Why Do You Need a Professional Jewellery Valuation?
Jewellery is more than just adornment; it often holds deep sentimental value and represents a significant financial investment. But do you truly know the current worth of your cherished heirlooms or recent acquisitions? Many people are surprised to learn that the value of precious metals, gemstones, and even design trends can fluctuate considerably over time. That’s why professional valuations are not just a luxury, but a necessity for several key reasons:
- Insurance: This is perhaps the most common reason for a jewellery valuation. In the unfortunate event of loss, theft, or damage, an up-to-date, accurate valuation ensures that your insurance policy provides adequate coverage, allowing for a like-for-like replacement or fair compensation. Without a current valuation, you could be significantly under-insured, leading to substantial financial loss.
- Probate: When administering an estate, accurate valuations of all assets, including jewellery, are crucial for probate purposes. Peter Nottingham provides sensitive and discreet valuations to assist executors in fulfilling their responsibilities correctly and efficiently.
- Divorce & Separation: During periods of divorce or separation, the equitable division of assets often requires independent and impartial valuations of significant items like jewellery. Peter’s valuations provide clear and justifiable figures to aid in fair settlements.
- Peace of Mind: Beyond legal or financial necessities, simply knowing the true value of your jewellery can offer immense peace of mind and help you make informed decisions about its care and future.
