April 21 2013: Victorian Antique Gold Jewelry are becoming scarce due to the combination of the  “Great Recession,” and all time Gold and Silver prices.  Slumping retail sales over the past 4 years have forced many shops to melt antique pieces of jewelry for the gold content. 

Jose Padilla, the owner of popular antique store Robbia Antiques, a well known personality in the antiques and collectables market, has been into the business for over 20 years and has never seen market conditions like they are today.   The Great Recession has forced many to sell prizes possession to “Cash For Gold” businesses which typically destroy them.

Padilla collects and sells top quality Victorian jewelry, silver, antique pottery and depression glasses Fine artwork among others. Experts of the field believe that Jose is actually doing a great job in keeping the history of the country alive. He is known to search for quality antiques at the best of his ability and then dedicate the efforts in finding a perfect home for them.

When contacted, Jose said, “Having grown up in a home that collected antiques I understand the history of items that I am saving.” He further added, “Saving these rare items and making sure they find proper homes where they can be appreciated is my passion.” 

For Jose, searching, collecting and selling of quality antiques is the biggest passion of his life. This is what he does for living and plans to do the same for the years to come as well. Recently, he collaborated with an online firm to open his own web store as well. The purpose of the same is to reach out to a wider client base and look for perfect homes for the antiques.

Buyers get a platform where they can visit and see the images of the product, make the payment and expect the same to be delivered at the desired address in a matter of a few days. The price of antiques may vary from a few dollars to $10,000 and more.
