How To Store Gold Jewelry

When it comes to protecting your gold jewelry and keeping its first day shine, proper storage is key. Gold is delicate so its shine and allure can fade over time without proper care and maintenance. But don’t worry, in this blog post, we will talk about how to store your gold jewelry properly and safely, so that you can enjoy it for years to come.

Separate by Metal

One of the most important things when it comes to storing jewelry is separating your jewelry by metal and gemstones. Gold is a soft metal, so it’s prone to scratching easily. Certain gemstones like diamonds are hard, and will damage and scratch softer gemstones. So always make sure to separate your jewelry by metal and gemstones.

Individual Pouches or Boxes

The easiest way to store your gold jewelry, especially gold chains, is by keeping it in the jewelry box it came in when you bought it. But this would take a lot of space if you have multiple pieces, so individual pouches would work great as well. Individual pouches prevent your chains from scratching against each other and from tangling. They are cheap and small too, so it’s a great way to safely store your gold jewelry.

Jewelry Box

The most common place to store your gold jewelry in is in a jewelry box. Most jewelry boxes have special hooks to hang chains and necklaces, but that’s generally not a good idea. This is because there is a strong chance that gold chains and necklaces, especially thin ones, will tangle if hung together. A better way to store chains and necklaces in a jewelry box is to individually place them in a pouch or soft cloth, and placing them in the jewelry box. Or, if your jewelry box has compartments with fabric lining, then you can simply store your chains and necklaces this way. For smaller pieces like gold rings, earring, and pendants, you can place them in the jewelry box directly, as long as your jewelry box has fabric lining. But even for smaller pieces, make sure to place them in separate compartments to prevent scratching.

Fabric Lining

Whatever or wherever you choose to store your gold jewelry in, make sure it has fabric lining. This will keep metals and gemstones from scratching or chipping inside of the jewelry box.

Be Mindful of Humidity

Humidity is one of the things you should be careful about. Gold can tarnish when exposed to moisture, so it’s one of the main things you should avoid. To prevent this, store your gold jewelry in a dry, cool place. You can also use silica gel packets to absorb excess moisture in wherever you store your jewelry.

Safety Deposit Box

If you have particularly expensive pieces, like this Diamond Edge Cuban Link Chain in 29.25ctw diamonds, then you may want to consider a safety deposit box to keep your jewelry safe from potential scratching, chipping, and theft. You can find these security safes for around $50, so it’s a good investment to keep your investment safe. But don’t forget to put your jewelry in a box or pouch before placing it in the safety deposit box!
