Valuations

Valuations for insurance purposes are carried out by our skilled team. One of the members of this team is Robert Robins who is an approved I.G.I Diamond and gem stone grader. Robert has had extensive training in Antwerp, which is regarded as the diamond capital of the world, at I.G.I head quarters.

 I.G.I is the International Gemological Institute who’s authority is world recognised.

Although valuing can be full of complicated jargon, we promise to speak to you in plain English. All weights, carats, sizes etc. will be recorded accurately and photographed if required.

We deal with all the major insurance companies / brokerages and we are agents for T.H.March, who are specialists in the field of jewellery insurance.

If it is just advice you need and a rough value of an article we can do this on the spot in our store free of charge, although this is just a rough guide to the value.

Costs

We do not charge a percentage of the value as valuing this way will cause prices to escalate, so we prefer to give you a fixed fee before we start.

Whilst your jewellery is being valued we will give each individual piece a safety inspection and report on any work that may be necessary to ensure that it is in good condition and will last many years to come.
