We can arrange your valuation for you. Our expert Gemologist examine your jewellery and provide a full report of written valuation that acts a legal document you can use for insurance in every insurance company around the world.

Our appraisals and lab reports are recognized worldwide by insurance companies, retailers, private jewelers and wholesalers.

You may require a valuation for a number of reasons; the most common is that your insurer requires one to provide adequate insurance cover for your watches and jewellery. Other reasons include probate, private sale or just for personal interest.
