How to Tell If Your Jewelry Needs Appraisal or Reappraisal

Your fine jewelry isn’t just beautiful—it’s valuable. But how do you know when it’s time to have your pieces appraised or reappraised? Whether you’re protecting heirlooms, updating insurance records, or curious about your jewelry’s current market value, regular appraisals are essential.

📌 Why Appraisals Matter

Appraisals serve as an official record of your jewelry’s value, which is crucial for insurance and resale purposes. At Kingoff’s Jewelers, our certified gemologists offer professional jewelry appraisals that provide peace of mind and financial protection.

⏳ When Should You Reappraise?

We recommend reappraising your jewelry every 3–5 years. Market conditions, precious metal prices, and gemstone values can fluctuate—making past appraisals outdated. If your jewelry was appraised more than five years ago, or if you’ve had any alterations done, it’s time for an update.

🔗 Where to Get a Trusted Appraisal

Not all appraisals are equal. It’s important to choose a reputable jeweler with deep knowledge of diamonds, gemstones, and vintage pieces. Learn more about our appraisal services at Kingoff’s and schedule an appointment with one of our experts today.
