| For your insurance appraisal, you need a graduate gemologist with appraisal training to appraise and price your jewelry so you have enough insurance to replace the item, but you are not purchasing more insurance than is needed. We can do this for you. This most important part of a professionally written jewelry appraisal is not the declared price evaluation, it is the detailed written description of the item accurately describing the design, the metal, and how it is fabricated, the quality of the gemstones, including cut, color, clarity, and gemstone weight. The appraisal should include photographs of each item for identification in case of loss or theft. In view of continuing inflation, we recommend having your jewelry inspected and cleaned annually and revaluated for insurance every 2-3 years. We will inspect and clean your jewelry at no charge. |
