For many of our clients, London is the natural hub of their personal and professional lives. It is the UK’s centre of luxury, finance, and high-value assets—and for Edinburgh Asset Finance (EAF), it is effectively our second home. While our headquarters remain in Edinburgh, a significant proportion of our clientele is based in London and the surrounding regions. Whether travelling by train, plane, or car, we are regularly in the capital meeting clients, carrying out valuations, and arranging the type of discreet, high-value lending that traditional London pawnbrokers struggle to match.
Our approach is simple: a premium, private and highly professional alternative to the typical pawnbroking experience. Designed for clients who prioritise discretion, efficiency, expertise, and the ability to unlock liquidity from valuable assets without unnecessary delays, EAF has become the preferred choice for individuals seeking the best pawnbrokers in London—even without a permanent shopfront.
We proudly serve clients across Central London, Greater London and beyond, offering rapid decisions, secure handling, and loan values ranging from £1,000 to £1,000,000+.
A Modern London Pawnbroker for High-Value Assets
London has no shortage of pawnbrokers, but very few operate at the level required by clients with luxury items, significant asset portfolios, or tight business timeframes. That’s why so many individuals—entrepreneurs, investors, collectors, and private clients—turn to EAF instead.
Our specialist lending covers a wide range of valuable assets, including:
- Fine Swiss watches (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Richard Mille and others)
- High-end jewellery and diamonds
- Luxury handbags and designer goods
- Fine art and sculpture
- Gold, bullion and precious metals
- Classic, sports and prestige cars
- Rare whisky collections and casks
- Private number plates
- High-value technology, instruments and collectibles
Every item is assessed by experts who understand both intrinsic value and market positioning—something the average pawnbroker London typically cannot offer.
Why London Clients Choose Us Over Traditional Pawnbrokers
Because we focus purely on high-value lending, our clients benefit from a refined, efficient and deeply personalised service. Whether you meet us in Central London, at your office, or at a private location of your choosing, the experience is always built around confidentiality, speed and expertise.

FAQs – London Pawnbroking
Do you handle high-value luxury assets at your London location?
Yes. London is one of our most active regions for large, high-value items such as fine watches, gold, jewellery, luxury handbags, rare whisky, artwork, vehicles and more. High-value lending is the core of our service.
Is same-day funding available in London?
Absolutely. Many London clients receive funds within the same day, and often within hours, depending on the asset and location of the meeting.
Do I need to schedule a private valuation appointment in London?
Yes—meetings are arranged privately for your convenience and discretion. We do not operate a walk-in shop in London; all valuations are one-to-one and confidential.
What security measures protect items stored at your London facilities?
All items are kept in high-security, insured storage facilities with strict handling protocols. As soon as an item is taken into our possession, it is covered by comprehensive insurance and fully safeguarded.
Can international clients use your London pawnbroking services?
Due to the rules attached to our FCA license we can only deal with UK residents. However we do have a number of international clients who are resident in London who choose to meet us here for valuations and loans. We can coordinate appointments around your schedule.
