Title: 70+ Year Old Turkish Gold Necklace, Multiple Interested Buyers. What's It Worth?
Post by: JSafen on August 14, 2016, 09:58:00 AM

Hello,

This is a 14 karat gold necklace of Ottoman/Turkish origins. It weighs 38 grams with the diamonds.

Thanks.

If it helps any, the current Gold Price Per Gram is $43.04.

So, if one knew how much of that 38 gram weight was gold, then a partial worth could be calculated?

But the worth of the diamonds are a different matter.

Sorry, this is one of those items that you would need a "hands on" appraisal. The quality and quantity of the diamonds can affect the pricing greatly!

Agree with KC !!  You can not rely on pics on a computer for quality jewelry !! Cut, color, clarity and karat size all come into play here along with the gold content !! None of which we can see !!  Take it to a reputable dealer that is experienced in antique and vintage jewelry !!
