Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across Pandora
- Retired and discontinued charms, which cannot be bought new and are the part of the market with real scarcity
- Limited-edition and event-exclusive pieces, which were produced in known quantities and are tracked by collectors
- Hallmarked sterling silver and gold pieces, which carry a material value beneath the brand value
- Charms with their original pouch or box, which collectors prefer
What pulls Pandora resale value down
- Tarnished silver, which is normal and cleanable with a proper silver cloth, so worth doing before photographing
- Worn or faded enamel on decorated charms, which cannot be restored
- Loose or damaged clips and stoppers, which stop charms staying where they are placed
- Unmarked pieces with no hallmark, which cannot be confirmed as sterling and are discounted heavily
Identifying and dating yours
- Every genuine piece carries a hallmark — photograph it close up, since it is the first thing a buyer checks
- Name each charm individually rather than selling a bracelet as a job lot, because buyers search for specific retired designs
- Photograph charms laid out separately on a plain background, which is how this market expects to see them
What lifts any earrings, whatever the label
Earrings are small, easy to post and heavily supplied, so precious metal and recognised makers carry most of the value.
- Precious metal with hallmarks where present
- Matched pairs with both backs included
- Recognised designers and hallmarked studs
- Certified stones on significant pieces
And what pulls one down
- Missing backs, which are cheap but noticed
- Odd earrings with no pair
- Plated pieces with wear to the base metal
- Bent posts and damaged hooks
Working out what yours is worth
- Check both earrings match exactly
- Confirm both backs are present
- Look for hallmarks on the post or hook
What to state in the listing
- Metal, with any hallmark photographed
- Fitting type, and whether backs are included
- Dimensions — hoop diameter or total drop length
- Any stone, and whether both earrings are identical
Metal, style and fitting: “Sterling Silver Hoop Earrings, 20mm, 925 Hallmarked”. Diameter or drop length is the search on hoops and drops, and the fitting type — stud, hook, hoop, clip-on — matters because not everyone has pierced ears.
Preparing and photographing it
- Check the posts and backs for a hallmark or metal marking, and note whether the backs are included.
- Clean gently and check any stone setting is secure.
- Confirm both earrings match exactly — odd earrings sold as a pair is a real and avoidable complaint.
- Both earrings together, front on, filling the frame
- The posts and backs, showing type and any marking
- Any hallmark, magnified
- The stones or detail close up, plus any scratch, tarnish or missing back
When it sells best, and handing it over
Lifts sharply before Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day. Hallmarked silver and gold studs sell within days.
Cheapest jewellery to post. Use a small rigid box with the pair secured to card, and a tracked service — small parcels are exactly what goes astray.
What buyers ask
Are individual charms worth more than a full bracelet?
Frequently, yes. Retired charms are searched for by name and a bracelet sold as one lot usually realises less than the charms would separately.
How should I clean silver jewellery before selling?
With a proper silver polishing cloth, gently. Avoid dips and abrasives, which can damage enamel and soften the hallmark buyers need to see.
How much are Pandora earrings worth?
Roughly £9 to £92 depending on condition, against £8 to £80 for earrings generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
