Turning old gold into new opportunities – Degussa expands its gold buying services

Baar, September 8, 2025 – Gold prices are currently reaching remarkable highs, making this an ideal time to bring long-forgotten jewellery back to life. Many people own old jewellery, broken chains or inherited pieces that sit unused in drawers. Yet these items often hold more value than expected – especially at a time when gold prices are at record levels.

Whether for a long-awaited trip, a personal wish or as a financial cushion: those who act now can turn hidden value into new opportunities.

With its professional gold buying service, Degussa offers a reliable way to unlock the potential contained in gold. “Many customers are surprised by how much their old jewellery is actually worth, especially when it is professionally assessed and accurately valued,” says Straller-von Kersten, Regional Manager at Degussa.

New service in Switzerland: gold buying now also available in Zurich and Geneva from September
