Expecting New Jewelry for Valentine's Day? Protect it!

 

Ah, Valentine's Day is near, and love is in the air. Well, love and a few other things, such as chocolates, romantic dinners, candy hearts that say "Be Mine" - and, of course, jewelry.

 

It's exciting to receive jewelry from a loved one - or to give it as a gift. Not to mention romantic. But if you're lucky enough to have some new jewelry this Valentine's Day, you should take a few minutes to think about something you probably don't find exciting or romantic: insurance.

 

Don't know where to turn? Don't worry. At Fournier, we think it's  exciting to help our clients protect what's most important to them- so we're ready to help and can answer all of your questions.

 

Things to consider when insuring jewelry:

 

You may need to purchase additional coverage. Your homeowner's policy covers valuable items such as jewelry only up to set amounts. If the cost of replacing your jewelry exceeds that limit, you will want to purchase scheduled personal property coverage. You can check your policy or give us a call.

 

You might want to reconsider your deductible amounts. As always, this impacts your policy premium. It's a good idea to take a look at your deductibles whenever you make a change to your policy.

 

Do you need an appraisal? You may need to have an independent appraisal if the insurance company requires it or if you don't know the value of your jewelry. Each item should be listed with a description and value on paper.

 

What kind of coverage is offered? You'll want to determine if items are covered no matter where they are, and if the policy offers full replacement cost. You also should ask if you will be required to replace your jewelry if lost or stolen, or if you can simply keep the cash settlement.

 

Pictures can be helpful. Lost or stolen pieces of jewelry sometimes can be recreated if the jeweler has a good photograph to work from.

 

Is the value of your jewelry mainly sentimental? Is an item irreplaceable? If the answer to either of these questions is "yes," you might consider foregoing insurance. But please, talk to us before making that decision. That's what we're here for.

 

Of course, it's important to store your jewelry securely when it's not in use; a safe in your home or a safe-deposit box is best. We want your jewelry to be replaced if it's lost or stolen, but we'd rather your sentimental and valuable pieces stay with you and your family for years to come.

 

Here's hoping your Valentine's Day is full of fun and romance. And if there's no jewelry involved, well, there's always next year!

As our way of saying thank you, we are continuing our commitment to the "Help Our Community" referral program in 2015.


 

Here's a reminder of how the program works:

  • Each time we receive a referral from you, we will donate $10 to a worthy charity of your choice.
  • What qualifies as a referral?  A referral is when we get a call for a quote from someone saying you referred them to us.  
  • We'll announce the amount we donate each month in this quarterly e-newsletter and on our Facebook page
  • That's it. The person you refer does not have to purchase a policy for your referral to count! There are many worthy charitable organizations in our community.  Help us, help them!
  • Our referral program is open to anyone, whether they are a current client or not.
