Jewelry Repair:
    We have invested in a laser welder, which allows us to modify and restore jewelry precisely with absolute control. With the laser welder, we are able to do repairs that were previously impossible by any other method. Welding fuses the metals together without using solder, resulting in a stronger more beautiful repair.

Some reasons to obtain an appraisal:

Insurance Replacement - An insurance appraisal provides information which will assure a replacement of equal quality and value.

Estate Tax - An estate appraisal is required when the total fair market value of the estate exceeds $3,000.00.

Divorce Settlement - An appraisal for division of property.

Estimate to Replace - A hypothetical report issued to determine values previously undocumented or values for lost or stolen items which were poorly documented.

Damage Report - A damage report indicates the approximate weight loss resulting from re-cutting a damaged stone and loss of value.

Collateral - A collateral appraisal is performed for a party wishing to use jewelry or gemstones for obtaining a loan or similar business purpose.

Customs Evaluation - Customs officials may ask for proof that an item of jewelry was not purchased in a foreign country from which an individual has just returned. A full appraisal is not needed in this case, A photo with a brief description on letterhead should suffice.

Casualty Loss - The IRS will allow an income tax deduction for lost and damaged items which are NOT covered by insurance.

Conservatorship (Guardianship) When an individual becomes incapacitated, the court may require a conservator (guardian) to manage the estate.

Distribution of Property - This type of appraisal is used when a will is created.  This helps ensure the heirs do not squabble over property.
