We are members of the prestigious American Gem Society and include on our staff two Certified Gemologist Appraisers and five Registered Jewelers with more than 60 years of combined experience in the jewelry industry. We maintain a Certified AGS Gem Laboratory in our store and adhere to the Society s Code of Ethics, the most comprehensive in the jewelry industry. Our qualified appraisers, trained in both gemology and valuation theory, will identify the gems, gem materials, and metals that comprise your jewelry. We will properly assess all components of the piece, including relative beauty and rarity, and determine its overall quality and value. Future valuation updates are provided at no charge.
Hourly rates are available for large collections or antique jewelry.
We will be happy to help you with jewelry you may have inherited and with division of jewelry in your own estate. Please call with any questions you may have or to schedule an appraisal appointment. Remember, the most important elements in a professional appraisal service are the appraisers knowledge and integrity. This report, which is used for purchasing jewelry insurance, should be kept with the original receipt in a safe place. We provide future valuation updates at no charge when you bring the Report accompanied by the jewelry to our store.
