Visual estimate, not authentication
The report separates visible evidence from what requires physical testing.
Inherited jewelry is a common reason people start
Know what to document, test, keep, appraise, or sell.
How it works
From photograph to useful next step
The goal is not fake certainty. It is to turn visible clues into a better research, care, selling, or appraisal decision.
2. Review clues and confidence
See likely materials, gemstones, style, period, condition, and the observations behind the result.
3. Choose the next step
Save the report, improve the scan, care for the piece, or bring the right questions to a jeweler or appraiser.

Not a laboratory or appraisal
A photograph cannot prove natural versus synthetic stones, treatments, exact purity, weight, provenance, or hidden damage. It also cannot establish insurance replacement value or guarantee a selling price.

“This is the best jewelry ID app I’ve found. As a male dealer, my knowledge of what jewelry styles are called or names of gem cuts is poor, and providing that description based on photos is the key value I get out of the app.”

Straight answers
What photo identification can—and cannot—do
What can Jewelry Identifier tell me from a photo?
It can provide a first-pass identification, likely materials and gemstones, visible hallmark clues, style or period suggestions, condition observations, care guidance, and a broad estimated value range when the images provide enough evidence.
Does the app authenticate or professionally appraise jewelry?
No. Photo analysis cannot confirm gemstone treatments, exact metal composition, weight, provenance, or hidden damage. Jewelry Identifier is a research and triage tool; use a qualified gemologist or appraiser for high-value decisions.
How do I get a better identification?
Use bright indirect light, fill the frame with one piece, avoid digital zoom, and photograph multiple angles in the iPhone app. Add a close-up of any hallmark, clasp, setting, or maker’s mark.
Is there a free web jewelry identifier?
Yes. The website provides a limited one-photo preview with bot and usage limits. The iPhone app adds multi-angle scans, saved collections, follow-up questions, care tools, and rescanning.
Are photos stored by Jewelry Identifier?
The web preview processes the image in server memory and does not write the photo or result to Jewelry Identifier storage. The image is sent to our AI processor for analysis under the processor’s data-handling terms. See the Privacy Policy for details.
