Why would I want to have my jewelry appraised?

At Hemming Plaza Jewelers, we offer appraisal services for your jewelry. Below are some reasons why you might want to get a written appraisal.

  1. Insurance Replacement – For obtaining insurance riders, it is our responsibility to provide accurate replacement valuations reflecting appropriate coverage for the current market. The accuracy and detail included in this report makes it possible to identify or have exact duplicates recreated of precious jewelry items should they ever be lost or stolen.
  2. Settling an Estate (Probate) – These require proper appraisals whether you are an executor, a law firm, a guardian, or accounting firm in order to represent the client’s best interest. We recognize that these personal items have invaluable sentimental or emotional attachment and consider all aspects of the comfort level of the owner.
  3. Divorce – This is a fair market value report for an equal division of common property. We have the experience to provide the valuation needed to expedite the process.
  4. Bankruptcy, Collateral or Liquidation
  5. Charitable Contribution
  6. Hypothetical Valuation (Post Loss) or Damage
