Valuation
Your jewellery is precious and it is important to protect it. In the event that your jewellery is ever lost or stolen and you need to make a claim, your insurance company will probably ask for proof of ownership and value.
A professional valuation for insurance purposes, carried out by an independent valuer, is by the far the best way to achieve this and maximises your chances of achieving a fair result. Also, in the event that the police recover your possessions, a valuation with images of your items and detailed descriptions could be the only way to provide evidence of ownership and to get them back.
While the majority of valuations are for insurance replacement – to get an accurate and current valuation of your jewellery to ensure you are covered and your premiums are correct – we can also help if you need one for probate or sales between parties.
Valuations are proceeded through our Commerce Street store and take approximately 2 weeks. For further information pop into store, or give us a call on 01343 551687.
Engraving
Sometimes a special gift just needs a more personal touch, particularly if the sentiment is so special that you want your loved one to be able to treasure it forever.
We can help you to create that moment with our expert engraving service. We can engrave words or symbols on jewellery, watches and trophies, making your gift uniquely personal and one of a kind. Plates or plaques can also be added to giftware for that special touch.
If you would like to discuss our engraving service, please call us on 01343 551687.

Jewellery Cleaning Services
While most jewellery can be cleaned at home, some pieces are especially delicate or require a specialist’s touch.
We think all jewellery benefits from being cleaned and inspected professionally at least once a year. Not only will this keep your jewellery looking as beautiful as the day your first wore it, but it will allow us to check for signs of damage or wear and tear and suggest a suitable repair before it becomes a serious problem.
