ESTATE APPRAISALSQUESTIONS

WHAT IS FAIR MARKET VALUE
VS REPLACEMENT VALUE?

Fair market value = what a willing buyer pays a willing seller. Replacement value = what it costs to replace at retail. FMV is typically 30-60% lower and is the right standard for estate division, donation, and selling.

CAN YOU IDENTIFY
SIGNED OR NOTABLE PIECES?

Yes — we look for maker's marks, hallmarks, design-house signatures (Tiffany, Cartier, Van Cleef), and known vintage designers. A signed piece may be worth significantly more than its metal and stone value alone.

HOW LONG DOES
AN ESTATE APPRAISAL TAKE?

A small collection (5-10 pieces): 1-2 hours on-site. Larger collections: we may schedule across multiple sessions or take the collection on consignment for a few days. We provide an estimated timeline before beginning.

ESTATE APPRAISALS

What the collection is actually worth — in writing.

Estate appraisals assess a jewelry collection\'s fair market value — what the pieces would realistically sell for, not what they\'d cost to replace. We examine the collection systematically, identify any signed or notably valuable pieces, assess stones, and provide a written report suitable for estate distribution, probate proceedings, or equitable division among beneficiaries.
