Jewellery Appraisals
Our in-house GIA trained appraiser provides you with a free appraisal document on any engagement
ring purchased from us. Thereafter, we recommend that you bring in your engagement
ring annually for cleaning. and for us to check that your diamonds remain secure.
We provide this service at no charge. At the same time, we can review any appraisals you
have, to see if they require updating in value.
Appraisal
An appraisal document should fully describe the specifications of
an engagement ring so that it can be accurately valued and replaced. Time
must be taken to carefully photograph, examine, identify, weigh, measure, test, grade
and value the engagement ring as accurately as possible. A digital
close-up photograph of the engagement ring is imbedded in the appraisal document.
This full colour image clearly shows the styling detail of the engagement ring to enable remanufacturing. We keep digital archives
of all the appraisals we issue so that they are readily available should you or
your insurers ever need a copy.
Jewellery Insurance Rider
Give your insurer a photocopy of the
appraisal
document and
request them to quote you on the cost of scheduling your engagement ring on your
insurance policy. Most insurers usually waive the requirement
of a deductible in the event of a claim on a scheduled item. Confirm
this with your insurer before proceeding.
