Storage of Jewelry
Jewelry is vulnerable while it is being worn, although it can also suffer damage if it is not stored properly.
General guidelines:
- Diamond is the hardest substance on Earth. So how does a diamond get scratched? By another diamond. Diamond jewelry can also scratch softer stones as well as gold and even platinum. For this reason, it is important to store your jewelry so these pieces DO NOT come in contact with each other.
- Wrap individual pieces in tissue or cloth or put them in separate compartments in a jewelry box. Be extra careful with pearl jewelry since it is soft and scratches more easily than gems and metals.
- Often jewelry comes in a special box, bag or wrap. Keep these; they are often the best means for storing the jewelry and will provide protection from damage and dirt.
