Visit a Specialized Purchase Store Otakaraya to Sell Your Gemstones / Jewellery
Do you have unused gemstones or jewelry lying dormant? It's a waste to leave them unused just because of reasons like "old design" or "scratches." At "Otakaraya," we offer high-price purchases even for broken jewelry or old designs. We purchase not only diamonds but also color stones like sapphires, rubies, and emeralds. You can also bring in loose stones (gems only), and our professional appraisers will assess their quality and grade. Whether it's a ring that no longer fits, a necklace that's broken, or jewelry that has become dirty over time, we can still make an offer. We will provide an estimate after evaluating the items, so feel free to bring them in. At "Otakaraya," we have specialists in diamond and gemstone purchasing, including a GIA G.G. certified appraiser, so you can bring your items in with confidence. If you want to sell your gemstones or jewelry for the best price, please visit us by all means.
Points for Gemstone and Jewelry Purchase
Gemstones are a limited resource created by nature, and their prices are highly influenced not only by their size and grade but also by factors such as market supply and circulation. As a result, some dealers may try to offer low purchase prices in order to maximize their profits. However, at Otarakaya, we have established stable sales channels, enabling us to buy high and sell high. Even if you were unsatisfied with other dealers' appraisals, we are confident that we can offer you a price that meets your expectations.

A Message from Our Appraiser
Thank you very much for choosing OTAKARAYA for your gemstone appraisal and purchase service.
We are delighted that we were able to offer a price that met your expectations for an item you have treasured over the years.
Gemstones are more than simple accessories. They are unique treasures formed by the Earth over millions of years, each with its own beauty and rarity. Their value is determined by the internationally recognised standards known as the “4Cs”: Carat, Color, Clarity and Cut.
At OTAKARAYA, our team includes certified gemologists holding the G.G. (Graduate Gemologist) qualification from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). Drawing on their expertise and carefully monitoring current market conditions, we strive to provide fair and competitive appraisal prices for every gemstone.
Gemstones such as diamonds, rubies, sapphires and emeralds each have their own evaluation standards and internationally recognised gemological laboratories. Grading reports and certificates issued by these organisations serve as important proof of authenticity and can significantly influence a gemstone’s value.
We carefully examine every aspect of your gemstone, including its quality, rarity and condition, in order to provide an appraisal price you can feel confident about. Being able to deliver a satisfying result for our customers is always our greatest motivation.
We will continue working to improve our services while maintaining the trust our customers place in us. In addition to gemstones, we also appraise precious metals, luxury brand items and watches, so please feel free to visit OTAKARAYA whenever you are considering selling your valuables.
Our team remains committed to providing professional service and fair appraisal prices for every item entrusted to us. Thank you once again for choosing OTAKARAYA. We sincerely look forward to serving you again in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Gemstones / Jewellery Purchase
When is the best time to sell diamonds?
The best time to sell diamonds can vary. Sometimes, the right opportunity arises quickly, while at other times, holding onto them for a longer period can increase their value. It is difficult to pinpoint a universally ideal time. If you plan to keep your diamonds for a longer duration before selling, it is essential to store them properly. We recommend using appropriate storage methods and performing regular maintenance to preserve their condition.
Can I sell diamonds without a certificate?
Yes, you can. Our appraisers will evaluate the diamond 4Cs (Carat, Color, Clarity, and Cut) and provide you with a purchase price.
Does the design affect the purchase price?
For gemstone purchases, the grade of the diamond itself is crucial. Even with an older design, Otakaraya ensures a high-value purchase, so you can rest assured.
Does the shape of the diamond affect the purchase price?
Yes, the purchase price varies by shape. The "round brilliant cut" is the most highly valued cut for diamonds. The purchase price also changes depending on the diamond's grade, so feel free to take advantage of our free appraisal service.
Do specialty gemstone purchase shops offer higher prices?
At Otakaraya, we handle a wide range of items, including diamonds, gemstones, jewelry, gold, precious metals, branded items, and watches. This extensive sales network allows us to avoid holding excess inventory, enabling us to offer the highest possible prices for your items.
Can melee diamonds (pavé diamonds) be purchased?
Yes, they can be purchased. Jewelry adorned with melee diamonds (pavé diamonds) may receive a higher appraisal value. However, loose stones may not be eligible for purchase.
