Aloha Estate Jewelry About Us

Me Ke Aloha Pumehana (With Warm Aloha)

Aloha Estate Jewelry is a small family-owned and operated business. We are located and hold a jewelry business license in beautiful Honolulu, Hawai'i on the island of O'ahu. We have been in the estate, vintage, and antique jewelry business for over 30 years. We specialize in Estate, Vintage, and Antique Jewelry of all types.

To ensure the quality of the items being sold we scrupulously test each item for the advertised precious metals purity using industry-standard Gold, Silver, and Platinum testing processes. Each gemstone is individually examined for authenticity. We additionally test each Diamond electronically using the Presidium Multi-Tester III (PMUT-III) to ensure that it is natural and earth-mined, and NOT a synthetic diamond such as Cubic Zirconia or Moissanite. Colored stones (Rubies, Emeralds, Tourmaline, Topaz, etc.) are authenticated within the electronic testing ranges of Presidium's Colored Stone Gem Tester (PGT) and the Presidium Colored Stone Gem Indicator (PGI). The Presidium Refractive Index Meter (PRIM II) is also used to determine the Refractive Index (RI) of gemstones to further evaluate and authenticate gemstone type.

If there are ever any questions about any item we have advertised please contact us using the Form on our Contact Page.

We source our jewelry items from island estates, auction houses, estate liquidators, and other sources. We keep costs and overhead, and subsequently our pricing, low:

By negotiating fair but competitive prices with sellers, usually for multiple items which further discounts costs
By purchasing entire jewelry lots at auctions and liquidations
By maintaining a robust but selective and limited inventory which we hand-pick
By having no brick-and-mortar store and associated overhead costs

These practices allow us to sell incredibly beautiful and one-of-a-kind pieces of estate, vintage, and antique jewelry at well below their retail, fair-market, value. We unequivocally guarantee our items to be as-advertised for gemstone and gold-purity and we back that guarantee with a no-questions-asked 14-day return policy.
