A piece of expensive jewelry is not just a luxury fashion accessory but can also be looked upon as an investment. Investing in jewelry has been a tradition in most families of India for generations. However, in the present times, one might wonder if it's really worth investing in jewelry or is it only a misguided tradition? Let's find out.
What do the Experts Say?
Renowned jewelry experts and craftsmen believe that there are two sides to the happiness of buying Jewelry – one of the present and the other of the future. Investing in certain types of jewelry gives you the happiness of owning beautifully crafted and rare pieces of earrings, necklaces or rings, and in the future, these serve as a good investment. But from the investment point of view, it is important to know the type of jewelry you should put your money in and its resale value.
Let's say, for instance, Vintage jewelry pieces are not only the most sought after in terms of fashion but also the most valuable. The price of vintage jewelry pieces keeps on rising as they age. Vintage necklaces of the early 1900s are worth a fortune in today's time due to the constant rise in their value.
