Pawn loans against fine jewellery · City of London · Est. 2013

Borrow against your jewellery. Wear it again when you repay.

Trinity makes pawn loans against fine jewellery — signed pieces by Cartier, Tiffany and Van Cleef & Arpels, gemstone and diamond jewellery, and family heirlooms — from £500 with no maximum. Valued for far more than their metal, insured door to door, held securely in the City of London, and returned to you exactly as you left them when you repay.

No credit checks. Nothing on your credit file. Offer the same day.

What is your jewellery worth as a loan?

Tell us the maker if you know it, the stones and metal, and send a few photos. A specialist reviews the piece against the current market — valuing the craftsmanship and stones, not just the metal — and comes back with an indicative offer the same day, at no cost and with no obligation.

What we lend against

The jewellery we lend against

We lend against jewellery worth keeping — signed pieces, gemstone and diamond jewellery, fine gold, and heirlooms with a story. Boxes, papers and certificates help the valuation, but they’re not essential.

Signed & branded jewellery

Cartier, Tiffany & Co., Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari, Boodles and more — valued with the maker’s premium, not just the materials.

Gemstone & diamond jewellery

Rings, necklaces, earrings and suites set with diamonds, rubies, sapphires and emeralds.

Fine gold & heirloom pieces

High-carat and hand-worked gold jewellery, valued for its craftsmanship — not weighed as scrap.

Antique & period jewellery

Georgian, Victorian, Art Deco and mid-century pieces, valued on their own merit by specialists who know the period.

How much you can borrow

Valued for the piece, not just the metal

Your jewellery is valued by a specialist — the maker, the stones, the metal and the craftsmanship — against the current market. A signed piece or a fine gemstone is worth far more as jewellery than as scrap, and that’s how we value it. That means an accurate valuation and a competitive loan, at rates lower than the typical high-street pawnbroker. Loans start at £500, with no upper limit.

How it works

Four steps. Back on you at the end.

Step 01

Tell us about your piece

Send the maker, stones and a few photos. A specialist values it and sends an indicative offer the same day.

Step 02

Send it to us, insured

We arrange free, fully insured delivery, or you can bring it to our City of London office by appointment. It’s insured from the moment it leaves your hands.

Step 03

Accept the offer and get paid

Once we’ve examined the piece in person we confirm the valuation. Accept, and the money is with you within 24 hours.

Step 04

Repay, and it’s back with you

Loans run for six months and can be extended. Repay early and you pay less, with no penalty. Your jewellery is returned exactly as you left it.

How we value jewellery

Valued by specialists, for far more than the metal

Every piece is assessed by a specialist — the maker and any signature, the stones and their quality, the metal, and the craftsmanship and period — then valued against current market prices for comparable pieces. We don’t melt-weigh a Cartier ring or a Victorian brooch as if it were scrap. Our specialists come from the auction houses, the galleries and the trade.

Maker and signature valued

The brand premium counts, not just the materials.

Stones assessed separately

Diamonds on the 4Cs, coloured stones on quality.

Metal factored in, never the whole story

Gold and platinum content counted as one part of the value.

Nothing sight-unseen

You see the valuation before you commit to anything.

Why Trinity rather than the high street

A pawnbroker for jewellery you intend to keep.

Cash-for-jewellery and we-buy-any-jewellery services buy your piece — often by the gram, melting a signed or heirloom piece for its metal. We don’t. A pawn loan is a loan: you keep ownership, we keep it safe, and you take it back when you repay. That difference is the whole business.
