G'day and welcome to my 'Ask The Appraiser' page at the Members Only Insiders Guide to Jewelry and Gemstones.
After 35 years in the Jewelry Industry, qualified as a Gemologist/Valuer, I have more recently been involved with the very popular search portal 'About.com' as one of their recognized 'Experts' in the field of 'Jewelry, Gems, & Minerals.' You can find me there at AllExperts.com
During that time I have answered hundreds of questions, and now I am available to you as resident Gemologist and Valuer of this terrific website, where anyone can produce a Jewelry Appraisal at home or work using the Members FREE Online Software system.
As long as your question relates to Jewelry in General and Valuations in particular, I shall endevour to help you (free of charge) to get a straight answer to your questions.
*** BUT PLEASE - Do NOT ask me to do an appraisal for you - only you can do that ***
