What do you change for appraisals on several pieces of Jewelry?

Hello Sundy, I charge by the hour and the amount of time required will depend on the complexity of the items, the purpose of the appraisal, and whether you need a full appraisal document, an oral appraisal, a purchase consultation, a gem identification, or a resale consultation. It’s best to call me so we can create a plan that is designed to meet your goals. All the Best, Jane
