I have a question about a piece I own, can you help?

If you have a piece of jewelry that you would like us to appraise for you, you may ship it to us, however please contact us before sending your jewelry. The minimum charge for outside appraisals is $250.00. If your piece is older or antique, please be careful who you have appraise it. Very few appraisers are experts in vintage jewelry. We are jewelry appraisers, graduate gemologists, and experts in antique and estate jewelry, with extremely high ethical standards. Our techniques adhere to the guidelines of societies of which we are members. We cannot give an opinion or appraisal without examining your jewelry in person. All appraisals are submitted only in written form. Our appraisals include gemstone analysis, research on provenance (history of the piece), scanned photos, replacement value, and a detailed description. Once the appraisal is finished we will carefully package and ship the item and full written appraisal back to you.

You may contact the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers at (718) 896-1536 or visit their website to find a qualified appraiser in your area.
