Diamond insurance certificate

The diamond is the most well-known and sought-after gemstone in the world. This gem has a unique history. When purchasing it, you must ensure you have all the accompanying documents. The insurance certificate is one of these papers.

What is the diamond insurance certificate?

This is actually the certificate of authenticity. It's the document you need to present to your insurance company in order to insure your diamond or jewelry.

This is the only mandatory document to prove that you indeed own the item as well as the notification of its value.

Why is it important to have this certificate of authenticity?

This certificate of authenticity is mandatory when you buy a piece of jewelry with one or more diamonds. These pieces of jewelry then have a certain value. This is a value that is more or less significant. It is therefore advisable to go to your insurer in order to insure your jewelry. This piece of paper proves that it is a piece of jewelry, that it belongs to you and its value is also indicated.

All it takes is for a malicious person to steal your jewelry or if you lose the jewelry and you can't find it for this document to save you! Having this certificate of authenticity and having presented it to your insurance allows you to be reimbursed. (Fun fact: it works a bit like your car insurance. You just had a fender bender and since your car is insured, your insurance will reimburse you so that you can repair it).

Be careful, not all insurances cover this kind of certificate. If yours does not take this into account, there are additional contracts that you can make with your insurer. That's why it's important to get well informed with your insurance.

What about authenticity certificates at Celinni?

The Celinni is able to provide you with this official document because it is approved by all insurance companies.

Please note that all jewelry or diamonds from our house are always delivered with a certificate of authenticity. You will only have to go to your insurer to show them this paper in order to insure your diamond jewelry.

How are the authenticity certificates for Celinni diamonds presented?

The Celinni authenticity certificate is a paper document that is provided to you as soon as you purchase a jewel or diamond from us.

This document includes:

Your name
The Certificate number
The description of your jewel, for example: Solitaire Elle Round diamond 0.70 carat Size 56 18k White Gold 750/1000
The purity of the diamond, for example: I1
The color of the diamond, for example: H
The estimated retail price
The date
The general principles of prior movable expertise

The retail price estimate is the price of the jewel in a jewelry store. This is the price that your insurance should usually reimburse you in case of loss of the jewel. This estimate is made with the experience of insurance claim settlements, so they are made in replacement value. As it is about gems or jewelry, the estimate will be made at replacement price in a jewelry store for an identical object.

The estimate is therefore not necessarily the price you paid for this jewel. It is estimated from similar jewels that are on the market. For example: a Celinni Solitaire can cost 2,390 € and on the certificate of authenticity the estimate is almost 4,000 €. The estimate is calculated on the basis of the same ring with the same characteristics and of equal quality.

How are the authenticity certificates for Celinni diamonds presented?

The Celinni diamonds certified by an international gemology laboratory are systematically engraved with the certificate number. At your request, the Celinni logo or a personal message (two first names, a date, a word...).

You can visit our showrooms all over France (Paris, Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon and Nice), in Switzerland and Morocco for more information.

The Celinni evaluates your jewelry for about 60 € per piece. Do not hesitate to contact us for more information.

1) The diamond is a symbol of good, purity, wealth, and power. It also has healing virtues. A popular belief was that this gem could cure a disease by simply placing it on a part of the body. (Fun fact: it was later realized during the Renaissance that ingesting diamond powder killed more than it healed).

2) The diamond is a precious stone unlike any other. That's why these stones are expensive. They are rare and there is a lot of demand. It is one of the most sought-after stones in jewelry.

3) There are cultured diamonds, these are synthetic stones. This stone has the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as a diamond from the mines.

Congratulations! You are now an expert in understanding authenticity certificates. Do not hesitate to demand this certificate when making your purchases.
