplace, however there are some exceptions to this, like vintage Bakelite jewelry, collectible brands, unique pieces and costume jewelry from high-end designers such as Chanel. Pieces that can stand the test of time or align with the latest “must-have” trends will have the broadest appeal and the best chance of selling at top market prices.
