Why get an estimate and an appraisal?
A jewel also tells a story.
It can accompany an inheritance. Protect what cannot be replaced. Prepare for a sale. Or become wearable again, in a different way. Valuing it brings clarity. To its worth. And to what one does with it next.
Our gaze
Some appraisals are carried out at the Salon, in a confidential setting and by appointment. Others can begin remotely, thanks to an initial video exchange.
Whether you want to understand the value of a piece of jewelry, prepare for an inheritance, consider a sale, or simply get an expert opinion, our teams will support you with the same high standards.
A simple, confidential process, in four stages.
No pressure. No surprises.
No commitment · Response within 72h · Throughout France & worldwide.
The questionnaire
Each request begins with a questionnaire accompanied by a few photographs of your room.
The meeting
An initial contact, often by video call. You tell us about your piece of jewelry. We lay the groundwork.
The expertise
In salon or at home. Complete analysis of the room, in detail.
The estimate
We are drafting our report. You are free to choose the next step: keep, transmit, transform, sell.
When to call on us?
Behind every piece of jewelry, there's a story. Yours.
An inheritance to organize. A piece to protect. A desire to sell. To transform in order to love it more. Or just curiosity. We adapt to your situation, at your pace. We address all situations, all women. Without judgment, with fairness.
Types of expertise
A first chat. No pressure.
At the showroom
From €150
Our expert gemologists examine your jewelry under a magnifying glass: type of stones, weight, metal, era, and possible signature. A precise, confidential, and immediate evaluation to determine the true value of your pieces. By appointment only.
At home or at the bank
From €500
We come to your home, discreetly. A professional eye, a delicate approach... to estimate, share, envisage. Because knowing is already beginning to transmit.
The Showroom
Each appraisal begins with a questionnaire and an analysis of the initial information you provide. This preparation allows our teams to approach each piece with the attention it deserves.
The meeting then continues at the Showroom or remotely, in a confidential and personalized setting.
Include text details
Include text details
Use text paired with images or videos to create a captivating brand story, explain details of your products, or highlight store promotions.
Link to a collection
Every coin deserves to be understood. Sometimes to be kept. Sometimes to be circulated. In all cases, to be regarded as it deserves.
All questions are legitimate.
Three ways:
- at the Showroom (Paris 9th, by appointment),
- at your home (we come to you),
- remotely (high-resolution photos analyzed within 48 hours).
The estimate is non-binding. LH Club members receive a priority response within 24 hours.
An estimate gives a quick market value of what your jewel can reasonably fetch on the current market.
An appraisal is a more in-depth, certified report: it includes an analysis of hallmarks, metal, gemstones, condition, and provenance. It is often required for inheritances, insurance, or donations.
We will guide you to the format that best suits your situation.
In-showroom valuations start at €150.
In-home valuations start at €500.
Always. No information about your identity, your jewelry, or the transaction amount is shared or made public.
Our exchanges remain strictly private; this is a non-negotiable condition of our approach.
All fine jewelry items:
- rings,
- necklaces,
- bracelets,
- brooches,
- watches,
- sets.
We have particular expertise in major brands such as Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Chaumet, Bulgari, Chanel, Boucheron, as well as in estate pieces and private collections.
