Pearls – Amber – Wood
These organic materials need to be kept from drying out.
Pearls and Amber need skin-contact as often as possible and Wood benefits from a few drops of oil (either olive oil or a body oil without perfume)
Silver
Always keep silver items in zip-lock bags as the lack of air protects the surface from tarnishing or oxidising. Avoid storing silver jewellery in bathrooms as the humidity speeds up the process of oxidation.
