Are your jewellery valuations up to date?

It is entirely possible that you are a very lucky lady, and have been bought a wealth of lovely gifts over the years (as well as treating yourself to a few along the way)!  Not to overlook the gents; watches, cufflinks and even those christening gifts from long ago are all kicking about the house somewhere.

But when was the last time that you had them valued and updated your insurance company? 

Small diamonds (up to 0.20 carat) have increased by 46% to buy this year alone.  Combine this with a rise in gold to an all time high in April at $1505.00 per ounce, and you will undoubtedly find that your ten year old valuation leaves you making up a very big shortfall should you need to replace an item due to loss or theft.

With prices increasing this fast, we would recommend that you get all your valuables assessed RIGHT NOW, and try to get the figures updated annually.
