Get Jewelry Answers | Costume, Silver, Gold, Pearls, Diamonds, Marks, Gemstones by Expert Dr. Lori 

I clean at condos and a lot of times people give me pieces of furniture or clothing one time this Lady gave me a end table and I got it down to my car and put it in and when I was putting it in I heard something rattling it was a box just like a old sewing box I opened it up there were two canary diamonds and these were not fake I looked at them and several other pieces of heirloom jewelry I brought it back up to the lady and I said have you been looking for something lately and she said no not that I can think of and I said nothing that you can think of and she said no she was elder and I popped it around for my back and said you mean you haven't been looking for this and she was so excited She says oh my gosh yes I have I thought I'd lost it I said well it was in the bottom of the end table it was such a good feeling to find something that someone had thought they'd lost and then have it returned.

I love the outfit color, the embellished sweater and jewelry you wore for this video. The bling was fantastic and the nail polish was 10+++. I love listening to all your knowledge that you share.

I think besides your knowledge and education, you are quite engaging as a shoppers. You have the pizazz that keeps your audience engaged. Thank you for your show .

Hi,Dr. Lori. I have been listening to you every day. Love to listen to you about different items. Learning a lot. New at this. Into paintings,glass and pottery. Thanks for being you.

Ugh! My father was a jeweler…47th St Jewelry district in NYC. He taught me to turn my nose up at “yellow diamonds.” When I saw ads for “chocolate diamonds,” I almost gagged!

I vote for a Day In The Life & team video too!! Thanks for all of your knowledge.

I love all your videos but jewellery is my special interest. Thanks for sharing your expertise and making it so interesting.

I love mine cut diamonds. It’s nice to know when buying these older pieces how much love when into these keeping them Around and it’s a relief to know they aren’t blood diamonds.

Dr. Lori, you are better than all of the internet search engines!!!!!!!!! Thank you a million!!!

Dr. Lori, I discovered your site this week and just devouring everything you say. I have just started posting some estate jewelry for a friend and your teaching is invaluable. I've sorted by signature and just sold a gorgeous Ciner basketweave choker, bracelet and earrings for $250!! I had posted it for $325, but took the offer because it was Christmas week. The buyer was thrilled and so was I.

So many on line sellers think CRAZING IS valuable.

Bought 2 loops, measuring tape & diamond tester from your website. Ty!

very helpful I found some real pearls and fake pearls. I gave them both to my granddaughter.

You have given me some wonderful advise. Thank you.

A plethora of knowledge and personality 👍🏻

I just found a 18k gold, diamond and ruby necklace $1.99 at a thrift store. I know it’s diamonds became of your diamond tester ( Thank you!) I need you to tell me it’s worth:)

Dr. Lori, what exactly is Rhodium?! Is it a better plating than all of the others to present? It's basically on almost all silver now days! Thank you and I have learned so very much from you over the few years I've known you

Hi, Dr. Lori. I find your videos so valuable and informative. Thank you so much. How much would a ring (that looks like a diamond ring) that says 18kt H.G.E on the inside of it be worth?

On the pearls, what does the individual knot mean?

ABSOLUTELY sit down to clean jewelry. I was cleaning a pair of vintage Eisenberg crystal earrings, dropped one in the sink and broke a crystal. Yes, I cried. 😭

This is a great one! Thank you

I love jewelry. All kinds. I have a few pieces that are family jewelry past down to me. I have great great g mother’s wedding band and my great aunts diamonds. I was named after both. Another aunts sapphire ring and grandmother’s ruby. I love them all. My only child isn’t into jewelry so much. Lol

What is the thin metal gold colored does not stick to magnet doesn't really tarnish

What type of adhesive should be used when replacing missing rhinestones?

January and garnet. Wow. I never have been much into astrology. There does seem to be a few general characteristics. A lot like jewelry, no absolute rules and anything is Possible not probable but possible. Quite eccentric a little outspoken and up front and transparent. That’s my personality. Sound familiar? Still my hero.

Love your sweater, Dr. Lori! You look gorgeous as always! Thank you for explaining the differences in jewelry marks, makers, types, materials, colors, etc! This is very helpful. I'm getting some artwork together so I can get your expertise. I have 2 large paintings and they're both old, and very old. Can't wait to actually talk to you!! Love you, Dr. Lori!!❤

Dr, Lori My husband bought me a pair of black pearl and gold earrings in 1980 from Tahiti do you think they would be valuable

Dr. Lori, I have been watching as many of your videos as I can while I sit with my mama who has had a severe stroke. I love vintage jewelry and am curious; how do you tell the difference between Bakelite, Amber, Coral, and plastics? I really want to learn to recognize the difference and be a smart shopper and collector. Thank you and God bless you for helping so many learn the ropes.

Dr. Lori never explained what gold-filled was, in the question "what's the difference between gold filled and gold plate"?

I have a gold filled bangle...a jeweller said its an. Antique 150-200 years old...no markings on the bangle it's either Asian or indian

MO 925 knotted pearls who is MO?

How can I contact you ? I can’t seem to get online in time to catch you live. I’ve got two estate inheritances that have many many beautiful costume jewelry pieces and I’m convinced some are going to sell well. Of course, I’m no expert so I could be completely wrong...

Love watching your videos! You’re amazing! ❤

i have a custom necklace gold tone in the clasp has omega symbol ? i don’t know if is expensive or not ?

What about untreated black opal? I’m seeing beautiful pieces lately.. thank you for your knowledge ❤

Is costume jewelry with no markings worthless?
