Important diamonds and jewels
A high-value asset can carry different values depending on why the valuation is required. A professional report should therefore avoid presenting one figure as universally applicable.
A lender-focused assessment may consider current market evidence, rarity, liquidity, sale channels, transaction costs, certification, condition and realistic realization circumstances. Where requested, a report can distinguish market value from a more conservative collateral or orderly-realization perspective.
Valuations may assist executors, heirs, advisers and fiduciaries in documenting jewelry, diamonds and gemstone holdings for estate administration, inheritance discussions, succession planning or equitable allocation. Tax or statutory values remain subject to the relevant jurisdiction and professional instructions.
Independent asset descriptions and value opinions may support lawyers, fiduciaries and parties dealing with ownership, division, settlement or dispute matters. Such work remains within the value’s field of expertise and is not legal advice.
Depending on the mandate, a valuation may address replacement considerations, collection documentation, acquisition or disposal review, private-wealth records, family-office reporting or portfolio monitoring. This technical expertise allows us to provide an informed and independent assessment of important diamonds and exceptional gemstones, combining gemological observation with a practical understanding of the material itself.
Fancy color diamonds require a highly specialized approach. Their value is determined not only by carat weight and clarity, but also by the strength, distribution and character of their color, together with rarity, provenance, cut and overall visual presence.Our expertise encompasses the evaluation of natural fancy color diamonds and the analysis of polishing strategies designed to reveal or enhance their natural color while preserving the integrity and value of the stone
Our experience in diamond polishing provides a cutter's perspective that is particularly valuable when examining important or unusual stones. We assess existing proportions, facet configuration, optical behavior and potential recutting or repolishing considerations where appropriate. This combination of craftsmanship and technical analysis provides a deeper understanding of a diamond than conventional grading information alone.
