5 Tips For Storing Fine Jewelry


Fine jewelry is fun to wear and can be a great investment, but if it is not stored properly it can easily become damaged. If you want to continue to wear your favorite pieces of jewelry for many years to come, it is important to care for it and store it in the right way. Use the following tips for storing your fine jewelry:

Have a Dedicated Area for Jewelry Storage

When you have fine jewelry it is essential to have a place to store it-- the last thing you want is to leave jewelry sitting on top of your dresser or on the bathroom counter where it can become lost or damaged. Choose a quality jewelry box or a jewelry chest with a variety of drawers that can be used to store different types of jewelry. You can also use drawer inserts by Lovely Jewelry Organizers to help organize your jewelry.

Keep Your Jewelry Clean

After wearing a piece of fine jewelry, it is important to clean it before you put it away. Use a soft cloth to wipe off each piece of jewelry after you wear it in order to remove dirt, sweat, and skin oils. Doing this can help your jewelry last longer, while also making it look nicer when you wear it.

Do Not Store All Your Jewelry Together

Organization is key when it comes to storing jewelry. Avoid placing necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings all in the same compartment when you are not wearing them, Doing so can cause your jewelry to become tangled or scratched. It is a much better idea to invest in a few jewelry drawer organizers that will allow you to have a compartment for each type of jewelry that you own.

Keep Jewelry Away from Heat

Being exposed to heat can damage jewelry over time, and some gemstones and precious metals can even become discolored if they are not kept at room temperature. Make sure that your jewelry box or jewelry chest is not in an area of your bedroom that is constantly exposed to sun, as this can raise the internal temperature inside and may harm your jewelry. 

Invest in Anti-Tarnish Strips

If you have a lot of jewelry to store, it is in your best interest to invest in some anti-tarnish strips to place in your jewelry box or jewelry chest. Anti-tarnish strips are special pieces of paper that are very absorbent and can help keep jewelry from becoming tarnished and discolored while it is being stored.

A Birthday Surprise

In a few, short weeks, my mom will celebrate her sixtieth birthday. Sadly, my mom’s health hasn’t been the best lately. In fact, she is currently recovering from a recent surgery. To show her how much I care about her, I want to buy my mom something special for her birthday this year. I’m shopping for a beautiful, emerald pendant. I want to buy a pendant to match the ring my dad bought my mom a few years ago. Because the princess cut stone in the ring is set in white gold, I would also like to find a pendant set in white gold.
