Pawn Shops in Houston for Jewelry, Gold & Watches

14 shops, 4 of them luxury specialists, naming 34 brands between them. Authentication on site: GIA gemologist, In-house gemologist, GIA-trained staff.

These Houston-area pawn shops lend on and buy jewelry, gold, diamonds and watches. The luxury specialists at the top deal mainly in high-end watches, designer jewelry and handbags. The shops below them have large jewelry and gold departments and also take everyday pieces such as gold chains, wedding bands and diamond rings. The last group buys and sells jewelry and gold but does not make loans.

Addresses, phone numbers and hours were checked against each shop's own website in September 2026. Call before you go: hours change, and some shops only lend on certain brands or above a minimum value.

What Pawn Shops Pay for Jewelry, Gold and Watches

These are our pawn shop calculator's figures for three common items, not quotes from the shops above. Gold uses today's price; the gold calculator works out any weight and karat.

Example estimatesGold at $157.00 per gram
ItemSells forPawn loan
20 g 14k gold chain$1,286–$1,561$514–$937

What a Pawn Loan Costs in Texas

Texas caps the monthly charge on a pawn loan. The cap depends on the size of the loan and applies to the whole amount. These are the limits set by the Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner for July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027:

Loan amountMaximum monthly chargeExample
$0.01 to $27620%$200 loan: $40 a month
$276.01 to $1,84015%$1,000 loan: $150 a month
$1,840.01 to $2,7602.5%$2,000 loan: $50 a month
$2,760.01 to $23,0001%$5,000 loan: $50 a month

The charge drops sharply above $1,840. An $1,800 loan can cost $270 a month, while a $2,000 loan costs at most $50. If your item is worth enough, ask the shop whether it will lend just over that amount.

A Texas pawn loan runs for up to one month. If you miss the due date, the shop must hold your item for another 30 days, and you can still get it back by paying the loan plus one-thirtieth of the monthly charge for each extra day (Texas Finance Code §371.169). You are not required to repay. If you don't, the shop can keep the item after those 30 days and you owe nothing more (§371.170).

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Houston pawn shops charge for a loan?

Texas caps the monthly charge by loan size: 20% on loans up to $276, 15% up to $1,840, 2.5% up to $2,760 and 1% up to $23,000, for July 2026 to June 2027. A $1,000 loan can cost up to $150 a month; a $5,000 loan up to $50.

How long do I have to repay a pawn loan in Texas?

A Texas pawn loan runs for up to one month. After the due date the shop must hold your item for 30 more days, and you can still redeem it by paying a daily charge on top of the original amount. You and the shop can also agree in writing to extend the loan.

What happens if I don't repay a pawn loan in Texas?

You lose the item and owe nothing more. Texas law says you are not obligated to repay a pawn loan. If you don't redeem the item within 30 days after the due date, the shop can keep it.

Do Houston pawn shops buy gold?

Yes. Most shops on this page buy gold outright as well as lending on it. Offers are based on the weight, the karat and the day's gold price. Our gold calculator shows the melt value at today's price and assumes a buyer pays 70 to 85% of it.
