Your jewelry
deserves better than a drawer of appraisals.
Pieces, stones, metals, certificates, appraised values — kept with the piece they belong to. No shoebox. No more hunting for last year's GIA report when the insurance rider is due.
Platinum solitaire · 1.2ct diamond
One record. Every detail of the piece — and the certificate that proves it.
PLATE 01 — GIA CERTPlatinum solitaire · 1.2ct diamond
Snap · Drop · Or scan GIA cert
Frame reads GIA, AGS, and EGL lab reports — stone, carat, cut, color, clarity, and cert number. Edit any field before saving; jeweler appraisal PDFs work too.
02 — Quick add
Snap the appraisal. Frame fills the rest.
Photograph a GIA or AGS lab report and Frame reads it — stone, carat, cut, color, clarity, certificate number. Confirm in two seconds; edit anything that's off. Adding a new piece stops being a 20-minute typing job.
- Reads GIA, AGS, GSI, EGL reports and jeweler appraisal PDFs
- Cert number captured straight from the lab report
03 — Ask Frame
Ask your jewelry box anything. In plain English.
Talk to your collection. Frame answers from your own data — metal, stone, paid, appraised value, last appraisal date — and can act on what it finds. Pull a re-appraisal list, draft a scheduled-items rider, or generate an estate inventory without writing a single formula.
- Filter by anything in your columns — type, stone, metal, value, document age
- Turn answers into actions: appraisal reminders, rider exports, estate lists
04 — Sharing
Insurance-ready links — every appraisal attached.
Send your insurance carrier a read-only schedule of your jewelry, with each appraisal PDF attached to the piece. They can browse and verify — but never edit. Hide pieces below a threshold for a rider quote, show every piece for estate planning, expire the link once the policy renews.
- Per-link visibility: appraisal age, paid price, document attachments
- Revoke or expire any link instantly without affecting your data
Every piece. Every certificate. One view.
Built for how jewelry are actually tracked.
Jewelry valuations are appraisal-driven, not market-driven. Frame tracks acquired date, purchase price, and appraised value separately — because what you paid for an heirloom isn't what it's worth, and insurers care about the latter. The Document field holds the appraisal PDF or GIA certificate. Material and Stone fields capture exactly what's insured.

Common questions.
How often should I re-appraise jewelry?+
Most insurers want appraisals re-done every 3–5 years, especially for diamonds and colored stones where market values shift. Frame tracks the appraisal date — set a reminder when it's been three years to schedule a re-appraisal.
Can I attach GIA or other lab certificates?+
Yes. The Document field accepts any PDF — GIA, AGS, GSI, EGL, or a jeweler's appraisal. Many people attach both: the lab cert plus the appraisal. Both are searchable from the piece's record.
What about pieces I inherited without paperwork?+
Get an appraisal — most jewelers do it for $50–$150 per piece. Attach the resulting appraisal to the Frame record. For pieces under $5K, a written description with photos may be enough for insurance; over $5K, you'll want a formal appraisal.
Will my insurance accept Frame's export for a scheduled-items rider?+
The PDF export includes every piece with its appraised value, attached certificate, and photos. Most insurers accept this directly as the basis for a scheduled-items rider. For very high-value pieces, the carrier may also want a recent appraisal (under 3 years).
How do I track watches separately from other jewelry?+
Frame has a dedicated Watches category for serious watch collectors. For one or two dressier watches mixed into a jewelry collection, you can keep them under Jewelry. For a real watch collection (5+ pieces), use the Watches category — the fields (reference number, movement, year) are built for watches specifically.
