Frequently Asked Questions
 


Why should I get my jewelry appraisal?
An appraisal provides a professional, documented value of your jewelry for insurance, estate planning, resale, or legal purposes. It protects your investment and gives you peace of mind.
 

How often should I update my appraisal?
It's recommended to update appraisals every 2–5 years to reflect changes in market value, metal prices, or gemstone demand—especially for insurance coverage accuracy.
 

What should I bring to my appraisal appointment?
Bring the jewelry item(s), any original receipts, certificates, past appraisals, or grading reports (e.g., GIA) that can assist in an accurate valuation.
 

How long does a jewelry appraisal take?
Most appraisals take 30–60 minutes per item, depending on complexity. For multiple pieces, plan for a longer session or drop-off service.

Will my jewelry be safe during the appraisal process?
Absolutely. All evaluations are done securely on-site, with your items handled carefully by trained professionals using industry-standard equipment and procedures.
