About Van Cleef & Arpels Jewellery
Van Cleef & Arpels are known for their iconic designs that centre on a rich history and symbolism. Their jewellery is described as works of art, with some of their most coveted jewellery collections including the Alhambra, the Perlée and the Zip.
Van Cleef & Arpels designed some iconic pieces of jewellery, such as the crown of Queen Nazli of Egypt in 1939, the crown of Empress Farah Pahlavi of Iran in 1967, and the Zip necklace that can be worn as a bracelet.
One of the big draws of Van Cleef jewellery is the exquisite use of precious materials in their jewellery. This includes pearls, diamonds and other high-quality gemstones. As a result, many of the Van Cleef and Arpels jewellery and watches retain a high value thanks to the materials they use as well as the vintage designs that are hard to find.
If you have old, neglected or unloved Van Cleef jewellery, it is likely that you can receive a significant payment, and it can be well worth selling if it’s something you no longer wear, want or is taking up space in your jewellery box.

What you can expect when you sell Vintage Jewellery :
If you are looking to sell a vintage or antique piece, perhaps a family heirloom or an item that has been inherited, our expert team will examine the item and thoroughly research the piece to find out everything about it. This will include its full history, who made it, and when it was made.
The primary focus in our antique jewellery purchasing will be to examine the quality of metal that has been used. So, for example, whether it is Gold, Platinum or Silver as well as what pureness it is which is defined and measured by its carat. The measurement of carat when selling antique or vintage jewellery is one of the key components in defining an item’s potential worth. Many customers do not know what the carat of their jewellery is, This if often the case for gold rings and necklaces, but our team are able to assist you and find out everything about the item.
We will also inspect any gemstones that have been used in the piece and look at their individual quality. Where we are able to make an offer to buy jewellery we will make a payment to you on the same day. We are happy to have a look at all customers’ antique jewellery items with no obligation to sell.
