Singapore Gold Market · Independent Manual Assessment
Alhambra, Perlée and Frivole require more detail than a recognisable motif. For Alhambra, distinguish Vintage, Sweet or Magic where known. Singapore Gold Market assesses the submitted item manually; these categories do not promise acceptance or imply a relationship with Van Cleef & Arpels.
Identify the item
Record the full reference, item type, motif count and motif size where known. A pendant, a multi-motif bracelet and a long necklace should not be described interchangeably. For earrings, identify whether both matching pieces and their backs are present.
Describe visible metal markings and each documented material, including stone, enamel or all-metal elements. Do not identify a stone from its colour alone. Give the current chain or bracelet length with units, distinguishing a measured length from the original specification.
Assessment considerations
Show both sides of each motif, its edges, connecting links and closure. Describe chips, scratches, uneven wear, loose settings or missing elements. For a pair, photograph the pieces together and individually so differences and completeness can be assessed.
Disclose chain shortening or extensions, replaced motifs or stones, clasp work and polishing. Include retained links or repair records if available. Describe what changed without assuming the item remains identical to an unaltered catalogue reference.
Whole-piece review weighs verified identity, configuration, completeness, condition and available resale evidence. Boxes and documents support the inquiry but do not establish authenticity by themselves. Any appropriate metal-content review requires confirmed purity and net metal weight, excluding non-metal components.
Whole-piece branded jewellery assessment differs from metal-content assessment for ordinary pieces. Brand, craftsmanship, stones and original retail price are distinct from gold content. Stone handling, the assessment route and any fees require individual agreement.
From details to an offer
Provide contact and item details, including what you know. Unknown information can wait.
Review suitability, available information and the assessment arrangements for the individual item.
Agree timing, location and applicable checks, then review the physical item and supporting details.
If proceeding, set out quote conditions, any fees, validity and payment arrangements.
Proceed after the seller accepts the agreed arrangements. An inquiry does not complete a sale.
Provide only what you know; unknown details can be left blank. The brand is preselected and editable. It categorises the inquiry and does not establish authenticity.
Initial inquiries do not collect identity or bank documents, and the form has no photo upload. A successful save records the inquiry; it does not confirm an appointment, quote or sale.
You may choose to open WhatsApp and send reviewed photos or further details. Physical checks, a written quote, any fees and settlement arrangements need separate manual confirmation.
No. Include the subcollection, item type, material configuration and reference if known. Similar motifs do not establish the same size, materials or complete configuration.
Leave it unknown and share clear photographs and any existing records. Do not choose a gemstone name from colour or appearance merely to complete the form.
Give the current length and alteration history, or list the missing earring or back. Retained parts and documents help; suitability is decided manually for the submitted configuration.
These public references can help explain models or related information. They do not endorse our buyback service or establish the authenticity of your item.
