Jewelry by Bulgari, Boucheron, Cartier, Tiffany and Van Cleef & Arpels increase in value and make them a fine investment, explains The New York Times in their recent article, “Rare Necklaces and Rings Are Items to Appreciate. Just Ask Investors“.
“Jewelry, of course, has an intrinsic value. It’s made of gems like diamonds, emeralds, rubies and sapphires and set in metals like platinum, gold and silver that are valuable in their own right…
But the pieces with the most investment potential have a level of craftsmanship in addition to scarcity that makes them stand out from the beautiful baubles that are produced year after year — and appreciate beyond the value of their metals and gems.”
