Trusted Jewellery Buyers Across Dorset and Hampshire

Looking to sell your jewellery, get cash for gold, or find out what your luxury watch is worth? South Coast Jewellers offer free home visit valuations across Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Southampton, Portsmouth, Winchester, and the wider South Coast. We buy gold jewellery, silver, platinum, diamonds, gemstones, antique jewellery, luxury watches, and designer costume pieces. Every valuation is carried out by an enhanced DBS-checked, fully insured specialist using live market prices and professional testing equipment. If you accept our offer, you receive same-day payment with no deductions and no hidden fees. If you prefer to think it over, the valuation is yours to keep free of charge. Whether you want to sell a single gold ring, a Rolex you no longer wear, or an entire inherited collection, our home visit service brings expert jewellery valuations to your door anywhere in Hampshire, Dorset, or the surrounding areas.

How our free home-visit valuation works

Booking takes a moment by phone, WhatsApp, or our online form. At a time that suits you, an enhanced DBS-checked, fully insured specialist comes to your home and assesses each piece in front of you, weighing and testing the metal, examining hallmarks, stones, and maker’s marks, and pricing everything against the live market. We explain exactly how each figure is reached, answer your questions, and leave you to decide in your own time. There is never any pressure to sell and never a charge for the visit. If you accept our offer, you are paid the same day by bank transfer or cheque, with no commission and no deductions.

What we buy — and the valuations we provide

We buy gold and silver jewellery, platinum and palladium, loose and mounted diamonds and coloured gemstones, luxury and vintage watches, gold sovereigns and bullion coins, antique and estate pieces, scrap and broken gold, and designer costume jewellery. From a single inherited brooch to a complete collection, every item is weighed, tested, and valued on its own merits, so you always know what you have and what it is genuinely worth.

Valuations for selling are always free and carry no obligation. For other purposes we also provide formal written valuations: insurance (replacement) valuations and probate (date-of-death) valuations for executors, which are charged according to the number of items and the time involved. Whatever your reason — selling, insuring, or settling an estate — we help you choose the right type of valuation before we begin.

Local home visits across the South Coast

Our home-visit service covers Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Southampton, Portsmouth, Winchester, and the surrounding towns and villages, with regular visits across Dorset, Hampshire, Somerset, Sussex, and Surrey. Rather than carrying valuable items into town or trusting them to the post, you have an expert come to you — a safer, simpler, and more discreet way to find out what your jewellery, watches, and precious metals are really worth.

A few anonymised examples of the items we're asked to value across the South Coast — and how each visit played out. Every client's privacy is protected.

An inherited Victorian jewellery collectionEstate & antique

An inherited Victorian jewellery collection

Poole, Dorset

A family asked us to assess a box of inherited pieces — gold lockets, a mourning brooch, and several rings — with no paperwork and no idea of their value.

Each piece was weighed, hallmark-checked, and valued on both its gold content and its antique interest, then bought in full the same day.

A drawer of gold sovereigns and half-sovereignsCoins & bullion

A drawer of gold sovereigns and half-sovereigns

Bournemouth

A retired couple had collected sovereigns over many years and wanted to understand what they were really worth against the live gold price.

We graded each coin, identified two with a collector premium above bullion value, and paid the same day by bank transfer.

A boxed Rolex no longer being wornLuxury watches

A boxed Rolex no longer being worn

Winchester

An owner wanted a fair, no-pressure offer on a luxury watch they'd stopped wearing, without posting it away or visiting a shop.

We assessed the model, condition, and box-and-papers in their home and made a market-based offer accepted on the spot.

A solitaire diamond engagement ringDiamonds

A solitaire diamond engagement ring

Christchurch

Following a bereavement, a client wanted a clear, sensitive valuation of a diamond ring and the choice to sell or simply keep the figure.

We assessed the diamond's cut, colour, clarity, and carat alongside the metal, explained the figure in full, and left the decision entirely with them.

A bag of broken and odd goldScrap & broken gold

A bag of broken and odd gold

Southampton

Single earrings, snapped chains, and bent rings that looked like 'just scrap' — the owner assumed it was barely worth anything.

We tested and weighed every piece, separated the carats, and paid the live scrap-gold value the same day with no deductions.

A canteen of inherited sterling silverSilver

A canteen of inherited sterling silver

Salisbury

An executor settling an estate needed a fair, documented assessment of a full canteen of cutlery and assorted silverware.

We confirmed the hallmarks, weighed the sterling content, and provided a clear valuation — buying the pieces the family chose to sell.
