Is This Cameo Real?

June 29, 2007 By: admin Category: Brooch Appraisals 2 Comments →

While there was NOT a lot of information from a client called David in this ‘Ask The Appraiser’ Question, I considered it worthy of posting here on the Jewelry Appraisal Center blog.

Cameos: Classical to Costume (Schiffer Book for Collectors)
Cameos: Classical to Costume (Schiffer Book for Collectors)

Price: $43.16

It has many elements which should be the starting point for anyone seeking answers.

Is This Cameo Real Question: I am trying to identify a Cameo that was passed down to my wife as to if it is real or not.

I don’t really care how much it is worth - just interested

Shell Cameo Value

June 20, 2007 By: admin Category: Brooch Appraisals No Comments →

Shell Cameo Value Question: I have a cameo that my great aunt gave to me.

It belonged to her mother-in-law. It looks like a real shell-carved one.

Cameos: A Pocket Guide With Values (Schiffer Book for Collectors)

Cameos: A Pocket Guide With Values (Schiffer Book for Collectors)

Price: $16.27

It has a 10kt stamp on the back. It is a pin and also can be used with a chain.

I do not know much about cameos. Maybe you could tell me how to tell if it is valuable.

From what I understand my great aunt’s mother-in-law was well off.

Thank you!

Reasons To Adore Opal Brooches

June 02, 2007 By: admin Category: Brooch Appraisals No Comments →

A superb and beneficial appendage to any collection of brooches is an opal gemstone.

Opal JewelryOpal: Advanced Cutting & Setting (Jewelry Crafts)

Price: $14.99 USD

Opals are wonderfully colorful, but if you do not know how to care for them you will not have a handsome piece for long! There are many things to recall about opal brooches.

The stones in opal brooches are very colorful, with a distinctive sort of color combination if they are black opals or silvery opals. Either way, opals have a magnificent play of color that seems to be just below the exterior of the stone. The color comes from moistness caught inside the stone.

Quick and Easy Jewelry Appraisals: Yes I know I have been a bit lazy - actually I have been very busy - but that’s another story!

Perhaps GUILTY is more the word I should have used 8)

Gems & Jewelry Appraising: Techniques of Professional Practice

Price: $39.95

You see I wanted to make sure I could Post new information to you guys each and every day. Then that got sidetracked to ‘each and every week’. Well it seems a month has gone by and I have failed you.

Bummer!

But apart from my Day Job (running this website) I also have over 40 other websites I administer and look after. Everything from uploading images to answering questions. But I am also listed on ASK.com (ask the expert) as one of their faculty and have to answer all their queries too.

Phew! No wonder I’m Bushed (No insult to the president intended).

But I promise to lift the game - That is after I finish the current course I am taking (too much) - did you hear my wife speak just then? - spooky isn’t it? :-)

So I hereby promise to make sure this is the number one website in Jewelry Appraisals Online (which it already is BTW) and to create better and better software systems for you all to enjoy when getting your jewelry appraised.

So let’s start with one GREAT tip…
