At Dawsons Auctioneers, we specialise in achieving exceptional results for jewellery by leading makers such as Cartier, Tiffany & Co., Bulgari, and Van Cleef & Arpels.
Our gemmology-qualified specialists provide free, confidential valuations and market your jewellery to a global audience of collectors, dealers, and private buyers. Whether you are selling a single piece or an important collection, we ensure your jewellery is presented to achieve the best possible price at auction.
Designer jewellery often commands strong prices at auction due to brand recognition, craftsmanship, and demand among collectors. Pieces by renowned houses such as Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Bulgari are particularly sought after, especially when accompanied by original boxes, certificates, or signed mounts.
Unlike selling directly to a jeweller or dealer, auction creates a competitive environment where multiple buyers can bid, often driving prices higher. At Dawsons, each piece is professionally photographed, expertly catalogued, and promoted across multiple channels to reach the right audience worldwide.
We regularly handle jewellery by some of the world’s most recognised designers. Explore a selection of brands below, or request a free valuation to discover how much your jewellery could achieve at auction.
