Jewellery valuation determines the market value of a gold item set with diamonds or gemstones, considering metal weight and fineness, gemstone quality, workmanship and brand. An HRD Antwerp accredited gemmologist prepares a written report for insurance, inheritance or sale.
We are a jewellery examination and valuation laboratory with over 20 years of experience in gemmology. Establishing the current market value provides a documented basis for insurance, sale or notarial proceedings.
What influences jewellery value
- Metal: gold weight and fineness (for example, 18K = 75% pure gold; 14K = 58.5%);
- Gemstones: type, carat weight, quality and identity;
- Workmanship and design: complexity and execution;
- Brand and signature: recognised designers and jewellery houses can add value;
- Market demand: current local and international conditions.
The valuation report
You receive a written document describing the item, gemstone characteristics and estimated value — suitable for insurers and notarial matters.
