STORING COSTUME JEWELRY

Where and how you store your costume jewelry will depend to a great extend upon the amount of space, kind of space, and the ways in which you derive pleasure from your collection. Here are some facts, factors, and suggestions (all derived from many members of he Jewelcollect list), that may help you make a decision about storage/display and at the same time, help you avoid deterioration and damage.
Keep in mind that much of the current collectable costume jewelry was neither designed nor manufactured with the idea in mind of it becoming "vintage". It was, for the most part, meant as a temporary substitute for the real thing and probably has a place in the early beginnings of our so-called "disposable" mode of living. We are indeed fortunate that much of the early costume jewelry was designed and manufactured by people whose previous experience WAS in the fine jewelry industy, so that much of it was well-made, in similar ways to fine jewelry manufacture. We are also fortunate that there continues to be certain manufacturers and designers with a tradition of finely made costume jewelry.
Storage factors that will/may damage your precious costume jewelry:
1. Avoid storage in OAK as it apparently releases fumes which will damage costume jewelry (and other common storage items). Perhaps it therefore follows that some highly processed woods common in inexpensive furniture may also be releasing chemicals that would be harmful. A safe bet would be wood/paper containers/drawers used for storage of art. Metal and plastic would also seem to be fairly safe bets.
2. Avoid storage in CARDBOARD BOXES. This includes the cute little jewelry boxes that the jewelry arrives in. This paper has been treated with sulphur, which definitely contributes to faster tarnishing of gold/silver; so who knows what it is doing to costume jewelry finishes and glues. The exception to storing in cardboard is, of course, if the items have been sealed in plastic bags. It probably is not wise to wrap stored jewelry (in or out of the plastic bag) in tissue paper or kleenix as these are paper products and probably have been treated with undesirable chemicals.
3. Avoid storage in a DAMP ATMOSPHERE. It is widely believed that fluids and dampness definitely contribute to the deterioration of rhinestones and especially accelerate that deterioration of older rhinestone or rhinestones that are not made to top standards.If you want to know more about fluids and rhinestones, or about the cleaning & care of rhinestones, go to Sparkles website "Cleaning & Repair" section.
4. Avoid storage in a DUSTY ENVIRONMENT. Dust itself is abrasive, and when you clean that dust from the piece of jewelry, the surfaces are being slightly abraded.
5. Do not store ANYTHING with CELLULOID. Celluloid gives off fumes that will damage costume jewelry and also other plastics. It may be best if celluloid is stored unsealed so that the fumes are dissipated as they occurs.
6. If you hang necklaces (or other "strung" things) for your convenience in selecting and wearing, you may want to be sure that the "hook" is more like a fat peg than a thin metal rod in order to spread the stress on the bead cord. Rotating the item on the peg may be helpful, too.
Suitable containers for storage:
Metal map/artist drawers. Plastic boxes, Cloth of the softest kind, plastic bags, display units of mostly glass/plastic.
Some interesting ideas for display or accessibility:
Lining up bracelets on a bar - similar to a towel bar - one end must be detachable.
Displaying in picture frame boxes.
Pins and brooches pinned to pillows, drapes, etc.

Information on Vintage Rhinestone Jewelry

Vintage rhinestone jewelry is a hot commodity among collectors of costume jewelry. The versatility and affordability of rhinestones has made them a popular material for costume jewelry for centuries; for the collector, that makes vintage rhinestone jewelry easy to find and purchase. Those who are new to collecting vintage rhinestone jewelry will be pleased to find pieces in every price range and fashion. Knowing what to look for and how to care for vintage rhinestone jewelry guarantees even beginners a great start.

History

• Rhinestones have been centerpieces of costume jewelry since diamond imitations were created in the 18th century by backing glass with powdered metal. In the 1890s Austrian Daniel Swarovski patented his process of permanently applying foil backing to high-led content crystals and began producing high-quality rhinestones of all colors. In an interview with Collector's Weekly online, costume jewelry collector and appraiser Rosalie Sayyah, said that rhinestones became popular in the 1920s when designer Coco Chanel first showed them with her clothing, and remained in vogue through the '50s as more women moved into the workforce and could afford to treat themselves to jewelry

Features

• Rhinestones can be created in an array of sizes and shapes. Vintage jewelry, featuring clear or diamond-simulant rhinestones is abundantly available; pieces with colored rhinestones are a bit more rare. Most vintage rhinestone jewelry was made with base metals for settings, such as brass or copper, that was then plated silver or gold, although some rhinestone costume jewelry was set in sterling silver.
• 

• Collecting

  • Those interested in collecting vintage rhinestone jewelry should begin their search by checking their local public library for books about collecting vintage costume jewelry, then start shopping for these pieces at local flea markets and thrift stores, where rhinestone jewelry is readily available and often very affordable.
• Serious collectors will find plenty of vintage rhinestone jewelry pieces on Internet auction sites such as eBay and online retailers which specialize in vintage rhinestone jewelry.
  

  Considerations

  • Whether you are buying vintage rhinestone jewelry to collect or to wear, keep in mind that a piece of vintage jewelry is only a good deal if it is in good condition. Rhinestones should be clear, not cloudy. If the piece has an open back that exposes the undersides of the rhinestones, check the condition of the foil backing. Foil backing that is seriously scratched or damaged can be repaired, but repairs can be expensive.
    Some tarnishing or verdigris is to be expected on vintage jewelry made of base metals; however, rust, corrosion, or heavily tarnished or verdigrised (greened) pieces may be impossible to clean.

  Care and Storage

  • Vintage rhinestone jewelry should be worn, cleaned and stored with care. The most important thing to remember with rhinestone jewelry is that moisture has the potential to cloud stones or destroy the foil backing, while also corroding base metal settings. Care should be taken not to expose rhinestone jewelry to liquids, and to dry it promptly if it becomes wet.
    Illusion Jewels recommends cleaning rhinestone jewelry using a jewelry polishing cloth; heavily soiled items can be cleaned with a soft toothbrush barely dampened with glass cleaner, such as Windex, taking care not to scrub or scratch exposed rhinestone backs in order to avoid damage to the foil backing.
    Store rhinestone jewelry pieces individually in cloth bags to prevent scratching. Never attempt to re-glue a loose rhinestone with super glue or any other regular glue. If a stone needs to be replaced, take the item to a jeweler.
