YOUR WRITTEN APPRAISAL
The details
behind the value.
Metal type and karat or purity, weight, a detailed description, photographs, gemstone identification and grading (shape, measurements, carat weight, color, clarity, cut), the type of value (such as replacement value) and the date and signature of the appraiser.
THE DETAILS
Value depends
on the purpose.
An insurance figure is not the same as a resale offer. Tell us what the appraisal is for so we can use the correct standard.
Replacement value
What it would cost to replace the piece with a similar one. This is the standard insurance companies normally ask for.
Fair market value
What the piece might sell for between a willing buyer and seller. This differs from the cost of replacing it at retail.
