We had no idea what our jewelry was worth that I inherited from my grandmother. Gina was able to sort through a bag full of costume and fine jewelry. She saved us a ton of time and money by being able to sort through the items and separate the nicer pieces from costume and only provide valuation opinions on those items. She was also able to find someone who wanted to purchase a couple items. She was fast, accommodating and always kept us in the loop every step of the way. We felt so at ease.

Gem Facets made what was a bad situation after my fiancé lost her ring on a trip better. She worked directly with our insurance company to help provide a LOSS VALUE for our ring and explain to the insurance provider the best solution for a replacement. Now we are using her for all the rest of our watches and my wife’s new ring.

I have a rather large watch collection that needed updated appraisals for insurance. Gina took the time to educate me on the state of the watch market as well as the appraisals for my watches. During the authentication process, Gina found one of my watches was not real. I had no idea!! She also put me in touch with several watch buyers and I was able to sell a few of them for a large profit.

I highly recommend GEM FACETS for the appraisal of my mother’s estate jewelry. Her professionalism made a sad time less painful. Actually, it was a wonderful experience. She has a kind nature and provides results after studying the jewelry swiftly but thoroughly. She was constantly in touch to answer any questions that arose and continued to update her progress. She provided a table of contents for every piece of jewelry, the Estimated Fair Market Value as well as photos and prices for each piece of jewelry. She has an exceptional work ethic and was focused to keep the appraisal concise and made sure that money wasn’t wasted on non-essential items. I appreciate her compassionate manner. I intend to use her services of appraisal in the future.

We are estate attorneys and found Gina through another client. She helped us work through a probate estate quickly and provided expert knowledge about provenance, authentication of a couple pieces, and worked on some other personal property like coins and sculpture. She was diligent in her reporting and her report was the most impressive I have seen amongst personal property appraisers. We will definitely use Gem Facets for all our client’s needs.

Gina is every lawyer and insurance provider’s dream. Her super efficient, professional and organized demeanor saved our client tens of thousands of dollars in tax savings. She was hired to evaluate and place a fair market value on a large estate for one of our clients. She was extremely knowledgable, professional and diligent about meeting deadlines and providing a superb detailed report for our probate needs. She even made recommendations on best places to liquidate the jewelry to get the best return for our client. She personally also was able to sell several pieces to her private network which resulted in more money to our clients. Highly recommend her to any other estate lawyers, accountants, family lawyers and insurance carriers.

I was an appraisal client of Gina’s at first, but because I trusted what she did for me, and the transparency of what she does, I used her to get several new diamond pieces, including earrings, tennis bracelet and upgraded my engagement ring. The best part, she shared with me her cost invoice and added a modest commission to it. Saved me over 30% off retail prices!!!
