Consulting

At The Concierge Gemologist, we pride ourselves on offering a range of professional services that cater to your needs, schedule, and location. Whether you're looking for expert appraisals, gemological testing, or help managing your jewelry collection, our services are designed to provide superior guidance while ensuring your precious items are treated with care and respect.

Appraisal Services

Our appraisal services adhere to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), ensuring that you receive an independent, unbiased opinion of value. With a state-of-the-art Mobile Gemological Laboratory, we can perform many testing, grading, and evaluation procedures on-site, right in front of your eyes. Our non-destructive testing methods avoid the use of harmful scratch tests or acids, preserving the integrity of your valuables.

Jewelry Collection Review & Sorting Services

If you're uncertain about the value or potential of your family heirlooms or other jewelry, our collection review and sorting services are ideal. We offer an hourly rate of $75 (with a $100 minimum) for an in-depth consultation. A trained gemologist will carefully inspect your pieces, helping you determine which items are authentic and hold value, as well as offering suggestions for creating new, wearable pieces from your collection.

Gemological Testing & Reporting

Our laboratory provides professional diamond and gemstone testing services, utilizing the latest industry-approved equipment. We can detect any after-mine treatments, ensuring the authenticity and quality of your stones. For $30 per item, you can receive verbal identification results, or for $50 per item, we will provide a comprehensive written report.

Brokering & Consignment Services

When it comes time to sell or liquidate your collection, we offer brokering and consignment services. While we generally do not buy items from our clients to avoid conflicts of interest, we can guide you in finding the best venues for selling your jewelry. Contact us to discuss how we can help you with your specific needs.

On-Site Mobile Services

Equipped with our Mobile Gemological Laboratory, we can bring expert-level testing and evaluations directly to you. All of our equipment is industry rated and approved, ensuring that your items are handled with the utmost care. Let us cater to your location and schedule, providing on-the-spot grading, testing, and evaluation services for your peace of mind.

Heirloom & Mystery Gemstone Services

Many clients come to us with heirloom jewelry or mystery gemstones that they want to authenticate or understand better. Whether you're unsure if an old family piece is genuine or you're curious about a gemstone's value, we offer thorough inspection and identification services. We can even advise on creating new pieces from your cherished heirlooms, ensuring they can be enjoyed for years to come.
