If you need to get your fine jewelry appraised for insurance purposes, Colucci's Jewelers can help.
It's a great idea to get your jewelry appraised periodically. As the years pass along, the value of your precious metals and gemstones can fluctuate. If your last appraisal was more than two years ago, you could run into problems with your insurance coverage. If your jewelry is insured for less than its replacement value, you could lose a substantial amount of money if it is stolen or lost.
To help prevent situations like this from happening, our on-site jeweler Stefan Colucci will provide you with an up-to-date appraisal report based on your jewelry's current market value. That way, you can update your insurance accordingly.
We also specialize in estate jewelry appraisals, so you know exactly how much your old jewelry is worth if you are thinking of selling.
Our appraisal services include:
Selling jewelry from years past can be a hard experience. Estate jewelry, in particular, can have sentimental value attached and can be hard to sell. This is because jewelry is often a symbol of achievement or affection, such as your class ring from high school or your grandmother's wedding band. At Colucci's Jewelers, we understand the connection to old jewelry and appreciate the memories and value you have with these antique pieces.
In addition to the personal value, antique and estate jewelry can be quite valuable from a monetary standpoint. Estate jewelry is extremely popular in this day and age. Many Lowcountry locals are selling their vintage pieces to trusted jewelry stores near North Charleston, SC, like Colucci's Jewelers.
Many customers choose to sell their jewelry to Colucci's Jewelers because we offer an intimate, honest experience - something that you will certainly not receive if you list your jewelry for sale on an internet marketplace. We will be upfront with you every step of the way to help separate personal value from monetary value, and will present you with a fair offer to consider.
If you are interested in selling your jewelry, we encourage you to visit our showroom to meet our staff and get an accurate appraisal of your jewelry's worth.
We are proud and grateful to have served thousands of customers looking for quality jewelry and a relaxed, no-pressure atmosphere. We would love the opportunity to speak with you face-to-face so that we can learn what you're looking for and what you love about jewelry. Whether you're looking for a custom diamond engagement ring or need friendly advice about what looks right, we are here help.

A Charleston real estate firm has big plans for an aging shopping center on Ashley Phosphate Road, transforming it into a future destination for family entertainment, shopping and dining.
Woodlock Capital is thinking along the lines of Mount Pleasant Towne Centre — if all goes according to plans.
To move the vision forward, the firm has purchased Festival Centre in North Charleston for $21.75 million — its largest acquisition to date. The anchor tenant, an entertainment venue, is already locked in to bring the concept to life.
The high-profile 325,347-square-foot retail property is at 5101 Ashley Phosphate Road in Dorchester County. Woodlock bought it through a new partnership with a Charleston-based private investment group.
“The whole surrounding area is booming and North Charleston is, too,” said Andrew Batkins, a partner at Woodlock Capital. “We had a tenant looking to move into 77,000 square feet and there was an opportunity for us to revitalize the whole center.”
Woodlock secured a lease with ParTee Shack as the future anchor, replacing the large vacancy left by New Spring Church, which last year acquired a nearby shopping center on Dorchester Road for $10 million. The North Carolina entertainment company, which has locations in Raleigh and Greensboro, offers mini golf, go-karts, arcade games and more.
“Whether it’s a hot August day or rainy, it’s a place families can go have fun inside,” Batkins said.
Woodlock is actively in talks with a number of potential tenants to round out the shopping center, including restaurants, coffee shops, apparel stores and pickleball venues that will further drive traffic.
As for structural updates, Batkins for now plans to paint the outparcels and revamp the parking lot to enhance its appeal. He anticipates the overall revitalization taking a few years.
“It’s very early on, but (Towne Centre) is what we’re striving for,” Batkins said, referring to Mount Pleasant's large outdoor mall. “When it’s done, it’s going to look very nice.”
Because Woodlock Capital’s updates are mainly aesthetic, the city halted potential plans to create a special tax district around the project that would have helped fund improvements.

North Charleston representatives, including Mayor Reggie Burgess and strategic adviser Ron Brinson, contemplated the idea after meeting with potential buyers several months ago. Among them was Lowe, the developer that was once involved in the Union Pier Terminal project in downtown Charleston.
“The new buyer didn’t have any immediate plans other than to just wait and see and do some one-off-type renewals,” Brinson said. “So, a special taxing district at that point didn’t make sense.”
He noted that Burgess is still interested in a special taxing incentive for the Festival Centre area, depending on the plans.
“Time will tell,” Brinson said. “It’s an interesting location.”
That location is what’s spurred three tenants this year with a Spinx training office, iHeart CBD and Planet Fitness replacing the Gold's Gym. Other existing retailers include American Freight, Pizza Hut, Day and Night Golf and Neighborhood Tap House.
ParTee Shack owner John Berger is in expansion mode and said he popped down to North Charleston after his market research for ideal locations landed on Festival Centre.
“I see Andy’s vision of making that center under that revitalization project and so we wanted to be a part of that,” Berger said. “There’s not a ton going on in terms of entertainment options over there, so I think we’ll be positioned well.”
Berger’s goal is to begin demolition of the former church space at the end of the year and open the new ParTee Shack venue in the second quarter of 2026.
He and his business partner Jimmy Garcia are currently constructing two more Raleigh venues and Berger plans to move to the Charleston area in the spring to focus on more South Carolina locations.

Woodlock Capital has acquired Festival Centre, a 325,347-square-foot retail property located at 5101 Ashley Phosphate Road in North Charleston, according to a news release. This purchase marks Woodlock’s fifth retail asset in the submarket and further underscores the firm’s commitment to enhancing the retail landscape in North Charleston and the greater Charleston MSA, the release stated.
As part of Woodlock’s broader strategy to expand its portfolio in high-growth markets, Woodlock continues to seek out retail and flex properties across the Southeast, the release stated.
Woodlock Capital plans to implement a comprehensive value-add strategy for Festival Centre, aimed at revitalizing the property and enhancing its appeal to both tenants and the community, the release stated. As part of this strategy, the company has already secured the family amusement tenant, Partee Shack, which will occupy 77,000 square feet and will be the center’s new anchor tenant.
The current tenant lineup at Festival includes well-known tenants such as Planet Fitness, American Freight, Pizza Hut, Day and Night Golf, and Neighborhood Tap House. Woodlock is also in active discussions with several potential tenants, including restaurant, apparel, furniture and even pickleball users, the release stated.

The property is being acquired through a new partnership between Woodlock Capital and a Charleston-based private investment group, according to the release. The collective ownership group brings deep ties and significant investment experience in the Charleston real estate market, the release stated.
Established in 2020 by partners Elliot Calhoun and Andrew Batkins, Woodlock focuses on acquiring value-add retail, flex industrial, and covered land properties in the greater Charleston MSA, according to the release. Since its inception, Woodlock has completed over $300 million worth of transactions and has established strong relationships with local, regional, and institutional groups along the coast.
