It can be extremely upsetting to lose a piece of jewellery, however it is devastating to be informed by your insurance company that your claim is being denied because your piece is not professionally valued.

A valuation involves examining the item to assess its quality and to value it on the current market conditions.

Consumers should only accepts valuations that clearly state the purpose of the document i.e. insurance replacement, auction reserve, forced or unforced sale, secondhand, private sale, divorce settlement and deceased estate, and in the market in which it is being based (store, internet, auction etc).

A valuation can be used to prove ownership, verify authenticity, describe the piece in detail and determine its value.
A valuation should never be used as a sales tool.
