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.
There are many different types of boxes out there that fit many different types of things that are still categorized under the jewelry box name. Some of these things include 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.
In general if the box is going to be for a little girl then the box material will probably be some kind of cardboard or corrugated board or pressed board. This is usually the case because little girls tend to be a little bit harsher on their things than grown women are.
If the jewelry box is going to be for a grown woman then more than likely the box is going to be of higher quality. This meaning the construction materials will more than likely be that of an exotic wood such as yellow heart pine and the interior be made of silk or velvet.
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. - 33380
