I created this course because in my years of one-on-one appraisal work I kept seeing the same frustrations among my clients.

They were feeling overwhelmed by their silver, were unsure of what they had, and were scared of giving away something valuable because they couldn't identify what they have.

SILVER 101 is based on the process I developed and use with my appraisal clients to help them learn how to sort and identify their silver so they can move forward making decisions about what to do with it empowered with their newly-gleaned information about that they have.

I've now taken this process out of my clients' dining rooms and transformed it into an online course curriculum so I can make the content accessible to the maximum number of people who can be helped by it.

You will learn:

-How to distinguish between sterling silver & silverplate and identify what you have

-How to read silver hallmarks and identify your pieces

-The history of sterling silver and silverplate

-Differences among international marks and commonly encountered marks

-How to safely store your sterling silver and silverplate

SILVER 101 is self-paced, available anywhere in the world, and intentionally designed to suit multiple learning styles (audio and visual learners) and individuals with different levels of access to hearing and sight. I’ve included some still shots of the course below so you can get a sense of my aesthetic and approach to content to help you see if it would be a good fit for you.
