Formal insurance documentation requires that your jewelry item be left for thorough testing and evaluation. Mills Jewelers will provide you with high definition magnified photos of your jewelry along with detailed claim receipts at the time of take in. Your jewelry is fully insured while on our premises and never leaves our store.
We require certificates of origin through the “Kimberly Process” to insure all diamonds from Mills Jewelers are “Conflict Free.”
