Jewellery can transform an outfit. A statement earring can brighten up a classic black dress while heirloom pieces steal the show with ease. If you’ve spent years collecting an assortment of beautiful vintage and modern eye candy, chances are you need a place to store your treasures. Perhaps you heap them atop a dressing table or throw the day’s pieces onto a trinket dish resulting in endlessly tangled chains, scratched rings, and even missing diamonds. Well no longer. Jewellery boxes that are as beautiful as the sparkle inside will keep your gems safe and sound.
A far cry from the glittery, musical boxes of your childhood, modern jewellery boxes have evolved to reflect more polished tastes. Rendered in leather, suede and wood, there’s a jewellery box for every aesthetic, but picking the right one depends on your needs. Are you the kind of person who only wears a favourite ring day-to-day? In that case, a compact ring box should suffice. However, if you have multiple accessories in your daily rotation, you’ll likely want a box with separate compartments. Here’s our edit of the most beautiful jewellery boxes to invest in now.
