Legal Question in Consumer Law in Ohio

I live in Ohio. I had a ring valued at $5000 stolen from a safe at a jewelry store during an armed robbery. This happened in July and the owner is stating that his insurance company has not paid him yet. My question is how do I find out who his insurance company is???

The identity of the insurance company for the jewelry store isn't relevant. The jewelry store is the entity owing you the money, and if their insurance company isn't going to cover the loss, then the jewelry store will have to.

You have a right at this point to sue the jewelry store. You may have claims for relief sounding in breach of contract, bailment, negligence, and possibly under the Consumer Sales Practices Act.
