What belongs on FL-142 item 3
Material jewelry, fine art, antiques, collections, luxury goods and scheduled valuables in either party’s possession or control.
Use a description that a second reviewer can match to a statement, title record, contract or the opposing disclosure. Record the value state—known, estimated, unknown, pending or none—instead of treating every empty cell as zero.
The source record for jewelry, art, antiques and collectibles
- Insurance schedule and item photographs
- Purchase receipt, provenance or gift record
- Qualified current appraisal using the stated market
- Storage, consignment or custody records
Completeness checks before service
- Confirm every jewelry, art, antiques and collectibles item has an identifier and custodian or location.
- Tie every amount to an as-of date and retain the source.
- List disputed and unvalued items visibly rather than excluding them.
- Recompute the form totals from the underlying rows and check for duplication.
What moves forward
The ledger entry must preserve its form item, date, value, debt, asserted character and evidence status. That same identity carries into characterization, valuation, negotiation and any final transfer. Insurance replacement value, auction estimate, dealer offer and fair-market appraisal are not interchangeable. Record the valuation premise, date and who physically inspected the item.
Questions about this topic
What is the biggest disclose mistake for jewelry, art, antiques and collectibles?
Omitting or combining the item so it cannot be matched to its source.
Can the workspace decide this disclose issue automatically?
It can preserve facts, run arithmetic and expose assumptions. Disputed legal conclusions, professional valuations and third-party transfer decisions still require the appropriate human or institution.
