Lee Drexler is the real thing. She knows her antiques cold, including jewelry-she has a special separate certification for gem stones. Try to get her talking a bit about all the super-famous and wealthy clients she has worked with.but don't expect personal details from this most discreet of appraisers! And be assured that any number of valuable properties she has appraised end up at prestigious auction houses.

My personal appraising experiences with Lee include her challenge of evaluating my husband's amazing collection of over six hundred trumpets and cornets. Lastly, she is super-organized so you are guaranteed a speedy turnaround and impeccable documentation in a most professional final document. I would use her services again- in fact, I have.

Lee Drexler appraised the Estate of my late Mother, which included art, furniture and jewelry. Lee was highly professional, extremely knowledgeable in each field, efficient and a complete pleasure to work with. I have recommended her to friends who have also been very pleased and continue to recommend her without hesitation or reservation!

I was looking to get a 300 year old antique piece appraised and I called the woman who runs this business to ask about getting an appointment set up. She responded "I charge $850 per hour" and hung up on me.

I sold my grandmother's estate and art pieces. Lee was so amazing to talk to. My family recommend her for all your appraisals.
