Argyle Pink Diamonds
Archer & Holland is one of very few places in Adelaide to stock rare Certified Argyle Pink Diamonds. These diamonds were sourced from the Argyle Diamond Mine in Western Australia. The mine, which was run by Rio Tinto closed in 2020, making Argyle diamonds an even more rare and desirable investment.
Since the first Argyle Pink Diamonds were revealed from the ancient beauty of their Western Australian birthplace, they have been valued for their rarity; coveted by many but owned by few.
Not only are they beautiful, but their high appreciation, small production supply, and increasing rarity makes them an incredibly valuable investment opportunity.
With a proud legacy of more than 100 years in Adelaide, Bill and Meredith from Archer & Holland have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to fine jewellery. Bill has over 50 years of jewellery handcrafting experience, while Meredith is a qualified diamond grader. They both have intimate knowledge of Argyle Pink Diamonds, whether through investing or hand making pieces incorporating the precious diamonds.
Appointments can be made with Bill or Meredith to talk about investing in Argyle Pink Diamonds. We also host special events which will be communicated in our newsletters and on our social media pages. You can sign up below to be kept up to date.
Valuations & Insurance
All valuations are done on the premises by Archer & Holland’s NCJV Registered Valuer (National Council of Jewellery Valuers) and Gemmologist (FGAA).
Jewellery is examined and assessed using gemmological equipment and procedures to provide a scientific analysis of precious and semi-precious gems. Our Valuer and Gemmologist have up-to-date knowledge and ongoing training in key areas of gemmological studies including:
- Gemstone grading
- Detection of synthetics
- Techniques used in jewellery manufacturing
- Detecting reproduced jewellery and genuine antique pieces
All valuation certificates are presented on a professional document including a full report and colour photograph of the item. The certificate will also state the purpose and reason of the valuation and the type of market on which it was based.
The most common type of valuation is a retail valuation which is often used for insurance purposes. Other types of valuation include, but are not limited to:
- quality assessments
- deceased estates
- second-hand sales
- forced sales
All ring valuations come with a free professional clean and security claw/setting check.
