Art Deco, the God of our industry. This is what I kill for. We want this. As antique dealers, this is what we want at Judy's Antique and Estate Jewelry. If you have jewelry that looks like this, that was not bought a month ago, where it might be a reproduction, but if it was grandma's and it really is grandma's, you probably have a great piece.
If it looks something of this nature, everyone buys jewelry today because the price of gold has hit such record levels. And diamonds are higher than ever also. So take your jewelry to Judy's Antique and Estate Jewelry and have him give you a price that that would be the best thing. And of course not sell it because you want more than one offer on it, your jewelry, if you're getting old.
So like I said, similar offers and all of a sudden you get that one bang offer. That's a lot better than the other ones. Take it, if you like the person and you feel they're trustworthy, that's maybe who you should work with. If you have a bad feeling or you get a little creepy feeling, I would leave. I wouldn't hang around.
What about just the scrap jewelry we have? What should we do with that? Well, the scrap jewelry is easy because the scrap jewelry is just by weight and that's easy. Let's say, for example, gold for the day is ,600 per ounce.
,600 per ounce represents pure gold. Goals that we have make jewelry with is 14 karat, mostly 18 karat, even 10 carrots, 24 characters to softer jewelry. You have to realize you're 14 Karat is 58 and a half percent pure. So unless you have a bullion 24 karat bullion, if the only way that per ounce price will work for you, it's just a matter of shopping to a few places, getting your best offers and taking their best offer. If you feel that the jewelry is older, you might want to go to a Fort Myers antique shop like Judy's Antique and Estate Jewelry, because Sal Lanzieri will pay you more cash for an antique piece than a modern shop will.
