Jewelry Travel Boxes
From LoveToKnow Jewelry
If you travel with your jewelry then a travel jewelry box is essential to ensure that your jewelry arrives safe and sound.
When you go on your travels you want to ensure that your jewelry arrives with you in tip top condition so when you are ready to wear it, it looks perfect and you look glamorous. It is all too easy for an earring to become separated from the other one of the pair or for a chain to get tangled up with other items and broken. A good traveling jewelry box will stop this from happening and ensure that your jewelry is well stored.
What are Travel Jewelry Boxes?
There are many different types of travel-friendly jewelry boxes with various features, however the function of each is the same and they all provide specialist jewelry storage. It is important that earrings, rings, pendants, brooches and other types of jewelry are well stored. Therefore jewelry boxes have special areas for earrings and ways of storing rings so they do not roll around and risk becoming damaged.
Some of the important features of jewelry travel boxes are:
- Easy to Pack: Some travel jewelry boxes or jewelry organizers are packed in hand luggage and as such it is important that they are compact and easily stored. These are also likely to be light weight so they do not add too much weight to hand luggage. These jewelry boxes and cases are typically soft organizers that have different sections for each jewelry type and yet still fit neatly into a case.
- Secure: Jewelry boxes for carrying highly valuable items of jewelry need to be securely locked. Lockable jewelry boxes are useful for carrying many different types of jewelry and are particularly useful when traveling with irreplaceable items such as family heirlooms.
- Hard Cases: Fragile items of jewelry require special storage when traveling. A soft case will not protect the jewelry against knocks and bumps, so therefore a hard traveling case might be a better option. These cases take up more room in luggage, however modern materials mean that they need not be too heavy.
- Attractive and Practical: Just because a jewelry box is for travel it does not mean that it should not be attractive and many jewelry cases are both practical and attractive. Hard wearing materials such as leather also give a jewelry box a timeless appeal. Other options include hard cases made from resin, and these are available in a wide range of funky colors.
How to Buy a Jewelry Travel Case
Before buying a jewelry travel case it is important to check that your insurance does not have any specific clauses relating to traveling with your jewelry. Assuming that there are no special clauses to consider then you can start shopping for the best jewelry box. Before buying a box it is worth considering:
- How big does it need to be?
- Does it matter if the case is hard or soft?
- Are there any special items of jewelry that need to be considered?
- Is the box to be carried separately or in a case or luggage?
- Does the jewelry need to be securely locked?
