From Bellmore Avenue it is a straight drive east on Sunrise Highway to 4222 Sunrise Hwy. Walk-ins welcome, no appointment needed.
When a family jewelry box comes to you
Bellmore and North Bellmore sellers often arrive with jewelry passed down from a relative. Some of those pieces are worth their gold weight; others, like signed designer work or Art Deco filigree, can be worth much more, and a buyer who only weighs metal will miss it.
At Roma Jewelry the box is sorted with you, piece by piece, so you know what is collectible, what is scrap, and what you might want to keep.

How an estate is sorted with you
Pieces are laid out and grouped as you go: obvious gold, possible collectible items, silver, coins, and costume jewelry. Gold is tested and weighed in front of you. Anything that looks signed, antique or unusual is set aside and looked at as more than its metal.
You leave knowing what each group is, even if you choose not to sell anything that day.
Before you leave Bellmore
If several relatives share the estate, bring everyone's questions along, and photos of anything that cannot come. Keep old jewelry boxes and pouches with the pieces; a maker's box can sometimes help identify a signed item. Do not try to clean or repair anything first.
Keeping what matters
Many Bellmore families decide to keep one or two pieces for sentimental reasons and sell the rest. That is a perfectly normal outcome. The point of sorting together is that the choice is yours, made with full information about every item in the box.

Will antique pieces just be melted?
No. Age, design, maker and condition are considered piece by piece before any offer.
Do I have to sell everything at once?
No. Keep family pieces and sell only what you choose.
Is costume jewelry worth anything?
It has no precious-metal value, but it is not always obvious which is which, so bring it and anything unclear can be tested free.
Can several family members come together?
Yes. Everyone is welcome at the counter, and the sorting is done openly.
What if I am not sure what something is?
Bring it. Anything unclear can be tested free, and you will be told plainly what it is.

Yes. You decide piece by piece.
