Pre-Appraisal Appointment

A Pre-Appraisal Appointment is required in order for us to appraise your jewelry, whether for insurance purposes, estate purposes, or fair market evaluations.

During the Pre-Appraisal Appointment, we provide you with the appraisal fee for each piece, which depends upon the attributes of the piece and the type of appraisal you need. Your pieces will not be appraised during this assessment.

You’re welcome to leave your pieces with us for cleaning and appraisal following your Pre-Appraisal Appointment. Alternatively, you can drop them off at a later date, and we can proceed with the appraisal using the fees calculated during your appointment, which we keep on file for six months.

Choose the appropriate number of pieces below, please! 

• 1 to 3 pieces are assessed at no charge.
• 4+ pieces require a Professional Jewelry Box Review. You can learn more and request an appointment through our Jewelry Box Review page, which outlines the service in detail. The $200 fee is non-refundable but will be applied toward your appraisal fees if you leave your pieces with us the same day.
• If you are seeking approval for a While-You-Watch appraisal appointment--choose by the number of pieces, as described above.
  

Are you considering selling your jewelry to us? Do not book here. Please book a Sell Us Your Jewels appointment instead.

If you are seeking While-You-Watch appraisal services, we will send you a booking link for the amount of time determined through our assessment. While-you-Watch services book at $300/hour, with a one-hour minimum. Our most common duration for an individual item is 1 to 1-1/2 hours per piece.
