Jewellery & silver auctions: antique rings, brooches and silverware, searched at once
Good jewellery and silver turn up everywhere from dedicated jewellery specialists to general house-clearance sales, often sold as an unsorted job lot of "assorted costume and silver jewellery" by a valuer who isn't a specialist. A single decent piece can sit unnoticed inside a box of thirty, priced for the box rather than what's actually in it.
Why jewellery and silver lots get missed
Specialist jewellery sales are watched closely by dealers and collectors, which is exactly why they're not always where the value is. A hallmarked silver piece, a gold ring, an Art Deco brooch, or a strand of natural pearls is just as likely to surface in a general auction job lot as in a dedicated jewellery sale. Checking every platform every day to catch these is unrealistic for one person.
One search across every platform
Auction Bid Assistant's free browser extension searches the-saleroom, EasyLive, Bidspotter, Invaluable, NumisBids, iCollector and LiveAuctionWorld simultaneously, alongside eBay. A search for "antique jewellery," "sterling silver," "job lot," a hallmark, or "brooch" returns matching lots across all of them, with images, estimates, current bids where shown, and sale countdowns, sorted by platform in tabs.
Real results for "antique jewellery": 59 lots found in one search, from a sterling silver job lot to an Art Deco brooch and a coral and gold piece.
It works by searching from inside your own browser, the same as opening and searching each site yourself, just done in seconds. Nothing is stored on our servers, permissions are minimal, and the extension never places a bid on your behalf.
Alerts: for a slow-moving but competitive market
Good jewellery and silver lots don't come up often, so when they do, save a search (a metal, era, maker, or "antique jewellery" generally) and get emailed the moment a new lot matches it, across all covered platforms including eBay, rather than relying on remembering to check each one.
Want to try before installing?
The same search box works on this website with no install at all for eBay, iCollector, LiveAuctionWorld and Featured Auction catalogues, a quick way to see matching jewellery and silver lots before adding the rest of the platforms via the extension.
Built for how jewellery and silver buyers actually work
Save any lot with one click from search results, export your shortlist as a printable PDF or CSV before a sale, and on the day itself the optional live bridge feeds the auctioneer's asking price into the free bid calculator, so your maximum (with buyer's premium and VAT included) is always in front of you.

Common questions
Can I search jewellery and silver auctions across multiple platforms at once?
Yes, the free extension searches the-saleroom, EasyLive, Bidspotter, Invaluable, NumisBids, iCollector and LiveAuctionWorld simultaneously, alongside eBay, from one search box.
Does it cover silver and job lots, not just single pieces of jewellery?
Yes, any keyword works, so sterling silver, job lots, brooches, pendants and other jewellery categories search the same way across all covered platforms.
Can I get alerted the moment a new jewellery or silver lot is listed?
Yes, save a search and get an email the moment a new lot matches it, across all covered platforms including eBay.
Is the extension safe?
It requests minimal permissions, cannot read your browsing history, only reads publicly visible auction listings, and never modifies pages or places bids. No account, no personal data.
