How Our In-Person Value Assessments Work?

Our in-person market value assessment includes inspection of stone quality, metal content, and current market pricing, but does not produce an official appraisal document

• Gemstone carat weight, colour, clarity, and cut 
• Metal type and weight (gold, platinum, etc.) 
• Brand or designer information (if applicable) 
• Market-based valuation with resale or replacement cost 

Unlike generic or verbal evaluations, certified appraisals are written by trained professionals and are often required for:

• Insurance coverage 
• Resale or consignment 
• Legal estate or divorce settlements 
• Asset documentation for tax or personal records

Cape Town Jewellery Appraisals You Can Trust

We understand that jewellery often holds emotional as well as monetary value. At Anthony Alan, clients across Cape Town choose us for our:

• Permanent presence — always open, never seasonal 
• Transparent pricing — based on real-time market conditions 
• Professionalism — no pressure, just honest advice 
• Confidential service — your privacy is always respected 

Whether you’re updating your insurance policy or preparing for resale, you need a partner who will value your pieces fairly—and treat you with integrity.

Why Certification Matters

Selling or insuring your jewellery without a certified appraisal can cost you significantly. Online calculators and quick estimators fail to consider:

• Actual condition and wear 
• Provenance or brand reputation 
• Cut quality and stone rarity 
• Current resale demand in South Africa 

At Anthony Alan, our appraisers use methodical, repeatable evaluation criteria, ensuring your report stands up to scrutiny with insurers, buyers, and legal professionals alike.
