Chaya is wonderfully professional and knowledgable. Her affinity to pearls makes it fascinating to learn about. In the past year I have brought her many pearls, my mother and myself have been gifted them throughout the years from family members. What’s real... not all of them. My mother did receive my great aunts pearls. Chaya evaluated that they did not need restringing but then as she came to the end realized the clasp was broken.

If you are apprehensive about taking your jewelry to an appraiser, then this is the place for you to go. To start, my appointment request was responded to in a VERY timely manner, and I did not have to wait long for an appointment. Chaya and her staff were friendly and on time. I had a piece of jewelry I wanted to know more about and Chaya told me more about it in 10 minutes than I ever knew. I was impressed with her knowledge from the start! She went into detail regarding the materials in the piece and answered all of my questions along the way. The different types of appraisals were explained and I was never pressured into having one done. I went ahead with an appraisal and it was done while I sat there watching. I found it to be very interesting. It is obvious that Chaya knows what she is doing, loves jewelry, and genuinely cares about helping people with their items. I highly recommend Carolina Jewelry Appraisers and look forward to...
