Magnificently, Katy is extremely knowledgable, professional, and skilled in her art. She takes her time to answer your questions and thoroughly explains the appraisal process to you. If for some reason there is a delay in providing your appraisal by the day promised, Katy promptly notifies you and explains in detail what she is looking or waking for to compete your appraisal. I am such a satisfied customer, this is my second time visiting Katy. I had no idea how to select an appraiser, and KB Gem came highly recommended from a friend who has used their services many times.

Katy performed an insurance appraisal on a ring and was extremely pleased with her work. I subsequently had her appraise a second piece and was equally pleased. The pieces were analyzed in my presence and the written appraisal provided to me approximately a week later after she performed a thorough market analysis. Every part of the process was professionally handled and she would be my first choice should I require appraisal services in the future.

Katy was wonderful! I was looking for a qualified jewelry appraiser who wasn't affiliated with a jewelry store, and found Katy's website. I contacted her and she quickly replied. We set up an appointment and she gathered some preliminary information to confirm my rate for the appraisal. On the day of the appointment, Katy gave the option to sit with her so that the ring would never leave my sight. The appraisal was completed within an hour, and Katy started working on the written report. That document was finished within one week, and I am very pleased with the detail included. Katy has been so quick to reply to all of my emails, and is very polite and professional. I highly recommend her jewelry appraisal services.

Katy was wonderful--very professional and thorough and provided a very detailed report on all three pieces that she had appraised. She was informative and prompt and delivered the report when she promised it. She was very helpful and I would highly recommend her any time.

I was looking for a service that was unbiased and had no interest in making an offer to purchase my jewelry to assure that the appraisal was accurate. The service that Katy was exactly what I was looking for, professional, thorough, and gave detailed characteristics of my piece to support the resulting value estimate. I was very pleased with final report.
