We generally recommend updating insurance valuations every 3–5 years, or sooner if there have been significant changes in gold, platinum, or diamond prices.
Protecting your jewellery starts with having the right valuation. Whether you own an engagement ring, luxury watch, family heirloom, or bespoke piece, an up-to-date insurance valuation helps ensure you are properly covered in the event of loss, theft, or damage.
At Jewellery Services, our qualified gemmologists and valuers provide professional, independent jewellery valuations designed to support accurate insurance cover and smoother claims processes.
Unlike generic appraisals or outdated receipts, our reports include detailed descriptions, gemstone grading, metal identification, high-resolution photography, and current replacement values tailored to New Zealand market conditions.
Jewellery values can change significantly over time due to fluctuations in precious metal and gemstone prices. Many people are unknowingly underinsured because they rely on old receipts or outdated valuations. Industry guidance commonly recommends professional valuations for higher-value jewellery items.
A professional valuation can help you:
For smaller valuation jobs of 1–4 pieces, no booking is usually required. You are welcome to drop your items into our workshop during business hours and our team will guide you through the process.
If you have 5 or more items, we do recommend arranging a booking where possible. Larger valuation appointments can take additional time to intake, photograph, and assess correctly, so booking ahead helps us ensure one of our valuers is available and allows us to provide a smoother, faster experience.
If you are unsure, feel free to contact the team and we can advise on the best option for your items and timeframe.
Our comprehensive valuation reports may include:
Electronic copies can also be supplied for your records and insurer.
Our goal is to provide fair, accurate, and realistic valuations that reflect the true replacement cost of your jewellery. Accurate valuations are critical to ensuring insurance policies respond correctly at claim time.
We work closely with retailers and jewellery owners throughout New Zealand and can guide you on the most appropriate type of valuation for your needs.
Our valuation team includes qualified GIA Graduate Gemmologists and members of recognised industry organisations, including the Jewellery Valuers Society.
As one of New Zealand’s largest jewellery workshops, we combine valuation expertise with decades of hands-on experience in jewellery manufacturing, repairs, diamonds, gemstones, and precious metals.
