Background to Heritage in France
In France, the inheritance system is governed by the Civil Code. Under French law, a portion of the inheritance (the "réserve héréditaire") must be bequeathed to the "heirs réservataires", i.e. the children of the deceased. The remainder of the inheritance, known as the quotité disponible, can be bequeathed to anyone of the deceased's choice. So, if you have inherited a piece of jewelry, it is probably part of the available portion of the inheritance.
Selling an Inherited Jewel
If you decide to sell an inherited piece of jewelry, it's important to consider a number of factors. First of all, make sure that the jewelry legally belongs to you. If the jewel is part of an estate, make sure that the estate has been settled in accordance with the law. Next, have the jewelry appraised by a professional to determine its true value. Finally, decide whether you wish to sell the jewel to a professional or auction it off. In all cases, it's important to work with trusted professionals who will offer you a fair and transparent appraisal of your jewelry.
