Art Collection Insurance Program Expanded to Include Jewelry and Watches

Diamond Ring PhotoAn engagement ring can cost an average of $6,000 and up, heirloom pieces and other jewelry often have significantly higher values. Jewelry is a favorite for thieves and most often never recovered. This valuable property is usually not adequately covered under the victim’s homeowners or renters insurance and has even less coverage options while travelling.

Our Fine art insurance coverage has broadened its collectibles program to offer expanded coverage of up to $250,000 in jewelry and watches. The enhanced offering represents a significant expansion to the Art and Collectibles Insurance program.

Specific items eligible for coverage include antique and designer gemstones, pearls, bracelets, charms, earrings, necklaces, pendants, and rings and watches comprised of silver, gold, platinum and/or other precious metals or alloys. Watches include vintage, collectible and every day time pieces worn on the wrist, as a necklace or in a pocket. Under this program, mysterious disappearance is an included risk, and coverage travels with the policyholder worldwide. (Note: no coverage in baggage unless in your hand and while on the premises of Hotel/Motel, unless being worn or in hotel supervised vault.) No appraisal is required at application for pieces valued less than $50,000, and a no deductible option is also available.

Collectibles Insurance is offered nationwide which offers tailor-made coverage solutions for private and corporate collections, museums, galleries and artists. Visit us here for more info or for a quote on your collectible call 800.921.1008
