If you’re here, you’ve probably decided to get married, right? There can only be two scenarios: either you’ve just purchased the engagement ring, or you’ve already accepted it and you now have a beautiful piece of jewelry on your finger.
Congratulations!!! Either way, you might still have butterflies in your stomach and many thoughts of the future racing in your head, among them the important question of whether it is possible to protect the ring now.
Yes, it is. Keep reading below and you’ll learn all about how jewelry is insured.
The first thing you need to do is learn about which insurance policies can protect your ‘precious’ and exactly how the coverages act, so that you can make an informed decision.
If you paid attention to the coverages available when you took out your home insurance, whether it was Homeowners or Renters, you know that your personal property is covered. However, the basic home insurance theft coverage has somewhat low limits when considering the average value of an engagement ring.
While your Personal Property coverage pays up to $1,500.00 (in total) to reimburse stolen jewelry, the average value of engagement rings is around $10,000. That is, even if you got it as a gift, it is important to understand the value of the ring to decide which coverage will suit you. An appraisal with a trusted jeweler can be the best way to find out the value. This way, no one is embarrassed and you confirm the value of each element of the piece.
If your ring is within your home insurance coverage value, great! If not, talk to your agent; there are endorsements, extra coverages and even specific policies to protect objects with high values and special meaning.
Another thing to consider: if your partner is in possession of an insured gem such as a pair of wedding rings, it is possible that one of them won’t always be with you, right? In this case, you must add your partner to your home insurance policy. Please note that for this to be authorized, you must live in the same house.
Your ring will be covered from the same dangers and damages that any other personal property is. Fires, burglaries, damage caused by mold, explosions, vandalism or intense winds, depending on the type of risks outlined in your policy, whether it is a named or open risk. Always review and check your coverage.
I understand how painful it must be to think about the possibility of something happening to your ring, whether you are the buyer, who worked so hard to save the money in order to purchase it, or the recipient, who waited so long for this moment.
The good news is that if we didn’t believe in the possibility of something happening, there wouldn’t be any insurance for it, would there?
There are two types of personal property coverage:
– Replacement cost
If you took out a replacement cost policy, you will receive the dollar amount needed to buy a new ring at the time you claim the insurance.
– Real cash value
The actual cash value policy takes into account depreciation to provide a refund based on the current value of an item.
You can insure as many jewelry, watches, pens or other valuables as you like. You can even add new items as your collection grows. The point is that your premium increases along with the growth in the number of insured parts.
And don’t forget to always include the new item with the correct value so that there is no discrepancy at the time of refund.
When the part to be insured is irreplaceable and its commercial value is irrelevant to the sentimental or artistic value, you should take these nuances to your insurance company.
This type of insurance goes beyond normal insurance and it is important to inform your insurance agent so that you can look for a customized solution for that specific ring together.
Some jewelry stores offer an upgrade service. That is, you take the ring that was purchased some time ago, return it and pay the difference to purchase a new and more sophisticated jewel. Another way to upgrade is to exchange some stones and materials and increase the value of the piece.
Regardless of how, if your ring becomes more valuable, you will need to inform your insurance company and upgrade your policy, both in value and in the item description, so you don’t run the risk of not being fully covered.
Review your home insurance policy to know your coverages and extensions and to understand how we can protect your engagement ring. We’re here to care about the safety of your valued items while you can care for and enjoy the things that really matter to you.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
