What Is The Process For Assessing The Value Of Jewelry Offered As Collateral For Loans?

The assessment of jewelry as collateral involves an appraisal by a qualified gemologist or appraiser who examines factors like the metal's purity, gemstone quality, craftsmanship, and market demand. The appraised value, often lower than the jewelry's retail price, determines the loan amount, with lenders typically offering a percentage of the appraised value as a loan.
