21ct gold explained
21ct gold is 87.5% pure gold (875 parts per thousand). It is a popular standard in Saudi Arabian, Egyptian, Indian and many African markets, often used for traditional wedding jewellery and decorative chains.
Because 21ct sits between the more familiar UK standards of 18ct and 22ct, valuations can be inconsistent at less experienced buyers. Our flagship team is trained to recognise common 21ct marks and the local stamps that accompany them.
Where items are unmarked or use regional symbols, electronic testing confirms the carat before we calculate the per-gram figure.
21ct expertise from a real UK shop
Inherited 21ct pieces often carry both financial and family value. We treat them with the same level of care as any other high-purity gold.
HighStreetGold operates from its headquarters above the flagship Cash Generator store in St Helens town centre — a real, identifiable UK business with genuine premises, real staff and a public local reputation. You always know who is behind your valuation.
