That bit about the watch is really sweet :C

Not the magpies stealing the fucking bolts.

Ope hello, do I hear a missing person case.

"I don't think parents have favourite children" John?

I like the way that Sherlock gets John to figure out clues.

Into the crawlspace with ye

Not John almost immeadiately getting the code right.

Maybe the gang idea was right

Their lying is fucking amazing

And John is off on his description again

I do not appreciate how much this valuer guy is rubbing his hands together.

Bernie (is that how it's spelt?) is very nervous

He seems very... off

"Sorry, pause" real

STORYTIME

"The Brits were in town" We all know that's never a good thing

Well would you look at that, they stole it. What a surprise.

Ah yes, the child of a diamond

Why are we comparing a diomonds to a testicle?

"We stole it off a 14 year old boy :3"

Official jewellery gifts to royals worth £80m are not in national collection

Palace refusing to explain why official state gifts worn by Princess of Wales and Camilla are not in the royal collection

David PeggFri 14 Apr 2023 07.29 BST

Buckingham Palace is refusing to explain why 11 pieces of jewellery potentially worth £80m that were official gifts to the royal family are not held in a trove of national heritage.

The jewels, which have been worn by Queen Elizabeth II; Camilla, the Queen Consort, and Catherine, Princess of Wales, are not contained in the royal collection, the custodian of culturally significant items held in trust for the nation.

The pieces include a set of aquamarine jewellery, four brooches and six necklaces, including an extraordinary Cartier necklace of emerald- and brilliant-cut diamonds worth at least £40m given to the late Queen by an Indian prince.

At least four of the items were presented by heads of state. The palace’s policy states that “as a general rule” gifts to the sovereign from another monarch or head of state “automatically” become part of the royal collection, a body that manages items held by the sovereign in trust for the nation.

The Royal Collection Trust, which manages the collection, confirmed that it does not have custody of the 11 jewels.

A Buckingham Palace spokesperson declined multiple invitations to explain the current ownership of the 11 pieces. They suggested the royals do not regard the jewellery as their private property and that the items, which were given to the late queen between 1947 and 1979, “may” in the future be added to the royal collection.

“Official gifts are not the personal property of the member of the royal family who receives them, but may be held by the sovereign in right of the crown or designated in due course as part of the royal collection,” the spokesperson said. They declined to explain why the items were not already in the royal collection.

The palace’s policy on official gifts was first formulated in 1995 and updated in 2003. The guidelines state that items received on state visits or in connection with the royal family’s official role are not their private property.

All of the pieces identified by the Guardian were given to the queen before the guidelines were established. There is nothing in the policy that addresses gifts received by the royal family or the monarch before the code was set up.

The potential value of the items is hard to determine. Were anyone else to sell them, they would collectively be worth at least £8m, according to expert valuers.

However, analysis of previous auctions of jewels that were owned or worn by royals suggest the link to the Windsors would add a premium that could easily increase their total value to well over £80m.

‘An exceptional jewel’

Among the gifts identified are pieces of jewellery given to the queen at her wedding in 1947 and at her coronation a few years later by state officials.

It is one of the late queen’s most elaborate diamond necklaces and one she wore regularly. It has also been worn by Catherine, now the Princess of Wales, including at a gala at the National Portrait Gallery in 2014.

Sara Abey, a gemologist and jewellery merchant who estimated the value of several items for the Guardian, said the necklace could be worth more than £4m before considering its association with the British royal family.

“Having a renowned maker, important history and notable provenance, the queen’s Nizam of Hyderabad necklace is an exceptional jewel,” she said.

However her estimate of its value did not take into account what is described as the royal premium, which can dramatically inflate the sale value of an item and could make this necklace worth at least £40m.

Another diamond necklace was given to the queen as a wedding present by distinguished individuals from the City of London.

This, like many of the 11 items identified by the Guardian, was worn regularly by the queen. Other members of the royal family have also been seen wearing some of the gifts.

