    $20,000 for a TIFFANY collectible, that's design still holds up 100 years later, with a YELLOW diamond, nobody rocked colored diamonds back then!
    Collectors of Jewelry, Tiffany's, and art collectors would pay over $100,000 for this, if not more!

      I paid €330 for a bracelet made by tiffany out of silver. This is tiffany at it's best with history and rarity. Definitely a very low estimate.

      I have been collecting tiffany for awhile. I would 100% pay 50 to 60k. however, I wouldn't be able to pay more... mostly because I don't have more $$$ right now. Gotta love being broke.

    • @merk9569
      @merk9569 Před 5 lety +14

      Arialle Lee I am definitely not an expert but one of my hobbies is watching videos of high end jewelry. I think some are real works of art. Many of the jewels I have seen have fancy colored diamonds. I agree with you and others... the diamond alone is worth way more than $20K. Since it is in a vintageTiffany piece, 100 years old, with known provenance I wouldn’t be at all surprised if it is valued in the hundred (s) of thousand dollars. Nice nest egg!

    If that piece dates from the 1900 to early 1929’s Tiffany’s then there is a big chance it came from the LCT era. Moreover Tiffany’s most famous diamond is the yellow Tiffany Diamond. A hideous LCT black opal pendant sold for a $100k, that was also a Roadshow find. This would go for $200k easily.

    Rick Harrison: Best I can do is 5 bucks, and that's taking a huge risk.

    If it was me I would get every cent that I could possibly get from it and enjoy my life and my family for them to draw their life as well I guess that's what her mother left at for.

    This woman is liar... horrible appraisal.
    Poor old lady, she believed her.
    Well the old lady kept saying i did not believe my grandma....I don’t know...I don’t think it is diamond....bla bla...!
    Shut up lady and say it is very precious to me and I think it has a great value....etc
    And this terrible appraiser took advantage of the ignorance of the old lady.
    This pendant is worth $350,000 and even more.

    often people seem so ungrateful to the people that left these things to them, I feel as if she didn't know or didn't like her grandmother.

    More like 60k-80k.bit this looks like an older video so 20k might have been accurate in the 90’s for example.

    why would you put a solid golden frame around a yellow diamond? really muddies up the whole thing and can barely tell whats in the middle
