Jewelry appraisal events provide a valuable opportunity to gain a clear understanding of your treasured items' worth. Whether you're looking to insure your jewelry, plan your estate, or simply satisfy your curiosity, a professional appraisal ensures you have accurate, up-to-date information. These events make the process convenient and accessible, offering expert insights in a friendly and welcoming environment.

At J. David Jewelry, we take pride in hosting appraisal events that stand out from the rest. Our experienced appraisers follow industry standards to deliver precise valuations, giving you the confidence and peace of mind you deserve. With a focus on exceptional customer service and attention to detail, our events provide a seamless experience—whether you're attending for the first time or returning for an updated appraisal.

At this time, unlike Real Estate/Real Property Appraisers, there are no state or federal licensing or educational requirements to become a Personal Property Appraiser. While a well-trained jeweler or gemologist can identify what your item is, specialized education in valuation methodology is essential to ensure accurate value assessments.

All of our appraisal events are conducted in person because we recognize the importance of having your jewelry appraised accurately and efficiently. To ensure convenience, you also have the option to drop off your items, and we’ll notify you once the appraisal is complete.

Insurance Appraisals
Our jewelry appraisals are accepted by all major insurance companies. A detailed appraisal helps ensure a precise and comprehensive replacement process from your insurance provider. Some policies and carriers may require additional appraisals to verify sales receipts and descriptions.

- Values for retail replacement

- Damage assessments for partial loss of value

Estate Appraisals
Fair Market Value appraisals serve a variety of purposes, including estate planning and legal requirements. Our appraisal services comply with IRS requirements for a “qualified appraisal” by a “qualified appraiser,” as outlined in IRS Pub. 561 and IRS Revenue Proc. 66-49. We adhere to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) to provide reliable valuations.

- Gift/Inheritance Tax

- Equitable Distribution

Other Reports
In addition to full appraisals, we offer reports tailored for various purposes. If you're unsure about the type of report you need, we are here to guide you. Some of the available reports include:

- Dissolution of Marriage

- Proof of Ownership for Customs Declarations
