Almost all women and men will take some sort of valuable jewelry with them when they are traveling. Especially with women, jewelry is something you are not leaving home without. It is just as important as clothes and make up, at least it is to most of us. Here are a few smart things to keep in mind when you do travel with your expensive jewelry.
Pack your jewelry in a container designed for jewelry storage so your necklaces, rings, and other pieces do not tangle or rub together unnecessarily, this will keep your items from scratching each other. A mini ultra sonic jewelry cleaner is a handy item to take when you are traveling. You can clean your pieces to keep them looking great while you are traveling. Do not take more of your quality jewelry with you than you might need. Take pieces that are versatile and will go with a lot of different clothing. When getting to your destination, keep your jewelry either in your purse or in your carry on luggage. This will help prevent it from being lost or stolen on your way.
Most importantly make sure your insurance will cover the jewelry you take with you. Some policies will not pay off if your jewelry is lost or stolen while traveling, this is very important. While no one ever plans on this happening, it does a lot more than you might think. Make sure your lodgings will have safety deposit storage available. Keep the jewelry you are not wearing safe while you are out of your room. Even in quality establishments thefts can happen.
Do not wear expensive jewelry while you are site seeing. Robbers can be very sneaky and tourists are the number one target for most of them almost anywhere you might travel to. You never want to present yourself as a tempting target. It is much better to be safe than flash around your expensive jewelry unnecessarily.
If you are going to indulge in outdoor activities like sunbathing, swimming, or other like activities, do not wear good jewelry. Suntan oils and lotions will dirty your gem stones and metals, as well as your own body oils and sweat. Some jewelry like pearls can be especially sensitive to these types of things. If your jewelry does get dirty anyway, this is why you brought the handy ultra sonic cleaner, but remember, not all jewelry is safe to use in an ultra sonic.
It is just using good common sense to take as much precaution with your jewelry as it is with your money and other valuables while you are traveling.
