       JEWELRY CARE GENERAL TIPS  
 Caring for jewelry is a necessary part of owning the jewelry. Fine jewelry is a precious possession that is designed and crafted to last a lifetime; therefore, its proper care will assure the lasting qualities of your jewelry. With proper care, your jewelry will bring you continued satisfaction over the years.

General tips to help you know how to care for your jewelry include:
    . Store your jewelry in a clean, dry place. Keep your jewelry in a jewelry case, or in a box with compartments. Do not jumble your jewelry pieces together because they can scratch each other.
    . Avoid wearing fine jewelry when you are performing manual labor tasks, such as housework and rough work.
    . Clean your jewelry periodically to ensure its fine appearance and help it last.
    . Do not forget to see your jeweler at least once a year and have him check your jewelry pieces for loose prongs and wear of  mountings.

   Protecting your jewelry
How safe is your jewelry? Where do you keep it when you're not wearing it? Is it really safe in your home?
The majority of thefts occur when workers, guests or friends are in your home, and your jewelry is visible or accessible for them to steal. In addition, burglars are known to case neighborhoods looking for opportunities to steal. They look for uncut lawns, newspapers on the doorstep, no cars in the driveway--signs that indicate you aren't home or you've been away for awhile. Some thieves even have the nerve to knock on your door to see if anybody's home.
Security for your jewelry and other valuables in your home is a matter of attitude; realize that all neighborhoods are vulnerable to burglaries. Your home could be a target if a thief feels you have valuables worth stealing and there's easy access to your valuables.
Surprisingly, most burglaries occur during the day, not at night. Burglaries also are more frequent when doors and windows are unlocked, whether or not people are at home. Think about this: How easy would it be for a burglar to slip into your home unnoticed and steal your valuables if you were occupied in another part of the house, outside in the garden, or mowing the lawn? It could only take a minute!
You can protect your jewelry and other precious possessions by taking these steps:
•    Install good locks on your doors and windows and establish family procedures for locking them. Most burglaries would be eliminated if people had properly locked doors and windows. When practical, keep your doors locked at all times, and always when you leave. If you have children who need quick entry, consider having them use a back door or a door that is routinely monitored.
•    Make your house look lived in--keep the lawn groomed and pick up your mail and newspapers daily.
•    When not wearing your jewelry, put it in a secure place, such as a home safe or a safe-deposit box. If you don't have these, choose a secure hiding place in your home, preferably a locked compartment that is immobile. Jewelry boxes and dresser drawers, as well as almost any other spot in bedrooms, are probably the first places a thief will look for your valuables. Consider storing infrequently worn jewelry in a bank safe-deposit box. Choose a hiding place that is inconspicuous, yet convenient for you.
•    Remove your jewelry and place it in a safe location before gardening, playing sports, or performing difficult chores around your home.
•    When traveling, store unworn jewelry in the hotel's safe-deposit box.
•    Never leave jewelry in your luggage to be transported by airlines, cruise lines, or other public transportation.
•    If you bump or catch your jewelry, inspect it immediately for missing stones or damaged prongs. Take extra care when removing gloves. If you suspect damage, place the jewelry in a safe place until you can take it to a jeweler for inspection and repair.
•    Never trust putting jewelry in your pockets. Even pockets with zippers can be susceptible to opening.
•    Do not set jewelry items on an open surface such as a sink, counter or public area. They can be forgotten, lost or even stolen.
•    Have your jeweler inspect your jewelry on a regular basis. This is especially true for items you wear frequently. Sometimes, small problems - like loose stones, worn or damaged prongs, faulty clasps - can be detected and repaired before they turn into bigger problems. Since jewelry values periodically change, these inspections also allow your jeweler the opportunity to make sure your jewelry is properly valued for replacement purposes.
Finally, insure your jewelry to assure that you can replace it if it is lost, stolen, or damaged.
