Estate Jewelry Appraisals

What are estate jewelry appraisals?

An Estate Jewelry Appraisal determines the fair market value or replacement cost of inherited or pre-owned jewelry, often for estate settlements, probate, resale, or insurance purposes. It provides an expert assessment of an item’s age, origin, materials, craftsmanship, and condition, ensuring accurate valuation for legal or financial documentation.

Unlike standard retail replacement appraisals, which focus on the cost of purchasing a new equivalent, estate appraisals reflect current market demand, rarity, and resale value. This makes them essential for estate planning, equitable asset distribution, tax reporting, and liquidation.

Having your jewelry evaluated by a qualified estate jewelry appraiser ensures that its valuation is accurate, market-reflective, and legally recognized. Our team at Philadelphia Jewelry Appraisers specializes in estate and inherited jewelry valuations, providing detailed appraisals tailored to your specific needs, whether for legal, personal, or financial purposes.
