Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions

How does an initial assessment take place?+

You may visit us without an appointment at 43 rue Beaubourg, or send us photos and a description via the confidential form. A state-certified gemmologist will examine your pieces in your presence, explain each value criterion and, if you wish, make a firm offer.

What types of jewellery do you assess?+

Signed jewellery from the great maisons (Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari, Boucheron, Chaumet…), diamonds — certified or not —, antique jewellery and important coloured stones: sapphire, ruby, emerald.

Do you work on estate matters?+

Yes, this is one of our core activities. We assist heirs, families and notaries: objective appraisal of pieces, advice on selling or keeping, and immediate purchase if desired, in complete confidentiality.

Are you direct buyers?+

Yes. Unlike intermediaries and auction houses, we buy directly, with no commission or delay: the offer is firm and payment immediate. We also sell certified diamonds and exceptional jewellery.

Do you guarantee confidentiality?+

Absolutely. No piece appears in a public catalogue, no file is shared. The assessment takes place in-store, one-on-one, and each transaction is settled in strict compliance with French regulations.
