If the bracelets are real ivory, Google how to tell,they are worth quite a bit as it's been a long time since it's been legal to bring it into the U.S..
Do not accept any value as the true value if a jeweler values the piece for you and then offers to buy it from you. That offer will be much lower than the real value. Try contacting your insurance company and ask if they know any jewelery appraisers in this area, also check with the National Association of Jewlery Appraisers or the International Society of Appraisers. A good, reputable jewlery store in Orlando, Mayors Jewelers, try calling them and see if they can appraise it for you or know a reputable appraiser in the area.
