Watches & Jewellery The key benefits of valuables insurance

A gift, an investment, a luxury; there are many reasons why our clients purchase expensive jewellery. Heirlooms passed down through generations are windows into the lives of our ancestors. Imagine the world they experienced whilst wearing the same piece as you now are!

At Ascend, we have the experience to ensure that you access the right cover and only use specialist insurers who have a proven track record in this field. We have a thorough understanding of your exposures and can offer the widest cover with a claims service that is second to none.

We know how much watches and jewellery can mean to you, in both monetary and sentimental ways, therefore we are determined to help you find the best cover for your precious watches and jewellery.

Why you will need your watches and jewellery insured:

• Watches and jewellery are often hard to trace, easy to spot and delicate in size, and is therefore particularly vulnerable to loss, theft and accidental damage.
• We can arrange cover for your watches and jewellery which extends worldwide, so your items are protected wherever you choose to travel.
• Having specialist jewellery insurance means you can wear items of value without worrying about what could happen to them.
• If you have a relatively modest amount of jewellery - say it’s worth less than £1,000-£1,500 - then it should be covered as standard by your contents insurance policy. However, if it is worth is more then you will need more specialist cover.

Because jewellery and watches come in so many shapes and sizes we’ll design an insurance solution that’s right for you.

We don’t just offer insurance. We provide the ultimate lifestyle solution.

For many people, an off-the-shelf policy or one you can buy online is not going to be sufficient to provide you, your family and prized possessions the specialist cover and service you require. We can arrange for a confidential consultation at a time that suites you. Just let us know when you would like a call back and we will be in touch shortly.

Art and Antiques The key benefits of fine art insurance

Art, antiques and other valuable articles are often acquired over many years and can reflect a hobby or passion. At Ascend we understand how precious these items can be to you and we are determined to help you find the best cover for your needs.

The Metropolitan Police estimate that in the UK alone, Arts and Antiques theft stands at around £3bn annually. Fine Art Insurance is vital to protect your investment.

At Ascend we can arrange a wide variety of Fine Art Insurance or Antiques Insurance for individual collectors, private dealers and exhibitors so whether you collect art for pleasure or buy antiques to sell on, your collection is protected against all kinds of risk.

• When a popular artist dies, the paintings they created in their lifetime are then in limited supply, meaning that they can sometimes increase dramatically in value. If you have one of the pieces of art, then insurance for it is essential.
• When a painting flies, it doesn’t ‘live it up’ in first class. Instead, art is often consigned to the same fate as lowly economy seat holder’s suitcases: the hold. Therefore, your art or antiques will need the best cover should something happen to it while in transport.
• Automatic acquisitions cover for new additions.
• Worldwide cover against physical loss or damage.
