Easy Ways To Safeguard Your Jewellery This Monsoon
1. Separate Boxes
Not just because of monsoons, it is never advisable to mix all your metals and keep them together. When it comes to jewellery such as pearls, gold, always keep them in separate boxes. If mixed, you may find some scratches. Try velvet pouches that have an anti-tarnishing property. These types of bags protect your jewellery from moisture in the air.
2. Don't Let It Get Wet
Keep the jewellery away from water as much as possible. It can tarnish them and give a dull look. However, if you're cleaning your jewellery, use warm water so that the polish stays intact for longer times.
3. Pay Extra Attention To Silver Jewellery
During monsoons, silver jewellery needs more care and attention. As this jewellery is more prone to get tarnished and lose its shine in humid temperatures, make sure that the container that stores silver jewellery is moisture resistant. Add small silica gel packets in your jewellery boxes to keep them in sheen.

4. Use Muslin Cloth
Muslin cloth works well when you're storing gold jewellery. What you should do is always clean your gold jewellery after wearing it. Finally, wrap it in muslin. You may use toothpaste, baking soda and a soft brush for this. But make sure you do not do this for imitation jewellery.
5. Wipe Diamond Jewellery
The only precaution you need to take is that when you come back home you should wipe the diamonds with a soft cloth to dry the water. Blow-dry the jewellery manually to dry even the slightest of moisture. However, do not use an electronic blow dryer.
