JEWELRY APPRAISAL
Melding Metals and Minerals
Jewelry Appraisal is a service that Gemmy International has offered for several decades. We operate on the principal that more information, measurement, and data is better than too little. Generally, appraisal is for the purpose of establishing fair market, or replacement values for your jewelry. In the event that you would experience a loss through theft, natural disasters, or damage it is very important that your insurance company has a concise record of the type and quality of materials, precise measurements to the hundredth of a millimeter, and high resolution photographs from several angles, including macro photos of hallmarks and personalized engraving. An insurance company is far more likely to fully restore you for the actual value of your items if they are unambiguously described and documented. Highly detailed appraisals exponentially increase the chances of recovering your jewels should they become evidence in a criminal matter. We archive all appraisals, and will provide replacement copies at any time needed. Appraisals are printed on photo stock at highest resolution, and are delivered in an archival sleeve.
