Let’s be honest, most of us have jewellery sitting in a box that we haven’t worn in years. Maybe it’s a diamond ring from a past relationship, an engagement ring you’ve emotionally moved on from, or jewellery that just doesn’t feel like you anymore. Whatever the reason, it might be time to let it go.
At Hatton Jewels, we help people every day who are ready to sell a diamond ring, sell an engagement ring, or finally clear out jewellery they no longer love. It’s not just about the money, though that’s often a nice bonus; it’s about moving forward and making space for what’s next.
This summer, if you’re already decluttering other parts of your life, why not take a closer look at your jewellery box too?
Why It’s Worth Revisiting Your Jewellery Collection
Jewellery tends to hold emotion and memory. That’s part of what makes it special. But it also means many of us keep items long after we stop wearing them. Whether it’s a wedding ring you’ve moved on from, a necklace you never wear, or an heirloom that doesn’t match your style, your collection might be filled with hidden value.
Taking the time to go through your jewellery isn’t just about tidying up. It’s a chance to re-evaluate what pieces still reflect your life and style, and what could serve a better purpose elsewhere.
What Can You Let Go Of?
You don’t need a vault full of gemstones for it to be worth selling. Some of the most common items people choose to part with include:
-
Diamond rings, particularly those with certified stones
-
Engagement rings from past relationships or style changes
-
Wedding rings that are no longer worn
-
Vintage or estate jewellery
-
Gold, platinum or silver items
-
Broken or unmatched pieces with precious metal content
If you’re unsure whether something has value, a professional appraisal can offer clarity.
How to Sell Jewellery
For many, selling jewellery is not just about the item but about what it represents. That’s why the process should feel clear, fair, and respectful.
At Hatton Jewels, we offer a personal approach to selling jewellery. Whether you’re thinking about how to sell a diamond ring or are looking for advice on parting with an engagement or wedding ring, our expert team makes the process straightforward.
Here’s how it typically works:
-
Book a free valuation, either in-store or online

-
Get paid the same day if you choose to accept
There’s no pressure to sell, and each step is handled with care and transparency.
Letting Go with Purpose
Selling jewellery can mark a moment of closure or a shift in priorities. It might help fund something new, travel, a renovation, or even a new piece that suits you better today. For some, it’s simply about clearing space and releasing emotional weight.
Whatever your reason, the process doesn’t need to feel rushed or transactional. With the right support, it can be thoughtful and even empowering.
