Most fine jewelry and small pieces will go through airport security without a problem. If you have metal in your carry-on, make sure to put it in your carry-on before you leave the airport.

Are earrings allowed in hand luggage?
The only rules that apply are the size and weight of your carry-on bag.
How do you pack dangle earrings?
Simply pierce each earring through and secure it, either with the earring back or with a small piece of tape. You should tape down chandelier earrings and other dangling pieces if they become tangled. Wrap the foam sheet in multiple sheets of plastic wrap to keep it from moving around.
Once the box is set up, place it on a flat surface, such as a table or counter, so that it can be easily lifted up and out of the way when you’re ready to move on to the next step.
How many necklaces should you layer?
To get the most out of the necklace look, we recommend combining at least three pieces of different lengths. If you want to wear the necklace with just one piece of jewelry, you don’t need to limit yourself.
How to Choose the Right Length for Your Necklace Necklaces come in all shapes and sizes, so it’s important to choose the right length for your neck. If you have a long neck, it may be difficult to find a necklace that will fit you comfortably.
You may also want to consider the length of the neckline, which can vary depending on the type of necktie you are wearing and the style of necklace you’re wearing. The length should be long enough to cover your entire head, but not so long that you can’t see your hair through it.
A good rule of thumb to remember is that the longer your necklace is, the more likely it is to fall off when you take it off.
Will sterling silver set off security airport?
Most jewelry is made out of materials that don’t cause metal detectors to go off. Gold, platinum, and sterling silver will very rarely set off an alarm and if they do, it’s probably because they’re mixed with another metallic material. Fine jewelry will probably pass through without a problem.
How do you travel with precious metals?

Do you have to take earrings out for TSA?
If you set off an alarm at the security checkpoint, the officer might do a physical pat-down. The pat-down is uncomfortable for many travelers and they would prefer not to be subjected to it. If you’re traveling with an earring, make sure you remove it before you leave the airport. If you don’t, you could be subject to additional screening.
Can you travel with gold jewelry?
If you are travelling with valuable items such as jewelry, please keep those items with you at all times (do not put them in checked baggage). If you want to make sure your valuables are safe, you can ask the TSA officer to screen you and your items in private.
You can also ask to be screened by a TSA agent at the airport. You will need to show a valid government-issued photo ID with your name and date of birth. If you do not have one, you will be asked to provide one at check-in.
