How To Care For Your Jewelry At Home

By Molly Hinges


Always shop around when buying a diamond. Take a look at the diamonds up close, then put it next to other pieces you are interested in. Be careful of tricks that jewelers use to make a diamond look bigger or better.

If you are selling your jewelry online, make sure it is presented attractively. An online buyer doesn't get the opportunity to handle the jewelry, so photos of the piece have to speak for themselves. Take photos of your jewelry in a place where the focus is on the piece instead of the background.

Necklaces often get tangled, so consider buying stylish robe hooks with embellishments to hang them and keep them untangled. You can hang your necklaces in a row and separate them by color and length. Hanging your necklaces will keep them looking nice, keep them from becoming tangled together and can work as a beautiful display as well.

Think about the outfits you will wear it with when you buy a piece of jewelry. What's the fun in buying jewelry you never actually wear? When you are picking the jewelry out, think about the clothes you will be wearing.

Decide exactly what role you want your jewelry to play when you are coordinating it with your clothes. Do you want your jewelry to be the centerpiece or just an embellishment for a fantastic overall ensemble?

You can make money from any gold bracelets and necklaces you have, without having to sell your entire pieces. Just cut off any excess. If you have enough of these pieces, you can clip off so little that people won't even notice the difference. If what you have truly is real god then with just a few chains the potential to make money is there. You can actually make around a few hundred when you shorten these type of pieces.

Buying jewelry that is used can be extremely cost effective. Used jewelry is often in great condition and costs far less than a new piece, which means that a person will get more bang for his buck.

You need to learn the best ways to take care of your jewelry. The variety of stones, metals and assorted settings will determine the ways in which you care for them. A technique that is effective for one type of stone or metal may actually cause damage to another. Ask a jeweler to make sure you know how to maintain your items.

Before committing yourself to a piece, do research to determine which styles are hot and which are not. The only thing that beats getting a new piece of jewelry is getting it for a discounted price!

When you are purchasing expensive jewelry, you should remind yourself that this is an investment that you will want to wear for many years. High-priced jewelry is usually high in quality, but don't forget to consider styles. Even if everyone is wearing a piece at the moment, it might look outdated next year. Decide on timeless pieces that will stay in fashion.

The birthstone for the month of July, popular rubies were once believed to possess magical powers. While true rubies are always red, there are a myriad shades of red from vivid deep rose pinks to nearly maroon. They are very durable and can resist being hit and stand up to many chemicals. The combination of their beauty and their strength make them a great choice for jewelry.
