If you have been searching for where to sell David Yurman near me, the real question is whether the buyer will pay for the name. Most David Yurman is sterling silver with gold accents, so a scrap buyer who only weighs metal will pay a fraction of what the piece is worth. We price it as designer jewelry.
Genuine David Yurman carries a brand signature next to its metal marks. Look inside cuffs and ring shanks, near bracelet end caps, and on necklace clasps and earring backs. Metal marks follow the FTC Guides for the Jewelry Industry, which set the purity a stamp like 925 or 750 must meet.
| Mark | Meaning | Where you usually see it |
|---|---|---|
| D.Y. or © D.Y. | David Yurman signature | Next to the metal marks on most pieces |
| 925 | Sterling silver, 92.5% | Cable Classic, Albion, men's sterling pieces |
| 585 | 14K gold, 58.5% | Gold accents and end caps on two tone pieces |
| 750 | 18K gold, 75% | Solid gold collections and gold accents |
| 925 585 or 925 750 | Two tone: sterling with gold | Classic Cable cuffs and bangles |
| PT or PLAT | Platinum | Some engagement rings and bands |
The Cable bracelet is the heart of the brand, and Cable Classic cuffs in common sizes resell steadily. Albion and Châtelaine pieces with bright colored stones, Petite X stacks, and anything in solid 18K gold or pavé diamonds tend to bring the strongest offers.
Engagement rings are priced with the center diamond, so bring any grading report. Selling other fine jewelry at the same time? We can price it in one visit (see our fine jewelry buyer in Houston page). Houston Cash For Gold is an independent buyer and is not affiliated with David Yurman.

Many David Yurman pieces are finished with intentionally darkened, oxidized silver in the recesses of the cable. Harsh polishing or silver dips strip that finish and can loosen stones, so bring used pieces as they are. A soft dry cloth is plenty.
David Yurman is also one of the most copied designer brands. Fakes often come with convincing boxes and pouches, so packaging alone proves nothing. What gives them away is the jewelry itself: blurry or misplaced stamps, a loose or uneven twist, poorly set end caps, and the wrong weight. We check all of it and show you what we find.

It depends on the collection, the metal, the stones, and the condition. Sterling pieces with gold accents sell mainly on brand demand, since their metal value is modest. Solid 18K gold, pave diamond, and larger gemstone pieces carry more value on metal and stones as well. Popular designs like the Cable Classic and Albion resell well in good condition. Bring it in for a free, piece by piece quote.
No. Packaging and receipts are welcome and can help on higher value pieces, but they are not required, and they do not prove a piece is real on their own. We authenticate the jewelry itself: signature, metal marks, construction, weight, and stone setting.
We check for a clean D.Y. or David Yurman signature alongside the correct metal marks, such as 925 for sterling and 585 or 750 for 14K or 18K gold. Then we look at construction: the twist and finish of the cable, how end caps and stones are set, the clasp, and whether the weight matches the design. Counterfeits usually miss on several of these at once.
Yes. The Cable bracelet, introduced in 1983, is the brand's signature piece and the one we see most. We buy Cable Classic cuffs and bangles in sterling, two tone, and 18K gold, with or without gemstone or diamond end caps, in any size.
Yes. Used David Yurman jewelry with normal wear, scratches, or a stretched cuff is fine, and broken pieces still hold their metal and stone value. Damage can lower the resale side of the offer, but we will always explain how it affects the number.
Yes. We buy David Yurman engagement rings and wedding bands, priced with the center diamond and any grading report, and men's pieces from collections like Chevron, Streamline, and Armory, including chains, rings, and bracelets.
Bring a valid government issued photo ID, which Texas law requires for every sale, plus the jewelry and any box, pouch, receipt, or diamond report you have. Keep sets and pairs together. For tips on choosing a buyer, read 5 Brilliant Questions to Ask a Gold Buyer Before Selling.
