Welcome to Good Khin Gems, LLC
Giving Value to your Valuables with Excellence and Integrity
Your Jewelry Has a Story. Khin Goodkin Helps You Understand Its Value.
When you bring a piece of jewelry to Khin Goodkin, you’re not just getting a dollar figure. You’re getting the answer to the questions that actually matter — what is this piece really worth, what’s it made of, and what should you do with it?
Khin is a Graduate Gemologist from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), a Certified Master Appraiser with the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers (NAJA), and an ISG-certified gemologist. Those credentials represent years of study, rigorous testing, and real-world experience that she brings to every appraisal — whether it’s a family heirloom, an insurance appraisal, an estate piece, or something you’re thinking about selling.
Trusted Jewelry Appraisal Expertise
Khin Goodkin brings advanced training, professional credentials, and years of hands-on experience to every jewelry appraisal. Whether evaluating a family heirloom, an insurance item, an estate collection, or a fine gemstone, her goal is simple: help clients clearly understand what they own, what it is made of, and what it may be worth.
Khin holds credentials from some of the most respected institutions in gemology and jewelry appraisal, including a Graduate Gemologist diploma from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), Certified Master Appraiser status through the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers (NAJA), and certification through the International School of Gemology (ISG). These distinctions reflect years of rigorous education, professional training, and real-world experience evaluating fine jewelry and gemstones.
When you are filing an insurance claim, settling an estate, considering a sale, or simply looking for answers about a piece you have owned for years, experience matters. You deserve clear information, honest guidance, and an appraisal you can trust. That is exactly what Khin provides.
Be Confident with Khin
Jewelry appraisals involve real value, important insurance decisions, and often meaningful family history. When you trust someone to evaluate a piece, you deserve confidence that it is being examined by an experienced, qualified professional.
With Khin Goodkin, that confidence comes from expertise, transparency, and professional standards. Her credentials are supported by ongoing education, real-world appraisal experience, and compliance with requirements often required for insurance, estate, legal, and tax-related purposes, including USPAP standards.
Khin believes clients should understand more than just a number on paper. She takes the time to explain what she found, why it matters, and what it means for your piece.
You’ll leave with clarity, confidence, and a deeper understanding of what you own.
Custom Designed Jewelry
Have a piece of jewelry you never wear? A diamond sitting in an outdated setting? An heirloom that carries meaning but no longer feels like your style?
Khin Goodkin helps clients transform existing jewelry into something personal, beautiful, and wearable again.
Working one-on-one with you, Khin can redesign heirloom pieces using your existing stones or help source new diamonds and gemstones to create something entirely unique. Whether modernizing a family piece or designing from the ground up, the goal is the same: create jewelry that feels meaningful, timeless, and truly yours.
From concept to finished piece, Khin works closely with you throughout the design process, helping bring your ideas to life while honoring the story behind the jewelry.

Reach out by phone or email. Khin will walk you through what to bring and what to expect so you're comfortable before you arrive.
STEP TWO

Bring your jewelry, any existing documentation, and your questions. Khin examines each piece carefully and takes the time to explain what she's seeing.
STEP THREE
Receive your certified appraisal
You'll receive a detailed written appraisal document — certified, USPAP-compliant, and accepted by insurance companies, attorneys, and the IRS.
Why Clients Trust Khin Goodkin
Most people are not experts in jewelry appraisal — and they should not have to be. Whether you are insuring a valuable piece, settling an estate, updating an outdated appraisal, or simply looking for answers, Khin takes the time to explain what she sees, what it means, and how value is determined.
Clients leave with more than a detailed written appraisal. They leave with clarity, confidence, and a better understanding of their jewelry.
Khin’s credentials reflect years of advanced education and professional training. As a Graduate Gemologist (GIA), Certified Master Appraiser (NAJA), and ISG-certified gemologist, she adheres to recognized professional standards, including USPAP-compliant appraisal methodology, commonly required for insurance, estate, legal, and tax-related purposes.
Unlike a jewelry store, Khin works as an independent appraiser. That means there is no inventory to sell, no pressure, and no conflict of interest — just an honest, professional evaluation focused entirely on your piece.
Independent expertise. Transparent answers. Appraisals you can trust.
