Why You Need A Jewelry Appraisal
Trust your jewelry appraisal to an independent, certified gemologist for an expert, unbiased valuation you can rely on.
Knowing the true value of your jewelry prevents overinsuring, saves you money on premiums, and guarantees the right protection. Since the value of jewelry fluctuates with the unstable metal and loose stone markets, it is best to have your jewelry appraised every three to five years.

Types of Appraisals
Jewelry can be insured either as a scheduled item—requiring a detailed appraisal—or as an unscheduled item with limited coverage. For items worth more than $1,000, obtaining an appraisal is essential.
Diamonds require certification with a grading report indicating the quality and value of the diamond. This leaves less room for interpretation should the item ever need to be replaced. Homeowner’s or rental insurance policies generally cover unscheduled jewelry, although this amount is limited.
