What Is Your Silver Worth?
Send photos of your silver and any hallmarks for a free, no-obligation valuation. We reply within one working day.
Ipswich is one of England's oldest towns, a Saxon port that grew prosperous on the wool and shipping trades, and its long history means plenty of fine silver has been handed down through Suffolk families. We're conveniently placed too: our Essex valuation showroom in Braintree are an easy drive from Ipswich. If you've inherited a tea service, a canteen of cutlery, salvers or antique silver of any kind, Mozeris Fine Antiques will value and buy it — free insured courier from any Ipswich address, or collection via our nearby showroom.
You don't need to travel. We're a family-run firm of antique and precious-metal specialists, and most of our Suffolk sellers handle the whole sale from home — we collect by fully-insured, tracked courier at no cost, verify your silver at our office, and pay you the same day. For higher-value collections we also offer by-appointment valuations.
We Buy Silver From Ipswich and Across the UK
We buy all genuine silver: sterling and Britannia standard, antique and modern, English and continental. That includes tea and coffee services, trays and salvers, candlesticks and candelabra, canteens of cutlery and individual flatware, christening mugs and presentation pieces, sauce boats, entrée dishes, cigarette and vesta cases, photograph frames, vinaigrettes and small collectables, plus silver coins and scrap. Every piece is judged on its hallmarks, weight, maker and condition — fine maker silver is worth far more than melt value, so never sell good silver as scrap without a specialist opinion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Selling silver in Ipswich — common questions.
How do I sell silver in Ipswich?
Send us photos for an indicative price, then we book a free, fully-insured courier from your Ipswich address — or arrange an appointment at our Essex showroom nearby.
How quickly will I be paid?
By same-day bank transfer once your silver is verified at our office and you accept our offer. No fees deducted.
How much is my silver worth?
It depends on weight, standard (sterling/Britannia), maker, age and condition. Fine maker pieces far exceed melt value. Send photos for a free, accurate valuation.
Is the courier really free?
Yes — fully insured, tracked collection at no cost to you, and free return if you decline our final offer.
Should I sell to a local "we buy gold" shop instead?
Those shops often pay melt only. As antique specialists we recognise maker and period, so fine pieces are usually worth considerably more to us.
Do you buy continental and unhallmarked silver?
Yes — continental, Britannia, and older or worn pieces. Send photos of any marks and we'll identify and value it.
