designation in Gems and Jewelry is the highly respected Master Gemologist Appraiser.

When do you need to get an Appraisal?
1.  You need an appraisal if you want to obtain insurance coverage on items worth
more than $500.

2.  You should have an appraisal if you plan to sell your jewelry or use it as collateral.

3.  You need an appraisal to settle an estate or for fair distribution of gifts.

4.  You need an appraisal to claim a casualty loss for your insurance company or the IRS.

5.  You should have an appraisal for division of property in a divorce.

How Often do I Need My Jewelry Appraised?
The Insurance Institute of America recommends that jewelry be re-appraised
every two years.  At GEM SECURE your appraisal will be on file for five years.  
Updating your appraisal can be done relatively quickly and inexpensively.

Do I Have to Leave my Jewelry to Have it Appraised?
You may leave your jewelry for appraisal, or arrange to wait and watch while the
qualitative analysis is carried out.  Many people prefer to leave the items for appraisal
and run a few errands for a couple of hours and return to pick it up later in the day.  
You can also have the appraisal done in the comfort of your home.  For an additional
fee we can do the appraisal in your home, office or jewelry store with our Portable
Gem Laboratory.
Designated Member of the International Society of Appraisers.  Their higest level of
accreditation is the Certified Appraiser of Personal Property (CAAP).

organizations in the world.  There purpose is to establish requirments for professional appraisal practice
and to promote and maintain a high level of public trust in professional appraisal practice.
