Security If you do not have a jewelry box, the boxes being used at jewelry stores are great to store your jewelry in when it is not being worn. A good recommendation is that you have a fine jewelry case to store your jewelry in one compact area. This makes it easily accessible to you to retrieve and store your jewelry. Convenience is the key objective at times. And this convenience may be costly at first, but you will find that it will keep your jewelry in fine condition if you purchase the right jewelry box. There are so many to choose from ranging from wood to plastic, to marble and carved designs, to the simplest design – cardboard. When purchasing a jewelry box the thing to keep in mind is that you want something that will allow you to lay your chains and bracelets out flat, as well as your watches. Have your rings stored where they will not be rubbed or abraded by the top of the jewelry box. It should be large enough to expand with your purchases of fine jewelry, yet compact enough to be easily stored or hidden away if you should travel away from home. If you should go on vacation, and have a large amount of fine jewelry, you might consider a bank vault or safety deposit box to store your jewelry and collectibles while you are away. This is not to be in lieu of insurance. When traveling with jewelry: · Don't pack jewelry in luggage you plan to check. · Never leave jewelry in a hotel or motel room. · Whenever possible, place jewelry in a safety-deposit box when you are not wearing it, even for part of a day. · If you are not wearing your jewelery but find it necessary to carry your jewelry with you then use a "body pouch" concealed under your clothing. Never go sight-seeing with valuables in a purse or pocket. An insurance rider policy on your homeowner’s insurance is always an excellent idea. For your piece of mind and security in knowing that if a jewelry item is lost, stolen, damaged, or any other peril, that is will be repaired or replaced at the cost of the insurance company – not from your pocket. Insurance is a very key and important aspect that you don’t want you to overlook. Many have thought that they were insured under a blanket policy and have discovered that they were covered for certain things with very small limits and very high deductibles. A rider policy usually has no deductibles and covers the jewelry item in full for most every peril.
