Since fine jewellery has financial and emotional value, many travelers would rather leave it at home. But so long as you remember the following guidelines, you can safely travel with jewellery that is precious to you.
2. Contact your insurance carrier: Notify your insurance company of your travel dates. Travelers often let their credit card companies know when they are traveling, and you should do the same when bringing jewellery
6. Pin your pieces: If the piece has a pin (like an earring or brooch), put the pin through the plastic bag so it won’t move. This prevents pieces from rubbing against each other, which can scratch and damage soft gemstones.
8. Bring a polishing cloth or an eye glass cleaning cloth: A soft cloth like ones used to clean eye glasses or a microfiber cloth are ideal for cleaning your jewellery before you wear it.
9. String chains through straws: Stringing your chains through straws prevents them from getting tangled. This simple trick can save you a headache at the hotel.
10. Don’t take too much: Sometimes less is more. You can still make a splash by bringing a select few pieces, while leaving the rest at home
