AGA specializes in the appraisal and authentication of fine jewelry and diamonds. We deliver precise, defensible valuations trusted by wholesalers, retailers, and private clients across the United States.
Every item undergoes a thorough inspection by our GIA-trained gemologists. We evaluate metal composition, hallmark verification, stone identification, carat weight, color and clarity grading, cut assessment, and overall condition, identifying treatments, alterations, and authenticity markers.
Every AGA appraisal includes a professionally prepared certificate registered in the AGA database and embedded with a unique QR code, allowing insurers, buyers, and owners to instantly verify authenticity, grading data, and appraised value from any device.
AGA certificates are recognized by major U.S. insurance carriers for jewelry scheduling, claims processing, and replacement coverage. Our reports are also suitable for estate settlements, resale, charitable donations, and legal proceedings.
AGA operates exclusively as an independent appraisal service. We do not purchase, sell, or broker jewelry or gemstones, ensuring complete objectivity in every valuation. All reports are prepared by credentialed gemologists free from any conflict of interest.
