Why do jewelry stores sometimes keep a shot glass of water in the jewelry cases under the lights?

The brilliant lighting and warm showcases seen in most jewellery stores are not always good for the gemstones. Items like pearls or opals can dry out in the wrong humidity levels. A glass of water left nearby in the display can help balance out the dryness caused by the hot lights.
