Does jewelry insurance cover all of my jewelry?

Jewelry insurers typically don't provide blanket coverage for a policyholder's entire jewelry collection (though less expensive jewelry may be covered under personal property coverage on your homeowners insurance). Instead, you must add each item you want covered to your policy, typically alongside an appraisal or receipt stating its value. As long as the jewelry is listed on your policy, your insurer may cover it for theft, damage, and loss.
