Use the free screenerThe quick answer
A free ring appraisal app is useful for triage: ring type, metal marks, visible stones, maker or designer clues, damage, and whether a paid appraisal is sensible. It cannot guarantee diamond grade, gemstone identity, karat, or insurance value from photos alone.
Ring screening checklist
- Metal marks: 10k, 14k, 18k, 22k, 585, 750, platinum, PT, sterling, or maker stamps inside the band.
- Stone evidence: diamond, colored stone, pearl, synthetic, missing stone, chips, abrasions, and side stones.
- Ring type: engagement, wedding, class, signet, cocktail, eternity, antique, mourning, or designer ring.
- Condition: worn prongs, resizing, cracks, solder marks, bent shank, broken setting, and old repairs.
- Context: boxes, certificates, receipts, family notes, old appraisals, and insurance schedules.

FAQ
Can photos prove a diamond ring is real?
No. Photos can support triage, but diamond testing or certification may be needed.
Is a ring worth only metal weight?
Not always. Stones, maker, design, age, condition, and demand can exceed melt value.
Should I resize or repair a ring before appraisal?
No. Photograph it as-is first. Repairs can change value and hide evidence.
Found an old item and want to know if it matters?
Upload photos. We identify the object, check real sales, and show the right appraisal path.
