Our appraisal reports include a thorough description of your jewelry, including its quality, condition, and any unique features that may impact its value. We also provide a credible opinion of valuation, which is essential for insurance, estate, and resale purposes.
As the only AGA Certified Gemological Laboratory in San Diego, we use advanced technology and scientific methods to provide our professional, independent and unbiased opinions of the identification, quality and grading.
We provide services in selling jewelry for our private clients who wish to convert the jewelry that no longer fit their lifestyle into liquid assets or for estates and trusts seeking to sell collections or partial collections.
When you want to turn your unworn jewelry into cash, and you need to have an idea of how much it can be sold at the secondary market, or an idea of how much should you reasonably ask for, we can help you with a resale appraisal of your jewelry.
