Established in 1934, Reliable Gold has a long tradition of offering magnificent and unique fine jewelry to a discerning clientele with a wide variety of styles - whether it be classic, antique, vintage or contemporary. We also handle your jewelry repair, custom design and appraisal needs.

For 80 years and four generations, our family has upheld the tradition of offering lovely antique and estate jewelry to an appreciative clientele.

Beginning our business back in 1934 as Reliable Gold Buyers in downtown Providence, we parlayed that expertise to become Reliable Gold Ltd., having decided that some of the pieces were far too beautiful to melt down. In 1958, we moved to our present storefront on the historic East Side of Providence in Wayland Square near Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design (RISD).

We have since added new, contemporary designs to our collection of estate and antique jewelry, broadening not only our horizons, but also our base of savvy customers. We strive to have something unique and wonderful for a wide range of styles and budgets, but we are always driven by the same high standards of taste, quality and value. Personalized service and knowledgeable sales staff are also prominent hallmarks of the Reliable Gold experience.

Services

Repairs
We promptly and carefully handle jewelry repairs, silver hollowware repairs and engraving through our trusted jewelers and craftsmen.

Gold & Jewelry Buyers
We well appreciate that selling your jewelry can be an emotionally difficult process as well as an overwhelming and disconcerting prospect for someone without jewelry industry experience. Rest assured that Reliable Gold will handle the process with the utmost compassion and honesty. We will evaluate your items and, if possible, offer to buy them outright, consign them for a period or buy them for scrap. While we cannot promise to buy everything presented to us, we absolutely promise to earn your trust by being fair and scrupulous.

Reliable Gold helps its customers to design spectacular jewelry creations. We can design pieces to your own unique specifications from scratch as well as repurpose your old, lesser-used jewelry to create your ideal piece.
