There are many different types of jewelry boxes out there. Today we are going to discuss a few basic styles and materials that are used in making of the boxes.
The first thing that we will be going over today is the basic style of the jewelry box. The basic style that everyone is familiar with is the square design.
There are a bunch of different designs and shapes that jewelry boxes come in. just because it is called a jewelry box does not necessarily mean that it can only hold jewelry in it.
A very common mistake that people make is to think that all boxes are created equal. In fact there are many different boxes that fall under the jewelry box name. The necklace organizers, earring organizers, ring organizers, watch cases, and pocket watch cases just to name a few.
The next part in our discovery of jewelry boxes is the materials used to make one. Depending on whom the box is for makes a huge difference in the material choice used to build the box.
Most times if the box is going to be for a little girl then the box material is going to be that of cardboard, corrugated board or pressed board. The reason for this is that, for the most part little girls tend to be harder on their items than a grown woman will be.
On the other hand if the jewelry box is going to be for a grown woman or older girl then the box may be of higher quality material. These materials usually consist of an exotic wood such as ebony. Also the interior of the box may be covered in velvet or silk.
If the box is going to be for a man then there is a good chance that the box will consist of a place to put their pocket watch, wrist watch and cuff links. Also the jewelry box may be made of leather or metal instead of just wood.
