Fine Jewelry Appraisal, Evaluation, Consignment, Purchase, and Custom Design & Repair
I founded EMS Estates in 2015 to provide a knowledgeable and personal approach to appraising and selling fine jewelry. Jewelry can hold precious memories and sentimental value for us and it’s important that the appraiser evaluating your jewelry not only has the qualifications to appraise it but understands the history and context behind each piece.
Selling jewelry can be a very emotional decision. EMS Estates provides a private, judgement-free environment to have your jewelry appraised or evaluated to buy it directly or sell on consignment. At EMS Estates I will treat you and your fine jewelry with the respect and expertise that you deserve.

What’s the Right Choice?
Consignment
Great option for pieces with good resale value and you’re not in a hurry. You will get the maximum value for your pieces within your timeframe.
Professional evaluation and analysis of your piece(s) to determine the likely resale value range.
- Choose the right audience
- Obtain multiple bids
- Highest amount possible
- Can take time to close
For clients that do not need cash immediately, jewelry consignment can often yield the most value.
Purchase
Best option for items with a lower resale value or in need of repair or attention. You will receive the best, no obligation, offer for immediate cash.
We go through your items together and identify the gemstones and/or metals used to create the pieces and their condition to determine their value.
- You receive immediate payment
- EMS remarkets as estate pieces
- Offered to a wide audience
Easy, painless option for clients with unwanted jewelry just sitting in a box or drawer.
You’ll have the information you need to feel good about your decisions.

My Story
I founded EMS Estates because I know how confusing the jewelry business can be. Years ago I needed to sell jewelry to pay tuition. The idea made me nervous because the process seemed mysterious. I didn’t know what to expect. I started this company to help guide others through appraising, selling, or consigning their jewelry.
