It is important to honor your tastes and habits when it comes to storing your 22ct gold jewellery, but it's also necessary to be knowledgeable about some things that can damage your jewellery with time. Here is the compiled a list of some of the most significant things to remember when you're storing your precious jewellery.

Avoid Extreme Temperatures & Humidity

 Don't store your jewellery in a hot and stuffy attic or a drafty cold closet. Store it at room temperature out of direct sunlight. Pick a location that maintains a constant low humidity to help prevent any discoloration and premature tarnishing. Different types of jewellery are most vulnerable to damage from humidity and temperature than others.

Purchase a jewellery Box With a Soft Lining

There are a lot of wooden and hard plastic jewellery organiser boxes out there, but for the fine jewellery, find something that has a soft fabric lining. This way if you drop your jewellery in quickly, you won't risk damaging your gemstones or metal. Make sure the jewellery box you purchase has enough spots to store all of your items without being clumped together. Clumps of jewellery are such a nightmare to sort through.

Store Clean Jewelry in a Clean Location

This tip is for all jewellery but especially for a costume, silver, and gold-filled jewellery. The last thing you need to do is store a corroded green piece of copper jewellery that share so many memories of past. Not only could this corroded, musty smell transfer to your other jewellery, but it will make your other jewellery tarnish quicker, and even become corroded itself.

Use Hooks to Hang Necklaces

Most jewellery armoires have doors on either side that have nice hooks for hanging necklaces on. It is essential that you keep your necklaces hung vertically to prevent knotting and kinking. If you don't have a jewellery armoire, try a DIY solution. Use push-pins for the 'hooks' to hang your necklaces and bracelets on. If you decide to use a jewellery stand, be sure the stand should be tall enough, so your accessories don't touch the ground.

Store Your Diamonds and Gemstones ALONE

Diamonds are the hardest material and capable of scratching any other material like gold, silver. Now, maybe you don't certainly have to store your diamonds in a cubby, but you should make sure your diamonds aren't brushing up against any other jewellery items.
