6 Gems vol 43: Reader Request - Before + After jewelry tour

How to store your jewelry

Thanks for the question, Maura!

I love tackling these; 6 Gems is FOR YOU, paid subs! A midweek treat, and one of the ways I can give real value and show my gratitude. Ask away if you have questions, always.

In this instance, I know a lot from my IRL experience figuring out what works and doesn’t. But I wanted to ask an expert because, honestly, I thought there were things I could be doing better.

And I was like — wait a minute, I literally just had dinner with At Present, an upscale but unintimidating curated marketplace of jewelry brands. They’re not sponsoring this or anything. Just wanted a take from someone who knows what’s what in jewelry world. I emailed Brit Booth, their chief brand officer, and you’ll see some of her expertise reflected here. She also made me desperately want this jewelry box. The compartments! The velvet! And I want to lay out jewelry for a trip on that tray! AND, she gave me this idea for a gift, especially to anyone newly engaged/anniversaried to give rings a place of honor. It’s made from recycled discarded glass! But I digress.

— bonus, At Present just gave me a discount code, too: HEYMRSSOLOMON15 — have at it!

On to the Gems. And we’ll start with the live video I recorded of my jewelry storage “before.”
