Jewellery

Stroud Auctions are delighted o have a full time jewellery specialist in their head of department Alexandra Bowkett (DGA, FGA), who has grown the jewellery department into one of the largest and best in the UK. Our quarterly specialist jewellery sales now comprise around 1000 lots including costume jewellery, amber antique, contemporary and of course diamond items. Alexandra is always on hand to offer friendly, honest adviceto buyers and sellers alike and of course to spot the ‘gems’ missed by other valuers. A notable example of this is the purple sapphire brooch sold for over £16,000 after being dismissed by others as an amethyst worth less than £100.
