Tom Tivol Jewels — Local services in Leawood

I had a family heirloom necklace I wanted to have restored that I took to a number of jewelry stores and nobody would touch it.  A friend of mine suggested I have Tom look at it.  Not only did Tom give me a thorough analysis of the piece - something I had never received before - but he restored it beautifully.  He even went beyond what he said he could do.  I was absolutely amazed.  Even though the necklace wasn't very valuable he told me it was priceless because it was a representation of my family and based on how he treated it was evident he believes that.  I have worked with many jewelers and Tom Tivol is not only clearly an expert at his craft, he is one of the most sincere and thoughtful people I have ever done...

When I saw my fiancé's shoulders finally relax after our convo with Tom I knew that this was our guy lol. If you want a quality work of art that is reasonably priced then come visit Tom Tivol. You will not be...

Here is why Tom Tivol stood out far above a few other (appraisers) I had contacted.

Tom promptly returned my email and we were able to set up an appointment. He -listened- to what I needed, and what I needed was a description on a piece to be willed to beneficiaries. Tom not only provided the documentation (received by mail a few days later), he provided additional information for the piece for insurance, trade, or resale purposes (should the owner decide to go that route). There was even a grading chart (applicable to the piece) included with explanations.

Tom, thank you for your expertise, knowledge and...
