Valuations

We offer a wide range of jewellery valuation services carried out by our registered valuer. The most common of which is valuation for insurance.

Jewellery Valuations

At AA Thornton we recommend that you have your jewellery regularly valued for insurance purposes. This gives a value of the items should it need to be replaced, in other words how much it will cost to replace them. It is not how much you may get if you choose to sell them.

Some underwriters suggest that an index linked increase is applied each year but do be careful as jewellery prices do not always follow these indexes. We would therefore recommend you have the valuation updated every four or five years. This will also give us the opportunity to recommend any repairs that may be required.

If you are unfortunate enough to suffer a loss then it is this valuation for insurance that you will use to justify a fair and realistic settlement from your underwriter. Do be careful when choosing an insurance policy as some insurers insist you get the replacement from their choice of jewellers which may not be able to supply replacement items of the same style and quality. This is why we recommend TH March as they specialise in jewellery insurance and allow you to choose where you have your jewellery replaced or repaired. Read more about jewellery insurance here.

If you are an executor of a will, be it a firm of solicitors or a private individual, we also regularly attend to valuations for probate.

- Good customer service- good selection of new jewellery- great selection of pre-loved jewellery- good repairs service- reasonable price for service and productsEdit* Just had another absolutely amazing experience with AA Thornton. I went through their bespoke process for an engagement ring and I am over the moon with the result and was very happy with the process, service and attention to detail. I couldn’t recommend them more!

Sally and all the team at A A Thorntons are absolutely fabulous - professional yet friendly !I recently had a ring set redesigned and they were so helpful, keeping me updated every step of the way so that I had input into the settings.I would definitely recommend them for this type of work and also for the wonderful range of items, jewellery and gifts, that they have in store.Sally - I can't thank you enough for all your hard work and the utterly beautiful result.
