By Precious Aguiza


Looking for the best quality information about jewelry for your daily needs may be a challenging task. Of course not all the jewelry information out there will be relevant to you. The good news is that some of the best advice has been provided for you in this article.

Watch how you store your jewelry when it isn't being worn. It's better to keep pieces separate by using boxes, holders, hooks and other containers. Resist the temptation to jumble all your pieces into a community box. Not only will your necklaces become hopelessly tangled, you risk harming any fragile pieces as they bump and scrape against each other as you search the box.

Pay close attention to the design and style of their earrings, which may be hoops, gauges, studs, or something new. He or she may also have a preference towards gold, silver, or a different material. This will help you get started in your search for the perfect item of jewelry for your loved one.

Prevent your jewelry from tarnishing so that it keeps looking great. Jewelry should not be worn near the water. Many metals can become tarnished, rusty or dull when exposed to water too often. Applying a very thin covering of clear nail varnish to your jewelry offers an added degree of protection.

If you want to buy sterling silver pieces, use a magnet and examine the jewelry very carefully. To spot scams, see if the magnet attracts the piece. If it does, then shout "FAKE!" at the top of your lungs and move to the next store. True sterling sliver always has some sort of hallmark stamp on it, such as .925, sterling or ster. If the piece is not hallmarked in any way, be leery of its authenticity because oftentimes it is a sign of a fake.

Wear the jewelry piece for a day so that you can get an idea of how comfortable it is and if it hangs right. This also helps you to see its durability.

Have a unique piece of jewelry made for the special person on your gift list. A one-of-a-kind jewelry piece is a great way to show someone how much they mean to you.

Even knotted necklaces with delicate loops can be untangled. You can easily give up on a knotted mass of metal, but instead grab some plastic wrap. Put the necklace onto a wrap, and place mineral or baby oil on it. It is possible to untangle very snarled necklaces with a needle. Wash with dish soap and pat dry.

Have a purpose in mind before shopping for jewelry. You should not have a lot of jewelery that you are never going to put on. Take a look in your closet and consider what outfits your jewelry will accessorize.

When selling a piece of jewelry online, you should aim to present the piece in an attractive manner. Visuals are particularly important because customers cannot physically see or touch jewelery when they buy online. It is essential that the jewelry be placed on a background that does not draw the attention away from the piece.

The brooch will call attention to your belt and make it more interesting to look at. You have the option of placing it close to your hip, or at your waist near the center.

Use attractive robe hooks to hang your necklaces, keeping them tangle-free. You can hang a whole row of these small pieces of hardware along a wall or the back of a closet door, then hang your necklaces in groups by color or length. This little display looks appealing and keeps chains from tangling at the same time.

If you want to get better at purchasing, wearing and caring for your jewelry, you have to stay educated. Now that some of the learning has been taken care of, enjoy some time looking for the right jewelry for you. Remember the tips that you have read today, and you will only find success in your jewelry endeavors.
