Antique jewelry appraiser qualifications

I’m sure someone on this forum knows the answer to this question,
although I did not: What kind of education does one need to be an
appraiser for antique jewelry? I know that the auction houses such as

what they have to do to qualify for such a position.

I suggest you look up the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers
for their (NAJA).

A degree in gemology is probably essential.

good luck!

GIA GG, Appraiser training from ISA or ASA, USPAP a bonus, plus
experience in antique.
