All AboutJewellery Valuation
A professional valuation protects your jewellery for insurance, sale or probate, and these UK valuers provide documented, up-to-date figures. An accurate valuation makes sure a piece is properly insured and fairly assessed, and the qualified valuers listed here give you paperwork you can rely on.
When You Need a Valuation
Valuations are needed for insurance cover, for probate and estate division, before a sale, and after any significant change in metal or stone prices. Insurers usually expect a valuation to be updated every few years, as replacement values shift, so an old figure may leave a piece underinsured.
Choosing a Qualified Valuer
Look for a valuer with a recognised qualification and membership of a professional body, who inspects each piece in person and issues a detailed written report with photographs. The valuers here explain the basis of their figures, whether replacement, market or probate value, so you know exactly what the document covers.
