Aside from being a beautiful thing to wear, fine jewelry is a serious investment, and it’s important that investments be protected! Abracadabra offers certified appraisal services for fine jewelry. Appraisals are necessary to determine the current market value of a piece, which in turn is necessary to insure any piece of costly fine jewelry!
Simply set an appointment with us by using the form linked below, shoot us an email, or give us a call at 734.994.4848 to discuss the process. Once you’ve had us perform one appraisal on your piece, subsequent appraisal updates (which we recommend at least every two years or so) are half of the current rate for new appraisals. The appraisal process is outlined below.
Questions? We’re happy to help! We love helping people fully understand their jewelry, and are here for any questions about value definitions, gem testing, diamond grading, antique secondary markets… you name it!
We can’t evaluate a piece without spending some time inspecting it in person. We ask you to leave your piece with us in order to complete the appraisal. At this stage, we will discuss the purpose of the appraisal (ie. resale, insurance,) in order to determine the proper valuation. If you have any third-party laboratory reports, such as a GIA certificate, please bring it along to assist in the process.
