We are proud to now offer all customers purchasing opal the addition of an independent valuation. An independent valuation provides you with peace of mind that you are purchasing a natural opal. The valuation lists the exact dimensions, and a photo of the opal is also included. Independent Valuations by registered and qualified valuers are also useful when it comes time to insure your precious gem. Most insurers will accept a valuation of this kind.
Our valuation partner is a member of the National Council of Jewellery Valuers in Australia and is a certified valuer with qualifications from Australia, Britain and Antwerp, Belgium. You can order a valuation with your purchase by selecting the product Independent Valuation. Your valuation will add only a few days to the shipment of your order.
