Theft Coverage for Jewelry: If your valuable jewelry is stolen, it can be overwhelming. Our comprehensive theft insurance ensures your stolen item is replaced with one of the same kind and quality, giving you peace of mind.
Jewelry Damage Insurance: Accidents happen—whether it’s a diamond ring that cracks after hitting a countertop or a prong that bends from getting snagged. Our jewelry damage coverage ensures repairs, so your treasured pieces stay in top condition.
Coverage for Jewelry Disappearance: Sometimes, jewelry just vanishes—whether it’s lost, misplaced, or potentially stolen, and you can't explain how, where, or when it happened. Rest assured; our jewelry insurance covers these mysterious disappearances.
Natural Disaster Jewelry Protection: We understand that natural disasters like floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes can strike unexpectedly. Our jewelry insurance covers losses or damages caused by these events, so you’re always protected.
Worldwide Jewelry Travel Insurance: Planning a Caribbean cruise or European vacation? Our jewelry insurance provides global coverage, ensuring your items are protected no matter where your travels take you.
Inflation Protection for Jewelry: As the market changes, the value of your jewelry may appreciate. Our complimentary Insurance Value Adjustment (IVA) ensures your pieces are insured for their current worth, even if their value rises due to inflation. To ensure maximum protection, make sure to update your jewelry appraisals regularly. You can opt out of the IVA service if your item’s appraisal is more than two years old at the time of policy renewal.
Normal Wear and Tear Coverage: Over time, your jewelry will naturally show signs of wear, such as the need to retip a prong or tighten a stone. Our jewelry insurance covers these gradual wear-and-tear issues to keep your pieces in excellent condition.
What Jewelry Insurance Doesn’t Cover: While our coverage is extensive, there are a few exceptions. Our jewelry insurance does not cover losses due to war, military action, rodent and pest infestation, intentional actions, voluntary parting, general deterioration, resizing, cleaning, or inspections.
