Jewelry Insurance

A main part of our jewelry appraisal services is supplying a prospective client with a complete jewelry appraisal for insurance replacement purposes for diamond engagement rings and fine jewelry. Many insurance companies request that a jewelry insurance appraisal is updated every few years by a certified gemologist appraiser due to the nature of these pieces.

Charitable Appraisal

A charitable donation appraisal is sought when jewelry is donated to a charity oriented organization, educational institution, museum, or other public institution–and the donor may be entitled to a tax deduction. The estimation of value is based on a Fair Market Value and is usually accompanied by form 8283, if the value exceeds $5,000USD. All of our appraisals are accepted by the IRS.
