FIVE THINGS YOU MUST DO WITH YOUR JEWELLERY India is a country that has always been famous for two things, spices and gold. Before it’s colonization, the immense amount of gold on the Indian land made people call it the “Golden Bird”. Naturally, what came with this vast reserve of gold was a habit to flaunt them on your body. The kings and rulers, who held the majority of gold in their own hands, were the ones who could be seen covered with gold ornaments from top to bottom. Furthermore, cities like Jaipur, with some of the most powerful rulers, held a major chunk of the total gold in India. Making jewellery and ornaments was a royal tradition here, and eventually, Jaipur became one of the best Indian cities to find quality jewellers and jewellery. But, the habit of flaunting jewellery is something that is still embedded in Indian tradition and so you won’t find a single Indian household without some sort of jewellery if they can afford it. It is said that Indian women hold more gold than the rest of the world. But one doesn’t find a lot of occasions to wear ornaments. Therefore, here in this article, we have listed five things that you must do with your jewellery when it’s sitting inside a shelf.

1) Clean Your Jewellery Even though jewellery is not something that is used intermittently, having to wear ornaments that don’t shine is not what you buy them for. Also, since one does not frequently takes out their safely kept pieces of precious metals, it’s highly likely that you might find out that your jewellery doesn’t look the way you intend it to, at the last hour. To avoid any of such mishaps, you should tend to your jewellery now and then. Jewellery can slowly lose its appeal, owing to the everyday dust and dirt and cleaning it is the only way to prevent that from happening. You can get your jewellery cleaned by jewellers, or you can do it at home, whichever you prefer. There are numerous ways to clean jewellery at home which you can easily learn from the internet. Also, you can get your hands on one of the jewellery cleaning wipes that are tailor-made for this very purpose. What is essential is that your jewellery gets the care it needs.

2) Organize Your Jewellery What use is a good jewellery set if you cannot find every piece of it at the right time? Not getting to wear the earring you want to an occasion, because you cannot find both the pieces is not something you would want to go through. Therefore, you must organize your jewellery in a way that you don’t misplace any of its pieces. Organizing jewellery should not be much of a task as long as you have the right storage. You can find plenty of tips and tutorials online to guide


you through your jewellery organization. What is important is that you take care of your jewellery by keeping it organized so that you don’t ever have to worry about a misplaced ornament.

3) Selling what is no longer needed. Although no one wants to sell their prized possessions, keeping something as precious as gold or platinum inside a shelf without putting it to good use is also not a very wise thing to do. Separating the jewellery you don’t use anymore from the ones you do and selling it, is another thing that you can do with your jewellery. This will not only help you get rid of unused items but will also give you that extra amount of cash to buy stuff that you need. So, if you do have some piece of jewellery that is kept unused, selling it might be a good option for you.

4) Upgrading your jewellery. Not everyone wants to sell the precious ornaments that they bought with their hard-earned money. If that is the case with you, yet you do have the jewellery you no longer use just because they are outdated, you always have the option of remoulding it to something more modern and compatible with the current trend. By doing so, you can get new and updated piece of ornaments without burning a hole in your pocket.

5) Monetizing your jewellery Monetizing the jewellery you have instead of keeping it inside a safe is probably the best use you can put it to. Generally, people keep their jewellery inside a safe at home or store it in bank lockers for which they are charged the maintenance fees. But there is a third option as well. Government has recently launched, what is called the Gold Monetization Scheme, under which you can keep your jewellery in a Gold monetization account and earn interest on it according to the market price. This scheme is launched with the benefit of both, the Indian households as well as the Indian Government in mind and is the best way to keep your precious metals safe.
