The quality of the materials, thoughtful design, and attention to detail turn a jewel into a special piece that stands the test of time.
One of the keys to preserving its elegance lies in how it’s stored. Doing it properly is the hallmark of those who seek a timeless accessory to accompany them in the special moments of their story.
It’s not always easy to know the keys to perfectly storing earrings and necklaces. For this reason, at VIDAL & VIDAL we’re sharing our secrets so these jewels keep their beauty and shine unchanged over the years.
Tips for storing earrings
The delicate structure of earrings calls for special care. These small works of art that add elegance and style to our face should be handled and stored gently to maintain their shine and avoid damage. Some keys to achieving this are:
- Keep them in pairs: to avoid losing them, store each earring with its match. Jewelry boxes with individual compartments not only prevent losses but also protect from snags and scratches.
- Place small tissue balls on sharp ends: besides keeping the backs in place and preventing them from coming undone, this trick stops sharp ends from rubbing against other jewelry.
- Avoid humidity: it’s essential to store jewelry in cool, dry places, since metals oxidize and stones can be damaged by excessive moisture.

How to store small earrings
Because of their delicate details and compact size, it’s often challenging to keep small earrings organized. To give them the special attention they need, follow some of these tips:
- Compartments: whether in a jewelry box or a suitable earring case, trays with small sections promote order, prevent mixing, and make it easy to pick the pair you’ll wear.
- Jewelry pads: fasten earrings onto a soft surface so they stay in place. Besides keeping them protected, it simplifies your daily selection.
- Organza bags: delicate or intricately designed earrings need extra protection. Pouches made from this or other soft materials protect from tangles, friction, and scratches—and add an elegant touch to your vanity.

Tips for storing necklaces
Necklaces, which elevate any outfit and have unmatched charm, require special care and should be stored with the same dedication with which we treasure the memories of the moments they accompany us. When kept properly, their shine lasts for a long time. Some of the best options are:
- Wall hooks: necklaces stay tidy and visible—very useful for choosing the perfect pendant for each occasion.
- Velvet pouches: this fabric gently wraps the most delicate necklaces and prevents damage from rubbing against other jewelry or movement inside the box. The pouches our pieces arrive in with any order are an ideal option to keep your necklaces pristine.

How to store necklaces so they don’t tangle
Necklaces often tangle when not stored carefully. To prevent this, it’s essential to keep them separate by following these tricks:
- Tissue paper or soft fabrics: wrapping jewelry in delicate materials prevents tangling and keeps pieces protected.
- Individual pouches: storing necklaces one by one is the best way to avoid knots. It also promotes order and makes choosing easier.
- Scarves or tubes: wrap longer chains around soft cylindrical supports—like a rolled-up scarf—to keep them in place.
Properly storing necklaces and earrings is, ultimately, essential to preserve their beauty. Carefully designed jewelry boxes—perfect for surprising on Mother’s Day—make organization easier, and their delicate materials help care for metals and stones by preventing friction among different pieces.
