With over 30 years of experience and more than 150 five-star reviews from clients across Sussex, I provide professional valuations for gold jewellery, coins, bullion, fine antiques, medals and militaria.
Turners Hill is a well-established Mid Sussex village surrounded by rural communities between Crawley, East Grinstead and Haywards Heath. Whether you have inherited jewellery, are sorting through a family collection or simply want to know what your gold or antiques are worth, I provide honest, no-obligation valuations throughout Turners Hill and the surrounding area.
Rather than travelling with valuable jewellery, medals or collections, I offer a convenient, free Home Valuation Service across Turners Hill and neighbouring villages. You are also very welcome to arrange a private appointment at my Haywards Heath office.
Whether you have one item or an entire collection, I will carefully assess everything in front of you, explain what you have and provide a clear offer without pressure to sell.
Examples of Recent Purchases Across Sussex
The pictures below show items I have purchased during home visits across Sussex or from clients who have visited my Haywards Heath office. They demonstrate the wide range of jewellery, silver, collectables and antiques I regularly value and buy.
Recent Purchase of Gold

This selection of fine gold chains demonstrates the various styles and purities commonly encountered during private appointments. Whether dealing with fine layering chains or heavier gold necklaces, every piece is carefully assessed by weight and carat purity using professional, nondestructive testing equipment, ensuring you receive an immediate, fair valuation based on current market rates
Recent Purchase of Gold, Diamond & Jade Jewellery

Jade has held a revered place in fine jewellery for centuries, prized for its unique translucency, rich green coloration, and deep cultural symbolism representing purity, grace, and protection. This exceptional suite features a masterfully carved jade pendant alongside matching jade earrings and a diamond-accented jade ring set in precious gold. Valuing fine jade requires specialist knowledge of its texture, structure, translucency, and natural treatment status, making expert appraisal essential for capturing its true worth.
18ct Gold & Diamond Ring

Set in high-purity 18ct gold, this stunning multi-stone diamond cluster ring sparkles brilliantly in a traditional floral arrangement. Estate diamond jewellery of this calibre is evaluated by examining stone cut, color, clarity, and carat weight alongside precious metal content, ensuring a comprehensive and top-market valuation.
Recent Purchase of Medals

Military medals, gallantry awards, and framed commemorative rolls carry profound historical and sentimental value. This poignant World War II grouping dedicated to Trooper W.E. Turrell of the Royal Horse Guards preserves a powerful personal history of service and sacrifice. Militaria and campaign medals are evaluated based on their official issue status, accompanying documentation, historical context, and collector demand.

-
Use professional, non-destructive testing methods where appropriate.
-
Consider precious metal value, condition and collector interest.

Arrange immediate payment by bank transfer if you choose to sell.
There is never any pressure to accept an offer.

There is no need to clean, organise or identify your items before the appointment. I am happy to sort through mixed collections and explain which pieces may have value.
Understanding Gold Prices and Item Values
Gold jewellery is usually valued initially according to its weight, purity and the current precious-metal market.
Common gold purities include:
-
9ct
-
14ct
-
18ct

Your items are weighed using calibrated professional scales and tested where necessary to confirm their purity.
However, some items may be worth more than their basic metal content. I also consider:
-
Gemstone quality
-
Diamond cut, colour, clarity and carat weight
-
Age and rarity
-
Maker or brand
-
Craftsmanship
-
Condition
-
Historical importance
-
Collector demand
This is particularly important for antique jewellery, fine jade, diamond pieces, military medals and unusual collectables.
