    You have to sell it to some very well to do people and they only can pay you some thing fairly. You can contact some antic items dealer or give a small advertisement in the news papers and you will get some response.

    Don't consider high street jewellers, they're clueless. Some independent second-hand jewellery shops can be good, usually Jewish owned businesses (up our way anyway) and they are very knowledgeable and give a good fair price....

    I know there is one in Marlow. On the main shopping street. The shop frontage is Black and Gold, but I can't remember the name of the shop. I'll update this if I can remember.

    Research, Research, Research....Do not give into believing that it's scrap and do not give up hope that there's no one out there who will give you the worth of the necklace..

    You might try eBay. I've sold some antique camera equipment on there and done quite well.

    what kind of antics is your necklace up to? Is this why you want to get rid of it? Does it come alive at night and try to strangle you?
