Jewelry storage: how to proceed?


Above all, you don’t need to be methodical to start organizing jewelry except to sort them by category. We recommend sorting them based on the materials they are made from. For example, your rings might be stored in the same box and touch each other. Storing gold with gold and silver with silver prevents chemical reactions between materials over time. Then, choose and adopt the method(s) that suit you best. Jewelry storage: here’s a quick recap of the most common techniques to help you get started.

  • First, the jewelry box, essential and mysterious. There are endless varieties with more or fewer compartments. Only some necklaces and bracelets won’t find their proper place there. It’s best to choose a compartmentalized box to separate different pieces and prevent them from tangling.
  • Second, the jewelry dish, practical and fun . Shaped like a pineapple or a cloud, it is mainly suitable for storing rings in an original jewelry organizer.
  • Third, the jewelry tree, decorative and tall . Necklaces, bracelets, rings, and some earrings can easily be hung there.
  • Fourth, the jewelry drawer, specific and spacious . When its interior is organized and divided, you can store all types of jewelry. A must-have if you prefer not to have anything lying around.

The little extra

If you only have one storage space: consider protecting each piece of jewelry individually, preferably in thin pouches . This way, they will be protected from air and tangling. Plus, it’s also easy to take them on trips later! Indeed, individualizing them helps maintain their shine and prevents any tangling that could damage them.
