Safe storage first and foremost<\/b><\/h2>\n
 <\/b><\/div>\n

The first criterion to take into account when preserving your valuable jewellery is its security. It is strongly recommended that you store them in a safe, especially for the rarest or most expensive pieces. A home safe must be fixed to prevent theft and ideally fireproof to protect the jewellery from any domestic incidents. If you have a large collection, consider renting a bank safe, an ideal solution for pieces you wear occasionally.<\/p>\n

For everyday storage, choose a quality jewellery box with a velvet or suede interior to prevent scratches. Each piece of jewellery must be separated from the others<\/b> to avoid rubbing, especially rings with precious stones that can scratch softer metals.<\/p>\n

Adapting storage to different materials<\/span><\/h2>\n

Not all jewellery has the same preservation requirements. L'or<\/a> and the turntable<\/a> are resistant metals, but they can be scratched if stored unprotected. The diamonds<\/a>are extremely hard and can damage other stones or metals if they come into direct contact.<\/p>\n

The pearls<\/a> require special care. They are sensitive to air and should be stored flat in a silk-lined case. Avoid storing them in airtight boxes, as they need humidity to prevent them from drying out.<\/p>\n

Jewellery made of <\/b>silver<\/a>They oxidise over time. We recommend storing them in anti-oxidation fabric pouches and adding a small strip of chalk or a piece of activated charcoal to the box to absorb ambient humidity.<\/p>\n
