Professional Appraisals for Your Precious Pieces

Our most treasured jewelry pieces often hold a value that far exceeds their monetary worth. With the cherished memories and precious sentiments held within them, it's easy to understand why some pieces are considered invaluable.

There are still many reasons, though, why one would choose to have their pieces appraised. Whether you need to insure your piece, or need to determine its value for estate purposes, having a documented appraisal done by a certified professional is often necessary.

At Paul’s Jewelry, our team of jewelers has over 59 years of experience in appraising various types of fine jewelry. Combined with the discerning eye of our on-site GIA Graduate Gemologists, we can assist you in accurately appraising your precious pieces, providing an honest and detailed documentation of their monetary value.

METHOD

How It's Done

Appraisals are performed by a GIA Graduate Gemologist using Instappraise software with detailed measurements and close examination of every piece.

  • An original, sealed printout for your records.
  • A link to your online portal, sent to your email.
  • View and print additional copies anytime.

TYPES

Two Common Appraisals

The method used is the same for both, what differs is how the value is calculated.

Insurance Appraisal

RETAIL REPLACEMENT VALUE

The most common appraisal. It estimates the amount required to replace a lost or stolen item with an identical or similar piece.

Estate Appraisal

FAIR MARKET VALUE

Used for inheritance or divorce settlements. Reflects what a third-party buyer could reasonably expect to pay for the item as-is.

Other appraisal types, including charitable donation appraisals, are available upon request for tax purposes.

Please get in touch with us to speak with the appraiser about your specific needs.

WHAT MILWAUKEE HAS TO SAY

Customer review - Hand earing Paul's jewelry ring

I brought in my already beautiful, heirloom wedding ring to add a piece of our marriage. Vivian knew right away what I was looking for. We placed the order and was told 6 weeks. But we got it back in 3. I absolutely LOVE the addition. It’s still a simple, elegant ring with 3 generations of love.

Customer review - Hand earing Paul's jewelry ring

They helped me with an heirloom ring, gave me some great advice and polished the ring for me! I also left with a necklace made by a local artist. The place is beautiful and the custom pieces are gorgeous.

Vivian did an excellent job incorporating a loose stone into a beautiful and unique engagement ring. The wedding bands compliment each other and add to the beauty!
