Jewelry Insurance: Coverage options for Ring, Watches, & More

Why Jewelry Insurance?

It's devastating to have jewelry that represents special moments in your life get damaged, lost, or stolen. That's why the GEICO Insurance Agency has teamed up with Jewelers Mutual Insurance Group to offer jewelry insurance.

A specialized jewelry insurance policy provides comprehensive coverage. Coverage against scenarios—like mysterious disappearance (or unexplained loss)—that may not be covered by standard homeowners or renters insurance or by warranties.

And, you won't be able to tell your old piece from the new in the event of a loss, damage, theft, or disappearance. The jewelry experts at Jewelers Mutual will repair or replace to a level of indistinguishable kind and quality.

How much does jewelry insurance cost?

Rates depend on where you live, but for most people, jewelry insurance will cost 1-2% of the value of your jewelry. For example, a $5,000 engagement ring could cost as little as $50 per year to insure.

When would my coverage begin?

You can complete the online application in about 10 minutes and, in most cases, be insured as soon as it's received.

Still not sure if you need jewelry insurance?

Ask yourself these questions:

If my jewelry disappeared today, would I be...

  • Devastated about the sentimental loss?
  • Afraid to wear my other uninsured jewelry?
  • Unable to cover the cost to replace it?
  • Subject to coverage limits with my current insurance?
  • Forced to work with a jewelry replacement company and not my preferred jeweler?
  • Worried about having to settle for a replacement of lesser quality than the original?
  • At risk of having my insurance rates go up?

If you answered "yes" to one or more of these questions, you're an excellent fit.
