Is My Fake Jewelry Worth Anything?


Fake Jewelry (Costume Jewelry) is the new style.  Extra large stones and gaudy pieces are IN!  “Does that make my fake jewelry worth anything?”  Your fake jewelry is worth as much as it costs to replace
it.  If the item is irreplaceable then it is worth a lot to you.  That means it’s worth something but unfortunately not much.

Is it worth what precious metal jewelry is?  No it is not.  Jewelry in the past was worn as a status symbol.  Therefore it was made of rare metals.  No longer is status a symbol to display for many reasons.  Jewelry now has become an accent to ones outfit in lieu of a status symbol and costume jewelry has a value in the collectable market and much more, just not to a secondary metals recycler.  Sometimes, gold jewelry is not the gold solution, costume jewelry is!

Poll:  Is gold a status symbol that has lost its luster?  It seems people now frown on wealth...

  1. Fake jewelry seems like the future! It is so funny the change in thinking. If gold continues to plummet like it has we may have another surge of new gold jewelry trends. Good luck in your business.
