Who needs insurance for jewelry?

If you have an engagement ring or other valuable jewelry, a standalone jewelry insurance policy can protect it with specialized coverage.

While your homeowners, renters, or condo insurance may offer coverage for jewelry, you’d need to add a rider for the pieces you want insured, and making a jewelry claim could affect your entire property insurance rate. With a dedicated policy through Lavalier, you get specialized, “all risk” coverage, and your rate won’t automatically increase if you make a claim.

How does jewelry insurance work?

Jewelry insurance works by protecting you from the cost of your jewelry getting lost, damaged, or stolen. If that happens, you’ll make a claim and Lavalier will work with you and your preferred jeweler to repair or replace the piece.

You’ll have a chance to approve the repair or replacement before the claim is completed. Lavalier will pay your jeweler directly, minus your deductible (if you have one).

Lavalier jewelry insurance starts at $68 per year, and it typically only costs 1–2% of your insured jewelry’s value. You’ll be able to choose your deductible and customize your rate according to your budget. Your deductible can be as low as $0 and as high as $25,000, depending on your preference and your jewelry’s value.
