Individual attention without reservation
Few possessions carry the sentimental value—or the inherent risk—of jewelry and timepieces. Whether your heirlooms are in a vault or worn every day, our coverage provides the security of knowing their value is protected by covering mysterious disappearance, pairs and sets, and protection against market appreciation.
Legendary service, storied knowledge
On the road, on the track, or in storage, rare automobiles face risks that set them apart from other valuables. Whether you own a single car or a garage full of classics, Treadwell will help protect the value of your investment, leveraging our exclusive network of industry connections to get you back behind the wheel after a claim.
Universal consideration with personal touch
Coins, model trains, musical instruments, haute couture—whatever your fascination, Treadwell will protect your collection’s value. If a loss occurs, we will engage the best experts available in your specific collecting genre to ensure a fully-informed recovery.
Patrons
Private Collectors
Our personal collections policy was designed to cover virtually any collection type—from art to xylophones—and fill the coverage gaps left by typical homeowners policies. For optimum flexibility choose between agreed value or blanket coverage options.
Institutions
Displaying items of historical or cultural significance for public view requires protection that meets the specific characteristics of the setting and consideration for contingencies like frequent loans. For these risks, Treadwell can provide bespoke coverage solutions including large excess layers for temporary exhibitions.
Corporate Collections
The art hanging on the walls of a corporation is more than décor; it is cultural patrimony and part of a company’s assets. Look to Treadwell to provide collection protection above and beyond what is provided by a business property insurance policy for contents coverage.
Galleries
Well-established art gallerists need extra capacity for seminal exhibitions, artist’s archives, and high-level events. Put your trust in Treadwell.