A diamond necklace presented to the queen during a state visit to the United Kingdom in 1967 by King Faisal of Saudi Arabia was lent to Diana, Princess of Wales in 1983. The necklace was originally made by the American jeweller Harry Winston in 1952 and could be worth as much as £9m.

Twelve years later, during a reciprocal visit by the queen to Saudi Arabia, Faisal’s successor, King Khalid, gave her another of Winston’s diamond necklaces, now worth more than £8m.

A necklace of turquoises from the then president of Pakistan, Muhammad Ayub Khan, given on a state visit in 1966, and four brooches are among the other official gifts identified by the Guardian. These include the Flame Lily brooch, which was presented to Elizabeth on her 21st birthday by the children of Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), who were each asked to donate three pence to pay for it.

The diamond necklaces and brooches were included in a 2012 reference volume published by the Royal Collection Trust or exhibited in Diamonds: A Jubilee Celebration display.

The exhibition was described as including “an unprecedented display of a number of the queen’s personal jewels – those inherited by Her Majesty or acquired during her reign.”

Quick Guide

How we estimated the value of the royal jewellery

Valuing the royal family’s private jewellery collection is exceptionally difficult. A professional valuation would require each stone of each item to be inspected for occlusions or other imperfections that cannot be detected by the naked eye.

Even where an estimate can be made, there is then the ‘royal premium’: the association with the royal family, which could multiply the value many times over.

In 1989, Laurence Krashes, a senior assessor for the US jeweller Harry Winston, described the task as ‘like landing a plane in fog without a radar’. He assessed the family’s collection – excluding the royal premium – at £36m for the royal journalist Andrew Morton.

The Guardian has identified several items Krashes did not consider, such as the Cullinan IX ring and a diamond necklace given to the then Princess Elizabeth as a wedding gift in 1947. Sara Abey, a fellow of the Gemmological Association and jewellery merchant, provided the Guardian with estimates for the additional pieces.

Morton multiplied Krashes’ estimates tenfold to try to achieve a more realistic value. However an auction of the late Princess Margaret's jewellery in 2006 suggests this may have been a considerable underestimate. A Guardian analysis found items sold for an average of 18 times the auction house’s top-end estimate.

Since that 2006 auction, the value of royal jewellery has increased further. Fifty of Margaret’s items went on sale again in 2020, with one diamond ring having an asking price of £1.1m, almost 10 times the 2006 sale price of £142,000. This was already higher than the original auction valuation of £70,000

Opting for caution, the Guardian has used a multiplier of 10 to reflect a conservative estimate of the royal premium.

Assets are a valuable part of our life, for they are a great investment for our future and for our future generations as well. Some of the valuable assets which are transferred to the next generations are the jewellery, authentic handloom clothes, handbags, watches, artworks, antique pieces and so on. The value of these items keeps on increasing over time. Therefore, if you have any of these items with you, then you must take them to the professional valuers from time to time for the valuation process. For instance, if you have valuable jewellery pieces of gold, diamond or platinum, having valuable stones like diamonds, sapphires, rubies, emeralds and so on, then you can go for the jewellery valuation process which will let you know the exact value of the jewellery.

Ideas for Engagement Ring Valuations

When it comes to valuing an engagement ring, there are several factors to consider. Here are some ideas for conducting an engagement ring valuation:

Professional Appraisal: Seek the expertise of a professional jewellery appraiser. They can assess the quality, materials, craftsmanship, and market value of the ring. A professional appraisal provides an unbiased and accurate valuation report, which is useful for insurance purposes or determining its fair market value.

Certification and Documentation: If the engagement ring comes with a certification from a reputable gemological laboratory (such as GIA or AGS), the accompanying documentation can help establish the quality and characteristics of the diamond or gemstone. This documentation aids in determining the value of the ring.

