Karen's Column

Thanks to everyone who attended our annual sale: many beautiful pieces found loving homes. Now, for all of you who own beautiful pieces, (my work or not), here's a good piece of advice: Check the dates on your jewelry insurance appraisals. If you haven't had your jewelry reappraised lately, it's important to do so now!
Precious metal prices have soared, the dollar has dropped, and increases in labor and energy costs have resulted in drastic increases in the replacement value of jewelry purchased even a few years ago. A gold necklace which cost $4000 in 2005 would cost nearly $9000 to replace today. You could receive just a fraction of the actual replacement cost should your jewelry be lost or stolen. Don't leave yourself vulnerable. A professional appraisal is well worth the protection.
Going on vacation? Give your jewelry the SPA treatment: we can clean, inspect, appraise, and repair it while you're gone!
