Gold and Jewellery Calculator
Estimate the gold value of an item by carat, weight and currency. Add a making charge separately so the calculation follows a real shop quotation more closely.
Gold and jewellery cost calculator
Uses the latest market rate shown on this site. Enter the making charge quoted by your shop; stones, taxes and other premiums are excluded.
Calculated troy ounce = 31.1034768 g.
Use a shop quote line by line
Enter the same carat and net weight printed on the item. Add the making charge shown by the shop, then compare the estimate with the quoted total.
What remains outside the calculation
Gemstones, taxes, delivery, brand value and buyback terms can all change the final cost. Check each of these before making a payment decision.
Calculator Questions
Does the calculator include making charges?
Yes. You can enter a making charge per gram or one total charge. Stones, taxes and other retailer costs remain separate unless you add them yourself.
Which weight unit should I use?
Use the same unit used on the shop quotation. The calculator can convert grams, kilograms and troy ounces and the configured weight units.
Is the result a purchase price?
It is an estimate based on the market rate and values you enter. Confirm the complete invoice, including the carat, net weight and return terms, with the seller.
Using the gold calculator in Egypt
The calculator estimates metal value from carat, weight and the latest accepted EGP rate. It is best used before or after speaking to a jeweller so you can separate the gold-only value from workmanship and other invoice lines.
Enter the net gold weight, not the gross weight of stones or non-gold parts. Then add making charges exactly as quoted: flat amount, per gram or another method. The calculator can add the number you provide, but it cannot test purity, inspect the item or judge whether workmanship is fair.
For selling old jewellery, remember that a buyer may test purity, exclude stones, apply a spread and value branded work differently from melt value. Ask for the accepted weight and deduction in writing before agreeing to the sale.
