Insurance Appraising
Gone are the days of a jeweler looking at a piece of jewelry, writing a number on a piece of paper, and giving it to you to submit to your insurance company. Insurance company requirements for what is acceptable as an appraisal have gotten stricter. Requirements can also vary from company to company and requirements can vary by the value of each piece of jewelry.
We provide several types of insurance-related appraisals to assist you with protecting your jewelry items.
These include:
Insurance Replacement Appraisal for obtaining insurance coverage
Post-Loss Appraisals, should your jewelry become partially or totally damaged
Detail the damage sustained by your jewelry and the decrease in its value due to that damage
Estimate the cost of repair or reproducing a lost or damaged jewelry item
Estimate the salvage value of a damaged jewelry item
Estimated retail replacement value is the type of value that is used for insurance appraising. In other words, what would it cost you to purchase an identical or similar replacement for your lost or stolen jewelry item?
