Firstly if you own an impressive collection of jewelry or like most of us intend on owning an impressive collection you may wish to consider a Secure Jewelry box. 

CHECK THE LINING

The jewelry box should be lined with a soft, lint free cloth. This is absolutely critical for those with pearls and other softer gemstones. The cloth will also allow the jewelry to breath and prevent tarnishing. Lower quality jewelry boxes will have synthetic linings which are harsh and abrasive. Ask the store to throw in as many jewelry bags as possible, these are always useful for storing your most precious items in. Place a couple in the car and take a few with you on holiday.

SECURING YOUR JEWELRY BOX

If you are storing your jewelry in a locked room you may not require a locking mechanism on your jewelry box. If children have access to the box you may wish to purchase a jewelry box with childproof locks and opening mechanisms.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Those fond of feng shui, matching existing furniture and coordinating styles should of course consider their options. Many believe giving an empty jewelry box as a gift will bring bad luck to the receiver so you’re buying a jewelry box for someone extend your generosity with at least a small piece of sterling silver jewelry.
