[QUOTE="KSW, post: 4322026, member: 8708"]Update on this bracelet in case anyone is interested- it’s been with the jeweller since I posted as they send items away to get quotes for repair. They are in no doubt it is 9K and diamond. I went in today and was quoted £130 to repair the clasp with two side loops and the bobbles for them to go over. I asked him if he thought it was worth it and he said the value is ‘into 4 figures’ but not more specific as it was still with the repairer and we were working off his memory and photos. So, do you thinks repairing it will enhance its value?. Or would it just get scrapped anyway?. Is it worth getting a proper appraisal? Last one I had done on a ring was £50 but that was probably 15 years ago. Where would you sell this? eBay? Auction? but they take soooo much. Hmm. More questions than answers. Nice conundrum to have for £2 outlay :-)[/QUOTE]
