Diamond Jewellery Insurance

After purchasing any diamond rings and jewellery, it’s important that you have a jewellery insurance to cover any loss, theft or accidental damage.

All items purchased from Purely Diamonds come with a valuation document for insurance purposes, stating the full specification of the item as well as a recommended retail value for insuring your jewellery. As high value items, our diamond rings and jewellery should be insured for this value to make sure you are fully covered should you need to claim.

Whilst you may be able to add your items to your existing home and contents insurance, there are often stipulations which prevent thorough cover by your provider. If this is the case, we recommend jewellery insurance broker TH March.

Things to look for when buying jewellery insurance.

There are numerous questions you need to ask yourself – and your insurance provider, when buying jewellery and engagement ring insurance to ensure you get the best deal and best protection in the event you need to make a claim for theft or accidental loss.

  • Is your jewellery only covered at home?
    Some home and contents insurance only permit your jewellery to be covered when stored or worn at home. This is not practical if you wish you wear your jewellery everyday so make sure you check this.
  • Is there an excess fee in the event of a claim?
    In the unfortunate event you have to claim against loss, theft or accident of your item(s) some insurance companies charge an additional excess fee to process your claim – this is additional to the premium you have already paid for your insurance.
  • Are there limits to the total value of individual items on your policy?
    Do make sure you check if items you list on your insurance policy are limited by a total value amount. For example, whilst your policy may cover you for up to £50,000 in total, it may stipulate the total value per item – meaning you may not be covered in full if you have to claim.
  • Are you only covered against theft?
    We understand that accidents happen and you can lose things without intent, so it’s best to make sure your chosen policy covers accidental loss and damage as well as theft to be on the safe side.
  • Does your insurer have a preferred list of jewellers in the event of a claim?
    There are many insurance companies, that in the event of a claim state you must find a replacement for your lost or stolen jewellery from their preferred lists of jewellers. This may see you find a replacement that is of inferior quality than your Purely Diamonds jewellery.
  • Is your cover with a generic insurance provider?
    As diamond jewellery is a unique industry, it is suggested you find a specialist insurance provider that understands the product in the event of a claim.
