appraisal clinics

Appraisals for insurance purposes or probate are held at Brian Davis Jewellery and are conducted by Caroline Davis on a daily basis.

We charge $95.00 per hour + HST or $35.00 per piece + HST, whichever is the lesser of the two.
Some appraisals take two to three days but can be done by next day, when applicable.

A FREE cleaning is included with appraisals.

***We are located at the west end of Northgate Plaza and welcome all new and present customers.

What good is a jewellery appraisal?
In addition to insurance-related risks, there are a few other compelling reasons to get a jewellery appraisal:

  • It substantiates proof of ownership in case your jewellery is ever stolen and recovered by police.
  • An up-to-date appraisal keeps record of the current value of your piece, in case you wish to sell it in the future.

Do jewellery appraisals mean anything?
Getting a diamond appraisal will provide a detailed description of the ring – including the diamond’s carat, color, clarity, and cut – and a corresponding valuation based on the quality of all its various elements such as diamonds, side stones, age, condition, and branding.
