This article can guide you to just the right piece. Take a moment to consider how your valuable jewelry is stored and sorted.

Heavy pieces should not be placed in the same compartment with fragile pieces. The metals in jewelry can tarnish if exposed to humid air, so you will want to store them in a way that protects them. A box designed especially for jewelry gives the best protection, but a cloth bag can also work. Air and humidity can cause the metals that the jewelry are made of to tarnish.
