Selling Diamond Jewelry in Towson, MD
Parting with diamond jewelry is rarely a simple decision. Whether it’s an engagement ring from a chapter that’s closed, an inherited piece you’ll never wear, or diamonds you’d simply rather convert to cash — you deserve a process that’s honest, unhurried, and transparent
Why Sell Your Diamond Jewelry With Us?
At Mayflower Estate Buyers, our buying team brings decades of combined experience evaluating diamond jewelry. We’ll walk you through exactly how we assess your piece, what drives its value, and what we can offer.
Our Buying Process
We operate out of our Towson office, and all purchases are conducted in person. This isn’t just a Maryland legal requirement, it’s how we prefer to work. Sitting across from you means we can walk through our assessment together, answer your questions in real time, and make sure you feel informed at every step.
Step 1: Bring Your Piece In
No shipping, no photos, no online estimates. Maryland law requires all purchases to take place in person, which means you get a real conversation and evaluation.
Step 2: We Evaluate It Together
Our buyer examines your diamond jewelry while explaining what they’re looking at: stone quality, cut, setting, condition, and current market demand. Nothing happens behind closed doors.
Step 3: You Receive a Clear Offer
We make you an offer based on what your piece is actually worth in today’s market. You’re never under pressure to accept on the spot.

Engagement Rings
Round, princess, emerald, oval, cushion, pear, marquise. We buy engagement rings in all diamond shapes and styles, including modern settings and vintage designs.
Antique and Vintage Diamond Jewelry

Diamond Earrings
Studs, hoops, drops, and cluster earrings. We buy diamond earrings in all sizes, shapes, and settings, whether contemporary or vintage.
Diamond Necklaces and Pendants
Solitaire necklaces, tennis necklaces, and pendant pieces. Single diamonds or multi-stone designs. We evaluate each on its own merits.
Diamond Bracelets
Tennis bracelets, bangles, and cuffs. High-quality diamond bracelets are consistently in demand, and we price accordingly.

Whether vintage or contemporary, we purchase diamond brooches and pins in a range of styles.
Diamond Wedding Bands
We purchase wedding bands that feature diamonds, whether they are a part of a set or standalone.
Prefer to Wait for the Right Buyer? Consider Consignment.
If our offer doesn’t meet your expectations, consignment may be the right path. We work with a network of collectors and buyers who specifically seek out quality diamond jewelry, particularly antique cuts and estate pieces that have a dedicated audience.
Consignment takes longer than an outright sale, but it can achieve a higher return for the right piece. We’ll tell you honestly whether your piece is a good candidate.

Common Questions About Selling Diamond Jewelry
Where can I sell my diamond jewelry?
We’re based in Towson, MD, just outside Baltimore. Maryland law requires all jewelry purchases to take place in person, so all transactions happen at our office.
How do you determine the value of my diamond jewelry?
We evaluate based on the 4Cs (cut, color, clarity, and carat weight), craftsmanship, condition, and current market demand. For antique diamonds — old mine cuts, old European cuts, rose cuts, French cuts — we also factor in rarity and what collectors are actively paying right now.
Will I get the appraised value when selling my diamond jewelry?
Most likely not, and that’s not a reflection of your piece. An insurance or retail appraisal reflects replacement value, what it would cost to buy that item new from a retailer today. Our offer reflects fair market value, which is what a willing buyer pays a willing seller in the current market. These two numbers are almost always different, and we’ll explain that clearly when you come in.
Do you buy antique diamond jewelry?
Yes! Antique cuts are actually a specialty of ours. Old mine cuts, old European cuts, French cuts, and rose cuts each have dedicated collector audiences, and we stay current on what that market is doing.
What types of diamond jewelry do you purchase?
Engagement rings, antique and vintage pieces, earrings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets, wedding bands, and brooches. If it features diamonds, bring it in.
How long does the selling process take?
We assess your piece during your visit and make an offer the same day. If you accept, payment is immediate.
