Jewelry appraisals protect your valuable pieces in the event of damage, loss, or theft. Without a proper evaluation of your jewelry’s worth, you can’t get insurance coverage for it.

Knowing you need estimated values and understanding the appraiser’s report once it’s available are two different things.

Old Mine Cut diamonds were first cut in the 1700’s and they were popular prior to the Old European Cut diamonds. They are known for their squarish to rectangular outline when they were well cut, similar to a Cushion Cut. However, many of these diamonds were not well cut and today they are known as “lumpy Old Miners.” This 18k yellow gold pin is circa 1840 and it contains these lumpy diamonds.
