  • A timeless classic that complements every skin type, a gold chain is a popular piece of statement jewellery for both men and women – and it has been since Ancient Babylonian times in around 1700 BC.

If you're hoping to add a gold chain to your collection as a treat for yourself or are on the lookout for an exquisite gift, you're in the right place.

    About our used gold chains

    Our collection of pre-loved jewellery includes second-hand men's gold chains as well as gold chains for women. We stock a wide range of styles including heavy gold chains, belcher chains and more, so you'll find what you're looking for in our range.

    The purity of gold used in our second-hand gold chains impacts its value, weight and look. The purest second-hand gold chain is 22ct, but you'll find second-hand necklaces and belcher chains made from 9ct and 18ct gold too.

    Pure gold is a soft metal so the higher the carat, the more delicate the chain is. This being said, gold chains with a high carat rating are easier to maintain, heavier and hypoallergenic. If you're looking for jewellery for everyday wear, our second-hand heavy belcher chains for sale in 9ct gold are ideal. For something that only comes out on special occasions, our second-hand 18ct gold chains are unbeatable.

    Whichever carat you choose, our gold chains have been meticulously analysed by our in-house experts to determine the carat and value of each one. If your gold chain comes with precious stones, our in-house gemmologists will identify them using the latest refractometers, polariscopes and spectroscopes before getting them graded by GIA-qualified professionals.

    Why buy a second-hand gold necklace?

    · Great value for money

    Gold jewellery can be expensive, especially when you buy it brand-new. When you choose to buy from us, you'll be able to get a solid gold chain for a fraction of the price. This means you can usually afford to buy a much higher carat for your money.

    · Unique pieces

    Each one of our second-hand gold chain necklaces has its own story. Adorning a previous owner and often showcasing craftsmanship from a bygone era, pre-loved jewellery is more than an accessory.

    Because our collection of second-hand jewellery can't be purchased elsewhere, it means that you'll be able to find a unique piece – whether you choose a modern-looking design or an intricate vintage design.

    · Eco-conscious choice

    Eco-friendly shoppers looking to reduce the demand for gold mining and its environmental ramifications might want to choose second-hand jewellery. By buying pre-loved, you can indulge in new jewellery for yourself and keep a clear conscience.
