Whether its vintage, antique or heirloom, a jewelry gift from grandma is PRECIOUS!
The Gemologist knows how YOU can get the most from your inherited jewelry!
WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL ABOUT INHERITED JEWELRY?
Jewelry is super special when you inherit it, especially because its sentimental. Grandmothers watch, grandpas ring, even mothers diamond wedding ring. It all means so much. Perhaps it’s been left to you in safe keeping for future generations to split up with family members. Not an easy task. Never-the-less, its up to you to figure things out so that it’s fair and everyone’s happy.
Just because its special to you and your wife has been telling you its worth a fortune doesn’t mean it is! Or perhaps its one of those surprises that looks like a piece of junk yet turns out to be a hidden treasure worth a fortune, passed down for generations and generations. Who would ever have known if you hadn’t checked it out?
You will never know what you have until you take it to a professional who knows what they are doing. Someone who has been in the trade for years. Who has been to school and who has been living, breathing and dealing in gems their entire life!

This is because we are in the center of what is going on in North America and see everything and can compare to other goods. We don’t want you to be taken advantage of
We believe if you’re in the market to liquidate your assets, you could shave profits off the top if you pay out thousands in appraisal costs only to sell your goods. Though its good to find out what your inherited jewelry is worth, be careful not to waste valuable dollars appraising items that aren’t really worth appraising. We will tell you if something is worth appraising or NOT! It certainly makes sense to appraise highly valuable pieces.
