Is Buying Jewelry a Good Investment?

TrueFacet Holiday Shops Sale

There are several things in life that you just know will be a good investment. Certainly real estate is one of them. The stock market is too. While these are two of the better known investment opportunities, they’re far from your only options. Jewelry can be a great investment too! We’re not talking about cheap costume jewelry, of course. Fine jewelry and designer pieces never lose their value. In fact, they grow more value over time. That’s what makes them a fantastic investment!

Why is Jewelry a Good Investment?

Jewelry is always a good investment, plain and simple. Materials such as gold and diamonds have been in high demand for centuries, regardless of any other trends, problems, or economic factors happening. This high demand keeps your jewelry valuable and profitable in case you have to resell it. Unlike cash, whose value fluctuates depending on the economy, jewelry with higher gold content is always valuable! 

Your gold necklace doesn’t always have to stay a gold necklace. Gold can be melted and converted into a new piece of jewelry, or something totally different like a gold bar or coin. Diamonds are equally sought after, because they can be removed from their settings and reused to create new pieces. Large,top-quality diamonds are valued for their cut, high clarity, and lack of imperfections. This won’t be changing anytime soon!

Which Jewelry Pieces Will Have High Value?

The stock market may go up and down, but the value of fine jewelry does not. Certain pieces of jewelry have a very promising future, according to industry experts. These include natural saltwater pearls, colored and fancy diamonds, rare vintage rings, sapphires, gold and platinum pieces, emeralds, and rubies. With this in mind, these are some of our top recommendations for those looking to make an investment they can wear while the value goes up:

HERITAGE GEM STUDIO Neck PEARLS W/ Silver Clasp White Pearls 

MIKIMOTO Vintage Pearl Ring

Vintage Platinum Diamond Ring Size 6

Vintage Engagement Ring 2.53ct Royal Blue Sapphire 14k Diamond Ring

Sapphire, Diamond And Gold Floral Brooch

Emerald Diamond Gold Bracelet

Gold, Ruby, Sapphire And Emerald Bracelet

Not only are these pieces absolutely stunning, they’re a smart purchase because the value will only go up over time. This means if you ever need to sell the piece, you’ll make your money back and then some. Hopefully you’ll never need to sell it and you will have value pieces to pass on to your heirs, so their net worth raises too.

The three most common investments people choose are gold, real estate, and stocks. We would humbly like to add diamonds to the list. They’re more than just a girl’s best friend; they’re everyone’s best investment! Over the last ten years, jewelry investments have outperformed the US equities, New York real estate, and gold bullion. That’s wonderful news for someone like you who has some fine pieces and is looking to shop for more.
