Professional Saver Jewellery Designer Insurance


Our standard cover is:

  • £1 million cover for public and products liability (with an option to increase to £2 million, £5 million or £10 million)
  • £10,000 cover for any financial loss (£50K cover optional)
  • Worldwide liability cover for temporary work abroad for up to 14 days (excluding the USA and Canada)

As a jewellery designer you design and create items every day. Even with the utmost care, accidents can happen – a diamond could get fractured during setting, or an antique piece could get damaged beyond repair.

Without adequate insurance, you risk facing hefty pay-outs if anything gets lost, stolen, or damaged due to an accident, employee oversight, or even an opportunistic customer. Our jewellery business policies give you complete peace of mind that any claims caused by damage, loss, or theft on your premises will be handled professionally and efficiently.

Tailored Cover for Your Jewellery Business:

Our jewellery insurance packages can include:

Public Liability Insurance

Public liability insurance covers any injury caused to clients, employees, or visitors through negligence. For example, if a cabinet displaying jewellery collapses and injures a browsing customer.

Products Liability Insurance

This coverage safeguards you if the jewellery you have designed, manufactured, or worked on causes injury or damage due to a fault. For instance, if the jewellery wasn’t properly finished, and it scratches or cuts the wearer or others due to sharp edges.

Professional Indemnity Insurance

This optional insurance provides cover if flaws in your designs or mistakes in your jewellery work lead to financial loss for a client. For example, an inaccurate valuation provided by the jeweller leads to financial losses for the client, who later discovers the piece’s true value.

Business Contents and Equipment Insurance

This optional insurance protects all the vital equipment you use, like jeweller’s tools, casting machines, and 3D printers, as well as your raw materials and finished jewellery pieces from theft, loss, or accidental damage at your premises.

FAQs

Jewellery Design Insurance FAQs

Jewellery designers, retail stores, and manufacturing workshops handle incredibly valuable gemstones and precious metals belonging to clients every day. Accidents like losing stones during setting or damaging antique pieces can mean substantial payouts running into tens of thousands without adequate insurance.

In addition, policies cover injury claims if customers are hurt by loose stones or collapsing displays. They also protect against compensation demands if expensive jewellery stock is damaged, lost, or stolen due to employee oversight or security failures.

  • A client’s antique art deco necklace gets badly scratched during modifications, and they demand hundreds for devaluation.
  • An inherited sapphire and diamond ring worth £20,000 gets misplaced in the workshop by a new apprentice.
  • Water pipe flooding destroys several bespoke pieces worth £15,000 before delivery.
  • Opportunistic shoplifters steal luxury watches while staff are distracted.

We provide tailored protection for all common jewellery business activities, such as:

  • Design – CAD modelling, custom sketches, wax prototype creation
  • Manufacturing – stone setting, engraving, enamelling, casting, polishing
  • Repairs & Modifications – ring resizing, claw re-tipping, restorations
  • Retail Sales – custom design consultations, valuations, in-store browsing
  • Pearl Stringing – knotting, spacing pearls and beads for necklaces and bracelets
  • Laser Welding – seamless, invisible joins for broken rings and bangles
  • Rhodium Plating – applying durable tarnish-resistant white gold coating
  • Appraisals – assessing antique pieces, diamond certification

Our specialist insurance covers any claims stemming from accidents, negligence, or oversight during such jewellery services.

Absolutely – our policies can cover your valuable jewellery raw materials and finished pieces against theft and accidental damage. We can insure stock like:

  • Gold/silver/platinum stock – bullion, sheet, wire, etc.
  • Loose diamonds and gemstones
  • Pearl strands
  • Antique/vintage jewellery items
  • Custom-designed/manufactured pieces
  • Display items and samples
  • Tools – e.g., jeweller’s saws, microscopes, casting equipment
