Are your jewels properly insured?
A jewelry appraisal is a written statement of the authenticity, quality, design and value of a piece of jewelry. A detailed accurate appraisal is needed to protect your interest should any of your jewelry be lost or stolen.
The appraisal will describe:
- The setting, purity or karat, gram weight, stamps and engravings.
- Major stone, including shape size, carat weight, clarity, and variety.
- Minor stones, including shape, size, weight, color, and clarity.
- Total gem weight will be listed and a digital photograph attached.
The appraisal will aim to provide enough information to replace the item with one of like size, quality and value in the event of loss or damage.
***If additional information is required, please check with your insurance carrier prior to your appointment.
