Jewelry Appraisals
At James Martin Jewelers, we provide
professional jewelry appraisals for a wide range of needs—performed right here in Dubuque by our on-staff GIA Graduate Gemologist. Whether you're
insuring a new engagement ring, managing an estate, or simply curious about your jewelry’s value, we offer clarity, accuracy, and peace of mind.
Types of Appraisals We Offer:
Insurance Appraisals
Protect your investment with a full written appraisal, suitable for submission to your insurance company. Each document includes a detailed description, photograph, and replacement value—prepared by our GIA-trained expert.
→ Ask us about private jewelry insurance options as well.
Estate Appraisals
We can provide the necessary documentation for estate planning, probate, or distribution. These appraisals are handled with care, discretion, and professionalism.
Verbal Value Estimates
Looking to sell to a third party or just
curious about an item’s value? We offer on-the-spot verbal ballpark estimates—quick, informal, and helpful.
Jewelry Box Sorting
Not sure what’s fine jewelry and what’s
costume? Bring in your collection, and we’ll help separate pieces with precious
metals and gemstones from those of purely sentimental value.
