Jenny now that you have an appraisal, it's going to be a lot easier to sell your jewelry. However, good clear photos of the jewelry are still really important if you wish to sell jewelry on-line. I cannot stress the importance of good close-up jewelry photographs enough.
Buy a good book on beginners photography. There is a good book on photographing jewelry from the Antique Jewelry Investor Bookshop. It's called "Photographing Arts, Crafts & Collectibles: Take Great Digital Photos for Portfolios, Documentation, or Selling on the Web" (Paperback) by Steve Meltzer.
You are welcome to post a listing at the jewelry exchange on Antique Jewelry Investor here: Antique Jewelry Exchange
You can also add your listing to the security exchange at WIW2U now that you have a current appraisal. Their link is in the proceeding post.
If you would like to sell to a dealer, select one who specializes in jewelry and who has a good reputation for fair dealing. Most dealers do not like to play a guessing game, so this is where the appraisal comes in, as its a benchmark that helps you and the dealer work out how much you want for your jewelry.
Have in mind that a dealer must buy at a percentage of the price for which he/she expects to sell the jewelry.
Every dealer's percentage and the items they want to buy will vary depending on what they sell best, what they are known for, and what they have buyers for at any given time.
