Why i-Val for jewelry appraisals?
Do you know if your appraisal includes an adequate description of your jewelry? If it doesn't, you may not get back what you had in the event of a loss.
What if the value is not current or reasonable? If it is undervalued, you may be over the limit of your insurance and unable to replace in the event of a loss.
And, if it is overvalued, you may be paying too much on your premium.
How does it work? i-Val requires input by your jeweler or appraiser of the important characteristics for adequate descriptions. When registered, every article of jewelry gets a unique identifier (like the VIN number on your car).
Your insurance company can use i-Val to check for reasonable values and descriptions before you insure it, as well as prompting periodically if the values are too high or too low, based on real market trends.
How can you make sure you are properly protected? Ask your insurance company and your jeweler if they use i-Val.
