Shields Engagement Rings

Your Shield collection engagement ring will arrive with an IGI appraisal that will validate the quality of the materials and estimate a replacement value. We work directly with the International Gemological Institute (IGI) to have your ring graded and documented in an appraisal that will arrive with your ring. IGI is the leading global appraisal lab for fine jewelry and engagement rings. IGI’s process also includes a screening to confirm that every diamond is natural and not lab grown. Your center diamond will be graded by GIA, and that certificate will also be included in the delivery of your ring. IGI’s independent appraisal is all the paperwork you need to secure insurance for your jewelry. We recommend working with Jeweler’s Mutual to secure an insurance policy upon receiving your ring. They specialize in jewelry and engagement ring insurance and we are also a policy holder of theirs so your ring would be sent back to us to remake in a worst case scenario.
