Storage Tips for Your Customers
Tell your customers:
- Keep the box closed when not wearing
- Add a fresh silica gel packet every 6 months
- Don’t store in bathroom — humidity is too high
- Clean jewelry before storage — oils accelerate tarnish
- Store each piece separately — prevents scratching
- Keep away from direct sunlight — fades gemstones
Common Protection Mistakes
- No anti-tarnish lining for silver — Silver tarnishes in 2–3 months
- Too much silica gel — Over-drying can crack pearls
- No individual compartments — Necklaces tangle, pieces scratch
- Storing in humid bathroom — Jewelry tarnishes faster
- Cheap lining material — Rough fabric scratches fine jewelry
- No humidity control for watches — Watch movements can be damaged
