Valuations


As many as 30% of insurance claims for jewellery and related items are affected by under-insurance because the claimant is unaware of the real value of the items until it is too late.

At Lanes we offer a professional valuation service in association with National Association of Jewellers Institute of Registered Valuers. We provide a drop-off service allowing you to leave the items with us for valuation. The turnaround time for this service is usually around seven working days.

our valuations provide:


expert description & valuation of each item / A beautiful portfolio / with colour digital images of each item valued / Proof of ownership / Assurance you are not under-insured / Reduced claims handling times should the worst happen.

Insurance Claims


We are acknowledged experts in this minefield. Whatever your problems, our staff are well versed in dealing sympathetically with your claims and acting on your behalf with your insurers or brokers to negotiate the best possible settlement.

Lanes we often are required to source for example, a matching Victorian cut diamond for replacement in an antique ring where a modern cut substitute would be the easiest but in our opinion, a most unsuitable solution.
