Sapphire ring apprasial

[Mwhittaker1]

Hello,

I have a custom made sapphire engagement ring that I would like to have appraised. The jeweler is a co-worker's husband and retired (but does work on the side). How will I know an appraiser that is sufficient for appraising a Sapphire?

There's a link to a list of independent appraisers in the drop-down menu that appears when you click the Resources tab near the top of your screen.

If you are in the NYC metro area, I highly recommend David Wolf
