1. Jewellery box, jewellery stand or jewellery tray?
Jewellery is safest and best protected from dust and dirt in jewellery boxes and caskets. The key detail of these storage options: they have a lid and can be closed. There are also decorative jewellery stands and trays, as well as trays and tiered stands, which let you display individual pieces. This kind of jewellery storage is popular for necklaces and bracelets, which tend to get tangled in a jewellery box. Depending on the model, you can also keep your jewellery in different places. Stands and trays are often placed on the bedside table or on a shelf in the bedroom, so your jewellery is within easy reach when you get up and can be put back in its usual place before bed. In the bathroom, on the other hand, boxes with lids are more common, to protect jewellery from moisture. Wall-mounted jewellery storage is also popular.
Our tip: Elegant storage boxes can also be repurposed for storing jewellery. At Connox, you'll find well-designed boxes that also make ideal gifts for your girlfriend or for women in general.
2. The design of your jewellery storage: wood, metal or plastic
Discover attractive designs that complement your interior. Elegant, simple or original – we have the right jewellery box to suit your character and style. A wooden jewellery box, for example, has a natural look, while a silver jewellery box in stainless steel or aluminium conveys luxury and elegance. A good example is the jewellery tree by the Danish company Menu, which stands out for its shiny look as well as its soft, minimalist shapes. If you like things practical, choose a jewellery box in easy-to-wipe plastic or acrylic. Either way, the interplay of shape and material is key to a cohesive overall look.
3. Special features for your individual needs
Our jewellery storage products come with practical features that make it easier to organise necklaces, bracelets, earrings and other accessories. The Jewellery Box by Nomess is suitable for rings, stud earrings, necklaces, watches and other small accessories. The transparent acrylic box also has individual dividers, in colour or clear, that keep everything neatly sorted. The Jewellery Box by Menu, on the other hand, is made of wood and also has a mirror. Its small compartments let you organise jewellery, make-up and other small accessories in this lidded storage box. The Little Black Dress jewellery organiser by Umbra, made of polyester and plastic, offers a very special way to store your jewellery. Designed by Matt Carr, it's inspired by the "little black dress" and can be hung on the wall or in the wardrobe thanks to its hanger. 24 loops for hooks and 39 clear pockets keep everything in order.
4. Large or small storage space as needed
The size of your jewellery storage should match the amount of jewellery you own. If you have lots of pieces, you can choose one large or several small storage boxes. The advantage of smaller boxes is particularly clear when travelling, as you can take selected pieces with you without taking up much space. The Vitriini boxes by Iittala come in various colours, so you can choose a different box for each type of jewellery. A wooden jewellery box with straight compartments keeps your jewellery neatly organised and is a must for anyone who likes things in order. Square or round is a question of taste. Store large pieces that are easy to grip, such as bracelets, in a tall, narrow jewellery box. A wide, flat jewellery box is ideal for delicate necklaces.
5. Helpful storage tips
How you store your jewellery depends entirely on the pieces themselves. We've put together the most important points for you here.
Necklaces: Avoid annoying tangles by storing necklaces either laid out flat in a jewellery box that's large enough or hanging on a jewellery tree.
Rings: Display rings decoratively on a ring holder made of materials that are gentle on metal. Alternatively, rings can be stored in jewellery boxes with several compartments, where special padding gives them extra protection.
Stud and drop earrings: Ideally, always keep earrings in pairs. For studs, a box with lots of small separate compartments works best. Drop earrings, on the other hand, are best kept on a jewellery stand with suitable hanging points.
You should also sort your jewellery by material. Gold jewellery belongs in a sufficiently large, lockable box without cotton wool, to prevent a dark patina from forming as far as possible. Silver jewellery should be packed in bags that are as airtight as possible, with a small piece of aluminium foil inside. This stops the typical yellowish-brown tarnish from spreading. Jewellery with gemstones should be stored in the dark and without contact with other pieces, so discolouration and scratches hardly stand a chance.
6. How much does practical jewellery storage cost?
At Connox, you'll find the right jewellery storage for every budget. If you mainly wear costume jewellery, our affordable basics with lots of compartments give you a good overview. If you own fewer but very high-quality pieces made of delicate precious metals, choose a jewellery box made of the finest materials.
