Estate Collection
Wm. Ritzi & Co. has broad expertise in the Estate and Antique market. Before Antique Malls were ever in existence, we were handling unique and important estate and antique jewelry, silver and watches. We have always enjoyed the interesting jewelry from different design periods and carry a select grouping of quality pieces. In jewelry, the item must be over 100 years old to qualify as an antique. So, most pieces fall in the estate category, which is anything that is pre-owned, but not necessary very old. Of course, being antique or pre-owned doesn't guarantee that a piece is of good quality or a good value. We are mindful to select items that have been carefully worn and represent a true value in price and continued enjoyment. We also work with banks, attorneys and estates to place important jewelry in the right market for resale and have deep industry connections, enabling us to acquire a particular piece for you that is not readily available in our local market.
