Capes Dunn & Co Ltd, will collect the same amount as the resale

Royalty rates will only apply to works sold in the secondary market and not for those sold for the first time, and for works which are sold for €1000 or more.   Royalty rates are calculated as a percentage of the sale price on a sliding scale from 4% (from €1000 to €50,000) down to 0.25% (over €500,000). 

Resale royalties ARE NOT subject to VAT.

ADDITIONAL TERMS OF BUSINESS RELATING TO JEWELLERY

All carat weights are approximate only, with the given limitations due to stone settings.

• Unmarked gold items are tested with acids and any stated carat or carat range is approximate only.
• Any stated colour and/or clarity grades given for any diamonds or coloured gemstones are of the opinion of Capes Dunn only and are to serve as a guide only, with the given limitations due to stone settings and use of standard, non-laboratory,  gemmological equipment.
• Treatments to improve/enhance the colour, clarity and durability of coloured gemstones are now regarded as standard practice in the jewellery trade, treatments include, but are not limited to; heating, oiling, use of resins and other fillers, impregnation, irradiation, use of coatings and dyes. These treatments may be permanent, semi-permanent or temporary. It should therefore be assumed, unless expressly stated to the contrary, that all coloured gemstones have been treated in some way.
• Synthetic (man-made, lab grown) coloured gemstones are fairly common in the jewellery trade, and while every effort is made to detect and disclose the synthetic origin of coloured gemstones, this is not always possible with the given limitations due to stone settings and use of standard, non-laboratory, gemmological equipment.  Capes Dunn cannot guarantee the natural or synthetic origin of any coloured gemstone, unless there is accompanying documentation obtained from an internationally recognised Gemmological Laboratory stating such.
• Like coloured gemstones diamonds are now increasingly subject to colour and clarity treatments to improve their appearance, treatments include but are not limited to; HPHT, fracture filling, laser drilling and coatings. Although every effort is made to detect and disclose such treatments this is not always possible with the given limitations due to stone settings and use of standard, non-laboratory, gemmological equipment. Capes Dunn therefore cannot guarantee the treated or untreated condition of any diamonds sold, unless there is accompanying documentation obtained from an internationally recognised Gemmological Laboratory disclosing the type of treatment/s present.
• Synthetic diamonds (man-made, lab grown), especially in small ‘melee’ sizes, are becoming more common in the market place. Due to the great difficulty in detecting the synthetic origin of diamonds without the necessary laboratory equipment, it is not possible for Capes Dunn to guarantee a diamond is not synthetic, therefore there will be no comment made on a diamond’s natural or synthetic origin, unless there is accompanying documentation obtained from an internationally recognised Gemmological Laboratory stating such.