Diamond Grading: Evaluate the diamond's 4Cs: carat weight, cut, color, and clarity. These factors significantly influence a diamond's value. Assessing the diamond's characteristics using industry standards will provide insights into its quality and value.

Metal and Setting: Consider the type and quality of the metal used in the ring, such as gold (14k, 18k) or platinum. The craftsmanship of the setting and any additional details or embellishments can also contribute to the overall value.

Market Research: Conduct market research to determine the current market value of similar engagement rings. Explore prices from reputable jewelers, online marketplaces, and auction houses to get a sense of the range in which comparable rings are sold.

Condition and Maintenance: The overall condition of the engagement ring affects its value. Rings that are well-maintained and in excellent condition typically have higher values compared to those with visible signs of wear or damage.

Unique or Antique Factors: If the engagement ring has unique or antique characteristics, such as a rare design, historical significance, or vintage elements, these factors can contribute to its value. Consider consulting with experts or collectors specializing in antique jewellery valuers Melbourne to determine its worth.

Sentimental Value: Although sentimental value cannot be measured in monetary terms, it's worth acknowledging. The emotional significance attached to the ring, such as its sentimental history or personal story, can add an extra layer of value to the ring.

Remember, engagement ring valuations should be conducted by professionals in the jewellery industry to ensure accurate and reliable results. Their expertise will help provide an informed and comprehensive valuation for insurance purposes, resale, or personal knowledge.

The famous French Art Nouveau artist René Lalique (1860-1945) before dedicating his artistic life to glasswork, had a prolific and intense period of fine jewellery making up until c. 1912. Lalique followed certain aesthetic canons of this new artistic movement, namely the naturalistic motifs of fauna and flora and a rather astute inspiration from the feminine figure. Lalique's use of gem materials, that will be the topic of my presentation at the Jewellery Valuers Association Conference in Loughborough, UK (9-11 September) is unique, having been a master of enamelling, superlative craftsman with ivory and horn, and a wide variety of coloured gemstones including sapphire, precious opal, tourmaline, amethyst, adularia (moonstone) and natural pearls, just to name a few, and experimented in then-new manufactured plastics. As a Portuguese, I guess I am allowed to be biased here and say that the best collection of Lalique jewellery in public display is at the Museu Calouste Gulbenkian, in Lisboa, being an expression of the friendship and intellectual respect between the French artist and the Armenian-origin art collector Calouste Sarkis Gulbenkian (1869-1955).

Costume jewelry is composed of cheaper ornaments with base metals such as copper, brass or aluminum

The apparel industry provides a template for the Costume Jewelry industry. In addition to focusing on innovation, it's also vital to adapt to fast-fashion trends. To stay competitive, innovative players in the jewelry industry will mimic fast-fashion apparel companies. They'll need to be flexible in their approach to product development and reactive to consumer demands. And, they'll need to work with partners to keep up with consumer preferences and fashion trends. For instance, in February 2021, Featonby's Auctioneers & Valuers, an auction house in the U.K., conducted an auction of U.S. costume jewelry products including a 34-carat diamond worth US$ 2.7 million.

The growing popularity of online retail has made it a convenient and affordable option for women to shop for jewelry from anywhere. In today's corporate environment, personal appearance is crucial. Hence, it is necessary for women to look good, feel good, and look fashionable. Traditionally, women were confined to the home and only had time to dress up. Working women have a higher level of disposable income and are often self-employed. Their responsibilities often take up most of their time, so it is difficult for them to visit boutiques regularly.

While the U.S. costume jewelry has evolved into an industry, fine jewelry remains the most popular type of jewelry. Although the latter is primarily used for fashion purposes, fine jewelry is often bought as an investment and is highly collectible. For this reason, it is becoming more popular among consumers. The U.S. costume jewelry industry has experienced unprecedented growth in the past two years. In the U.S., there are many reasons for this growth. A fast-paced fashion culture means that fashion trends change quickly and are often unavoidable. It is important to stay flexible and respond to changing trends and keep up with the latest trends.
