The ring is incredible. It’s dazzling, stylish, and utterly her. But who should insure the precious bauble?
Answer: Either! More precisely, it should be insured by the person who first has possession of it.
With an object so tiny and so expensive, you’ll want it protected from the moment you first walk it out of the jeweller’s shop.
Carrying around an engagement ring is enough to make anyone feel nervous. You may feel you have the fate of your relationship in the palm of your hand. Where do you keep it until you propose? How can you walk nonchalantly through your date without sweating at the thought of losing it?
Many soon-to-be fiances find creative places for keeping engagement rings before they propose. Some are extremely safe, like safe deposit boxes. Others, like dresser drawers, may suffice in a pinch. Wherever you keep it, the best protection of all is a jewellery insurance policy that fits the ring, as well as the ring (hopefully) will fit her finger.
Let’s look at the situation from the other side. Say you’re the recipient of the gorgeous sparkler. One of your first wedding planning questions should be, “Is the engagement ring insured?” If not, it’s certainly not too late to take action.
A lot can happen between the day you first slip the ring onto your finger, and the day you say, “I do.” And that’s just the beginning. Most women wear their engagement rings at work, at home, and even while they traipse around the globe.
Fortunately, the process of securing insurance is simple.
There are two easy ways to secure world-class engagement ring insurance through Q Report.
The simplest and most secure method of insuring your ring is to purchase protection at the point of sale. When you buy your engagement ring from a Q Certified jeweller, you can enjoy complete peace of mind from the moment you walk out of the store.
For instance, let’s say you settle on this 18ct 0.67ct Art Deco-Inspired Diamond Ring from Jarrett Jewellery in Sydney. You know she’ll swoon over it, but how do you properly babysit it until the big moment of your proposal?
No worries. Jarrett Jewellery can set you up with a Q Classic policy for your ring, providing you with instant worldwide cover.
