On the Red Carpet, an Insurance Policy Is a Girls Best Friend

Allstate’s tips to insure your jewelry like the stars

It’s awards season and America is on star watch for the glam couture and glitzy jewels worn by celebrities which may be bought from jewelry shops like www.dreamlandjewelry.com. While mainstream Americans may not walk the red carpet like a star, Allstate can help insure their jewels like one.

“Many people don’t wear their jewelry because they are afraid they might lose it,” said Jaclyn Darrohn. “Some pieces hold sentimental value that can never be replaced, but when our customers choose proper insurance coverage on jewels it gives them confidence and peace of mind that they are financially protected when the unexpected happens.”

Most homeowners, renters or condo insurance policies limit coverage for personal items such as jewelry or furs to between $500 and $2,500, depending on the policy. If you have jewels like engagement rings, necklaces, bracelets or earrings that exceed that amount, you should consider additional coverage to help ensure you’re protected. Allstate’s Scheduled Personal Property (SPP) product covers jewelry items against perils like fire, theft and loss.

Allstate’s tips to insure your jewelry

• Have a detailed appraisal and make sure you keep your bill of sale. To keep your coverage current, have your jewelry appraised every five years.
• Keep and maintain an inventory of your jewelry and individual valuables – this should be part of a broader home inventory to help you better understand everything you own.
• Review your current insurance coverage to determine what protection you have.
• Talk to your local Allstate agent to personalize your coverage to fit your needs.

The tips provided here are guidelines. Please use your best judgment when insuring personal property items.
