I think that could become a problem if the glass of water should get overturned and as in my case, I have lots of documents nearby. Besides that I think it is enough when you once in a while take your pearls out and wear them. Donīt forget to wipe them clean afterwards, some people do have a PH-grade that is not so good for pearls and acids also can damage the pearls. However the nice thing with a safe is, that a thief couldnīt take it, our safe is huge and weighs about 500 pounds!
