CM Woolford is a website-backed, unclaimed FAIR profile in Richmond, VA. FAIR lists Fine Art, Antiques and Personal Property, Jewelry, Estate Appraisals, Fine art, Antiques, Jewelry, Estate, Insurance, and estate/probate plus insurance routing signals. FAIR shows no separate credential field, no fee statement, no USPAP education detail in the registry field, and no claimed profile control. The source URL redirects to cmwoolford.com, where C.M. Woolford describes itself as an appraiser and broker of fine jewelry, gemstones, and watches. The home page says Christina "Nina" Woolford established the Richmond service in 1989 as a gem, jewelry, and watch appraisal service; it now says she focuses on estate and resale appraisals and resale brokerage. The estate/trust page describes distribution, resale, and cash-conversion appraisals for estate inventory and settlement. The insurance page says insurance appraisals are not being offered at this time, though prior insurance appraisals may be converted into estate valuation or cash-conversion work. Brokerage and consultation pages describe resale opinions, item separation, gemstone identification, laboratory workup, and selling assistance for jewelry, gemstones, and watches. The qualifications page lists Christina Woolford, MGA, ASA, GG, AGA/GIA credentials and appraisal training including USPAP coursework. Use this profile as a Richmond comparison lead for jewelry, gemstone, watch, estate, resale, and consultation questions while confirming scope, report purpose, inspection process, fees, and insurance-appraisal availability.
Member-owned evidence supports jewelry, gemstones, watches, estate inventory/settlement, resale/cash-conversion appraisals, resale brokerage, consultation, item separation, gemstone identification, and laboratory workup. FAIR also lists Fine Art and Antiques/Personal Property, but the member site is jewelry/gem/watch-centered. The site says insurance appraisals are not currently offered; confirm any insurance-related need directly.
Before outreach, state whether the need is estate inventory, estate settlement, resale, cash conversion, consultation, item separation, gemstone identification, prior-insurance-appraisal conversion, or another report purpose. Prepare photos, item lists, marks, lab reports, prior appraisals, receipts, condition notes, provenance, deadlines, and ownership context. Ask about fees, timing, inspection, and brokerage conflicts before proceeding.
