Prevent Scratches, Nicks, and Tangles

Placing silver jewelry in separate compartments not only prevents tarnish, it protects the soft metal from nicks and scratches. (jewelry silversmith blanks) If possible, put every piece of jewelry into a separate compartment, or at least keep those pieces with sharp edges away from the others. Sharp edges can scratch gemstones and other soft metals. (jewelry silversmith blanks)

Necklaces and loose bracelets are notorious for becoming tangled and knotted. (jewelry silversmith blanks) To prevent this, make sure each necklace or bracelet is firmly clasped before putting it in the box. (jewelry silversmith blanks) Either hang them from hooks inside the box or lay them flat in a single layer inside a drawer. Never stack delicate necklaces on top of each other.

Locks Keep Jewelry Out of Prying Hands(jewelry silversmith blanks)

A lock can prevent your jewelry from disappearing if you have small children and your jewelry box is within their reach. (jewelry silversmith blanks) Overly curious cats can also pose a danger to your jewelry. When choosing a box with a locking latch, make sure the lock fits snugly, but isn’t hard to release. (jewelry silversmith blanks) The key to the lock, whether it’s a latch or a different type of lock, should turn easily and slide out without tugging. (jewelry silversmith blanks)

If you value your jewelry, keep it in a jewelry box. It could become tarnished, scratched, broken , or even lost if left lying on the dresser. (jewelry silversmith blanks)
