Investment Jewellery: Which Gemstones & Brands Hold Their Value Best?

Ask any collector why they buy jewellery and you’ll rarely hear the word ‘investment’ first. They’ll talk about colour, about how a stone makes them feel or the memory of who gave it to them. Yet the truth is, some gemstones and jewels possess a certain wonder that transcends sentiment. These are the treasures sought by investors, whose rarity, beauty and heritage mean they remain just as coveted decades, even centuries, later.

Which gemstones and which Houses have a proven history of holding their value best? The answer lies in a delicate balance of heritage, scarcity and desire. Certain stones have captivated collectors for generations, while a handful of jewellery Maisons continue to act as guardians of value, their creations carrying a weight of artistry and trust that ensures they remain valued across generations.
