Welcome to our Accredited Gemological Laboratory!
 We want you to be with us when we perform your appraisal service or consultation. Clients will send items to us but you are lucky if you are close by. One client drove ten hours to use our services! This is an environment developed to share information and to help the consumer understand the markets and jewelry in a totally honest and forthright manner.
We are here to answer your nagging questions.
When shopping for an appraiser you may want to inquire about equipment and qualifications.
The color comparison set we use had to pass through AGS to be approved as a Master Set.
A number of appraisers use CZ’s master comparison sets. These can change color over time and it is not comparing apples to apples. I have a second microscope in my office just for the clients so they can ‘visit’ with their purchase and understand why I am grading as I am.
