Why use a Registered Valuer?

Registered Valuers have years of experience in the jewellery trade. Their qualification is the only one recognised by the Gemmological Association of Australia, the Jewellers Association of Australia and the Insurance Council of Australia. Registered Valuers must attend regular seminars and updates to equip themselves to place an exact value of your jewellery.

How often should valuations be updated?

Every two to three years if possible, for several reasons; to make sure that any insurance taken out on jewellery items, cover you for replacement of items in the event of a loss or robbery and to note any wear & tear, and to make sure that any premiums you are paying aren't more than you need to pay! We can now supply a photo with the piece of Jewellery if required.

There are many types of reasons for valuation

1. Retail replacement for insurance
2. Estate Division
3. Fair market value
4. Probate
5. Auction Reserve
6. Divorce Settlement / Legal Purposes
7. Private sale
