Question: how do I move jewish jewelry?

Answer: I have no idea why moving jewish jewelry is different than any other small valuables items needs extra special care, but anyway let’s blog about it. The information below taken from Emperor Jewelry website.

Jewish jewelry is more than just decoration. Although the beautiful gold earrings, pendants and bracelets are great fashion accessories for any outfit, Jewish jewelry carries meaning within. Their shapes and forms are drawn from sacred geometry, and are potent symbols of love, prosperity and protection. Beauty and meaning, fashion and gold come together in forms pleasing to the eye and the soul. We offer an extensive collection of Jewish jewelry which showcases fine craftsmanship and exquisite materials.

Star of David
 
Lovely gold earrings, pendants and bracelet charms show your faith and add the power of gold to your fashion statement. This symbol is based on the shape of Emperor David¹s shield and is also a traditional good luck charm in the Middle East. The interlock triangles point both to heaven and to the real world, showing others that your pure intentions are grounded with humility and worldly wisdom. The simple star design also adds a touch of understated class to your outfits.

Hamesh Hand/Hamsa Hand
 
The Hamesh hand is a common protective charm against the evil eye, and works equally well as an earring, pendant or charm. Our gold Hamesh hand charms are available in several sizes, so you can match the charm to your bracelet. Hamesh hand pendants attract the attention you want with the shine of gold and precious and semi-precious stones. We also have Hamesh hand earrings with post or hook fasteners.

Tell us what you think!

Accessorial (Additional) Services - services such as packing, unpacking, or shuttle service that you request to be performed (or are necessary because of landlord requirements or other special circumstances). Charges for these services are in addition to the transportation charges.
Advanced Charges - charges for services not performed by the mover but instead by a professional, craftsman or other third party at your request. The charges for these services are paid for by the mover and added to your bill of lading charges.
Bill of Lading - the receipt for your goods and the contract for their transportation. It is your responsibility to understand the bill of lading before you sign it. If you do not agree with something on the bill of lading, do not sign it until you are satisfied that it is correct. The bill of lading is an important document. Don’t lose or misplace your copy.
Binding/Non-Binding Estimate - a binding estimate is an agreement made in advance with the mover that guarantees the total cost of the move based on the quantities and services shown on the estimate. A non-binding estimate is the carrier’s approximation of the cost based on the estimated weight of the shipment and the accessorial services requested. A non-binding estimate is not binding on the carrier and the final charges will be based on the actual weight and tariff provisions in effect.
Guaranteed Pickup and Delivery Service - an additional level of service whereby dates of service are guaranteed, with the mover providing reimbursement for delays. This premium service is often subject to minimum weight requirements.
High Value Article - items included in a shipment that are valued at more than $100 per pound. These items should be disclosed to the mover to ensure that they are protected accordingly.
Inventory - the detailed descriptive list of your household goods showing the number and condition of each item.
Transportation Charges - charges for the vehicle transportation portion of your move. These charges apply in addition to the additional service charges.
Order for Service - the document authorizing the mover to transport your household goods.
Pickup and Delivery Charges - separate transportation charges applicable for transporting your shipment between the warehouse and your residence.
Shuttle Service - use of a smaller vehicle to provide service to residences that are not accessible to the mover’s normal linehaul equipment (large moving vans).
Storage-In-Transit (SIT) - temporary warehouse storage of your shipment pending further transportation; for example, if your new home isn’t quite ready to occupy. Added charges for SIT service and final delivery charges from the warehouse will apply.
Valuation - the degree of “worth” of the shipment. The valuation charge that you are assessed compensates the mover for assuming a greater degree of liability than that provided for in the base transportation charges.
