Jewelry Display Boxes

A good jewelry display box adds to the beauty of jewelry and other valuable items kept in it. These boxes are available in a number of sizes and a vast range of colors and designs. They could be made of glass, wood, metal or more than one material.

Jewelry display boxes are useful for displaying jewelry at home, and in exhibitions and retail outlets. One should choose one according to the place where it would be kept. While using a jewelry display box, do not forget the security aspect. Several security devices are available that can be attached to jewelry display boxes to make them more secure. Some jewelry display boxes have built-in security systems.

If one has to travel frequently with such display boxes, they should be ultra-secure, lightweight and easy to handle. As far as aesthetics is concerned, the wooden display boxes exhibit real charm, elegance and class, though antique display boxes made of metal or glass also look quite elegant at times.

Many modern jewelry houses and sellers of other valuable collectibles have started using metallic and glass or acrylic display boxes. The choice of a display jewelry box also depends on the kind of item that has to be displayed. Certain items look good only when displayed in jewelry boxes, such as old watches. But some items may look better in boxes made of aluminum or any other metal, or glass.

Generally, jewelry display boxes are not demanded by common households. But shops selling jewelry and people who are fond of collecting gems and jewels find them a necessity to exhibit their treasure trove.

Jewelry Boxes

Jewelry boxes are the best companions for your most precious and beautiful jewelry pieces. Apart from jewelry, they can be used for keeping certain other small items which are valuable for you. So a jewelry box is like a treasure trove where one can store a small but valuable treasure.

Though jewelry boxes are manufactured in factories, some people prefer a handmade piece. The latter are more expensive than the former. Just like factory-made jewelry boxes, handmade jewelry boxes are also available in a wide variety of textures and finishes. They could be made of wood, silver, glass or any other metal. In fact, such boxes are now available in almost every color and material one can think of.

Some of the most common materials used for making a jewelry box are glass, metal and wood. Some jewelry boxes, when flipped open, play music. They are known as musical jewelry boxes. For the last couple of decades, jewelry boxes made of marble have gained popularity. However, the most preferred ones still are made of mahogany or rosewood.

Jewelry boxes are often made to order also. But that can really cost a fortune. Some jewelry boxes have an extremely high price tag, as they are also antiques. This also indicates that a good jewelry box has a lifespan of at least a few centuries.

Until a few decades back, jewelry boxes were considered a status symbol. The rich and the famous made it a point to have a number of expensive jewelry boxes to store valuable ornaments. These boxes themselves became collectors' items. But times have changed, and so have the use and importance of jewelry boxes. With costume jewelry being more popular, a jewelry box is a common household item. But it is still an important and indispensable item for many.

Small Jewelry Boxes

Jewelry boxes are made in several shapes and sizes. However, small jewelry boxes are in higher demand, as most jewelry is small and delicate. Small but exquisitely made jewelry boxes are perfect for such small pieces of jewelry. A ring or pair of earrings looks more beautiful when nestling in the soft velvety folds of a small jewelry box. Small heart- shaped jewelry boxes always find a lot of takers as they are perfect for gifts.

Small jewelry boxes make ideal and unusual gifts for men too. A jewelry box that is specially made to hold watches or cufflinks are perfect for men who have a taste for artistic jewelry items. Small jewelry boxes are good receptacles for small pieces of heirloom jewelry. A well made jewelry box ends up as a valued keepsake.

Jewelry boxes need not necessarily be used to keep jewelry or gift jewelry in. Artistically made pieces can be added to ubiquitous corners in your home giving the décor a lovely lift. Thoughtfully placed jewelry boxes can enhance the furnishings immediately. The jewelry box can be selected to match the furniture or to complement it. There are a variety of designs of small jewelry boxes meant for house décor to choose from.

Jewelry boxes made with mahogany, cherry or burl wood maple will go very well with almost any kind of décor. An oriental jewelry box will look at home with a vintage set up. To accentuate a Victorian look, replications of historical antique boxes can be used.

Small jewelry boxes are also used by jewelry shops for packaging jewelry for customers. Jewelry shops usually carry a stock of customized small jewelry boxes to be used whenever needed. Small jewelry boxes also make interesting gifts for little girls. They are a nice way for little girls to store trinkets. Small to medium sized musical jewelry boxes made of inexpensive material are popular gifts bought for little girls.
