Maxi Jewelry & Tangled Chains


A loyal customer of ours has recently bought an over-sized necklace that had been on her wish list for a while. Here at YourBijoux, we like to call the over-sized pieces as "Maxi" jewelry. A shorter word for a style that is really grand.

She was very happy with her piece, and expressed a great deal of satisfaction when she saw the way her maxi necklace was presented to her - in its own individual padded box. I was equally happy to see that she had more than one reason to smile!


Whether you own many or a few pieces, make sure your jewelry is protected. Treat them just as you would a piece of solid gold jewelry or your grandma's pearls.
For a maxi necklace, it is important to keep it in its own box or compartment, to avoid tangles and scratches.

If you own many pieces and don't like having to search for them, go for glass top jewelry boxes. They save time and look so pretty! See a personalized one here.
If you prefer a more traditional style, just make sure there are plenty of compartments to house earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings. Our suggestion in purple is so... royal!


Now, if you are like me and already have a tangled, neglected necklace in your jewelry box, here is what you can do:

You will need corn starch and a sewing needle.
If you do not have corn starch, baby powder will also work.

Rub a little on the knot (s) and with the needle, pull it easily apart.
The powder also shakes off easily, and if there is any powder left, you can always rinse it off with cold water. Dry the excess water with a soft cloth, and let it air dry.


See you soon!
