Are old rhinestones worth anything?

Whether old rhinestones are worth anything varies. Loose rhinestones generally aren't worth much on their own, as they tend to be made of glass, acrylic and other materials that don't have intrinsic value. However, rhinestones set in vintage or antique jewelry may be worth something. The maker, age, type, style and condition of rhinestones will all contribute to their potential value. For an expert opinion on how much yours may be worth, consult a certified appraiser or experienced jewelry dealer. Shop a large collection of antique and vintage jewelry on 1stDibs.
