Jewellery Valuations

Why You’ll Need Them and Why We’re Going to Offer Them

At Lores, we believe that every piece of jewellery should be worn, but also protected. Whether it's a family heirloom passed down through generations or a newly designed piece from our collection, understanding its value is essential. That's why we're excited to announce that valuations will soon be part of the services we offer.

Our founder, Lorna, is currently on an 18-24 month journey to become a qualified jewellery valuer. Once she’s completed her course, she’ll be ready to offer expert valuations for both your old and new jewellery, providing peace of mind whether you’re looking to insure a treasured item or simply understand its worth.

Why Do You Need a Jewellery Valuation?

Insurance
Having your jewellery professionally valued is key to making sure it’s properly insured. The market value of gold and gemstones fluctuates, and without an up-to-date valuation, you could be underinsured. A valuation ensures your jewellery is covered for its true worth, should anything happen to it.

Resale
If you’re thinking about selling a piece of jewellery, knowing its current market value can help you make informed decisions. A professional valuation provides you with accurate information so you can sell your jewellery confidently.

Heirlooms & Sentimental Value
Even if you don’t plan on selling or insuring your jewellery, a valuation can provide insight into its history and significance. Knowing the story behind a family heirloom, as well as its current worth, helps preserve its legacy for future generations.

Why We’re Excited to Offer Jewellery Valuations

Lorna, the founder of Lores, has always been dedicated to understanding every detail of the jewellery we create or transform. Now, she’s taking it a step further by starting comprehensive training that will qualify her to provide professional jewellery valuations and appraisals. Once qualified, Lorna will offer valuations for new pieces you’ve bought from Lores or any sentimental treasures already in your collection.

This is an exciting new chapter for us, as we continue to expand our services, giving you even more ways to care for and understand your jewellery. We’ll be able to offer expert valuations that consider not only the materials and craftsmanship but also the deeper meaning that these pieces hold for you.

What to Expect from a Lores Valuation

Once Lorna is fully qualified, our valuations will be carried out with the same level of care and attention that we bring to every piece of jewellery we create. Whether you need a valuation for insurance, resale, or just personal knowledge, we’re here to help you understand your jewellery’s true value. Expect personalised service, expert insights, and a valuation that reflects both the tangible and sentimental value of your jewellery.
