Local Diamond Buyer in Northbrook, IL
As your local diamond buyer, we help you turn diamond jewelry into cash without the pressure of a big storefront. First, you share photos and details. Then, we meet privately in Northbrook (or nearby) and you choose whether to sell.
Buying since 2011
By-appointment privacy
North Shore + Chicago
Meet privately, then review
Next, we inspect your pieces in person. You’ll see how the offer connects to size, cut, color, clarity, and brand value.
Choose the payout that fits
Finally, you decide. If you accept, you get paid promptly. If you pass, you keep your jewelry—no hard feelings.
What we buy (and what sells best)
We buy diamond jewelry of many styles, and we price each piece based on current demand. That said, some items naturally bring stronger offers. For example, large round center stones with a GIA report usually perform well. However, designer pieces and antique platinum work can also command a premium, especially when the design stands out.
- Diamond engagement rings and wedding sets
- Loose diamonds (certified or not)
- Antique & vintage diamond jewelry (filigree, platinum, early 1900s)
- Diamond earrings, including studs and fine drops
- Diamond necklaces and pendants
- Diamond bracelets, including tennis styles
- Diamond watches and luxury timepieces
- All diamond jewelry, including designer collections
Tip: If you have paperwork (GIA, IGI, EGL, receipts, or appraisals), send a photo of it. Even when paperwork is imperfect, it helps us narrow the range faster.
Why sellers choose a by-appointment buyer
A retail jewelry store has a lot of overhead. Because of that, you often see lower offers and rushed appointments. In contrast, our model stays lean, so we can focus on your item and your outcome.
In addition, you control the pace. You can compare offers, ask direct questions, and decide when you feel ready. We keep the conversation clear, so you leave with confidence—whether you sell today or later.
When you want the most accurate offer
- Bring (or message) any grading report numbers.
- Share the carat weight if you know it, and include a top-down photo.
- Tell us if the piece is branded (Tiffany & Co., Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, and more).
Finally, if you’re outside Illinois, you can still sell safely. We can walk you through insured shipping, so you can receive an exact offer after inspection.
