DESCRIPTION OF LOTS
GWAA IS NOT A JEWELRY STORE and GWAA does not provide any gemological evaluation and/or analysis of mounted or un-mounted stones, finished or unfinished jewelry. GWAA solely relies on the item descriptions provided by its Consignor's and Gemological Laboratories. Item descriptions only represent an average material use by the Consignor(s), Gemological Laboratories and in no way or case shall GWAA or its Consigner(s), Gemological Laboratories be held responsible for any inaccuracies or differences which could occur by examination of the item by other Gemological Laboratories or other experts in the field of grading gemstones and jewelry. GWAA or its Consignor(s) are not responsible for errors and omissions in the description, glossary, or any supplemental material. The descriptions and any amendments thereto reflect GWAA's Consignor's sole opinion of the item(s) being auctioned. All property is sold AS IS without any representations or warranties by GWAA as to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, the correctness of the information or other description of the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, exhibitions, literature or historical relevance of any property and no statement anywhere, whether oral or written, whether made in the auction ad, an advertisement, a bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, or elsewhere, shall be deemed such a warranty, representation or assumption of liability. GWAA makes no representations and warranties, express or implied, as to whether the Buyer acquires any copyrights, including but not limited to, any reproduction rights in any property. GWAA is not responsible for errors and omissions in the description, glossary, or any supplemental material.

ESTIMATES
The replacement values quoted are for insurance purposes only and shall not be considered as the actual value of the item. Please remember that jewelry/gemstone evaluation, analysis and appraisals are extremely subjective, and therefore an estimate of the insurance replacement value may vary from one appraiser to another and such a variance does not necessarily constitute an error on the part of any appraiser.
