Is estate jewelry real?
1 Answer

Whether estate jewelry is real varies. The term “estate jewelry” describes earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings, brooches and other pieces that become available for sale as a part of a person's estate after they die. Because people collect many kinds of jewelry, both fine jewelry — featuring precious metals and genuine gemstones — and costume jewelry — made of less expensive materials — can be part of an estate and therefore classified as estate jewelry.
