As an American Gem Society (AGS) certified gemologist appraiser (CGA), Padis Jewelry offers accurate and fair jewelry appraisal San Francisco area clients rely on. Family-owned and operated, we have been a trusted name in the area since 1974 and are pleased to provide meticulous jewelry appraisals along with our other services.
Why do you need a jewelry appraisal? An appraisal is almost always required to attain replacement insurance as well as used in estate planning and tax purposes. Additionally, an appraisal is the best way to find out the actual value of a family heirloom, or can be used to guide the fair distribution of jewelry assets.
It is important to remember that the value of jewelry changes though time and an up-to-date jewelry appraisal may offer a pleasant surprise when you see how much a piece has appreciated. Additionally, it ensures the piece is adequately insured. It is recommended that you have your jewelry appraised every three to five years.
We are proud to be a part of the AGS (only 5% of jewelers in the U.S. meet the exacting standards), which is not only dedicated to consumer protection and ethical practices, but rigorously trains and certifies the best jewelry appraisers in the industry. Along with our certified jewelry appraisers, Padis Jewelry’s non-commission staff is made up of two GIA Graduate Gemologists at all times. Our services also include an in-house bench jeweler for same-day repairs and settings.
With showrooms at the Gift Center and the Jewelry Center in San Francisco, along with a store in St. Helena CA in the Napa Valley, our intimate, welcoming showrooms openly display our stunning collection. Please contact us, or use the guest pass information to arrange a visit.
