Toms River's family jeweler since 1964 — careful, discreet, and we know what's actually in the box.
Estate jewelry usually comes with a story. A piece you inherited from a grandmother, a collection a parent left behind, a ring from a marriage that ended, jewelry from a loved one who's passed. These pieces aren't just metal and stones — they carry memories.
We get that. For 62 years, Corinne Jewelers has been the place Ocean County families come to when it's time to make decisions about jewelry that's been in their lives for decades.
Why families trust us with estates
Most estate buyers offer melt value plus a small adjustment. The difference is judgment. Our buying specialist Joy Burlew and our team have spent careers sorting estate pieces. We pay the right number for each individual piece, not a wholesale average.

- Vintage and antique — Victorian, Edwardian, Art Deco, Retro, mid-century modern
- Fine watches — Rolex, Patek Philippe, Omega, Cartier, vintage Swiss
- Estate diamonds — older cuts and modern stones

- Colored gemstones — sapphires, rubies, emeralds, opals
- Sterling silver — flatware, hollowware, designer pieces
