“Appraisal is one of the most complex tasks in the Jewelry and Gemology Trade
“Contrary to common assumptions, jewelry appraisal requires in-depth scientific expertise. The appraiser must be knowledgeable in gems; know their composition, formation, syntheses and recognize imitations, be able to distinguish metals, alloys, techniques, counterfeits or falsifications, copies, alterations, nomenclature, etc.
It is fundamental to master the use of tools and equipment and possess the necessary skills to handle the many material and document-related resources that we have at our disposal for analysis and valuation. The appraiser must have an extensive background in history, economics, pricing, be well-acquainted with the national and international markets and auction houses, be able to identify current supply and demand, and must continuously update his or her knowledge.”
