Our Story
Twelve years ago, founder Stephen Lott recognized that there as a need he could fill in the appraisal aspect of the jewelry industry. As demand for appraisals increased, appraisers were often bogged down with time-consuming processes and clunky software solutions. Customers had a dissatisfying experience, unsure if their insurance company would accept their appraisal or if they could access the information for future reference.
Mr. Lott built a network of qualified appraisers and partnered with trusted retail stores to create a new program. Then, after recognizing the need for an easy to use and accessible jewelry appraisal software, he developed The Loupe. Through The Loupe, appraisers can create professional jewelry appraisals anytime, anywhere, and from any computer or devices. Now, Heritage Appraisers performs over 30,000 jewelry appraisals for customers throughout the country each year using The Loupe.

- Allows appraisals to be accessible online for both appraisers and customers at any time, location, and from any device.
