Jewelry gift boxes are decorative boxes that people use to put jewelry in, when giving as a gift for a special occasion, such as Christmas, anniversaries, birthdays, graduations, etc. You will find that there are many different styles and designs of gift boxes for jewelry, available on the market, for sale. You can find gift boxes to place jewelry in, for specific types of jewelry, as well. There are finger and toe ring boxes, bracelet and anklet boxes, earrings boxes, as well as necklace boxes. Some boxes are velvet lined, some are silk lined and some are merely cushioned. Some boxes have ribbons on the outside, to decorate the gift and some have very simple elastic bands that are various colors, such as silver, gold, red and blue.
You can pick up jewelry gift boxes at just about any jewelry store, department store and even some discount stores. To name of a few of the stores that you can visit to purchase gift boxes for jewelry, you can try Kay Jewelers, Walmart or K-mart, Family Dollar and you can even try at gift specialty shops to find gift boxes to put jewelry in. If you would prefer the convenience of using the internet, as opposed to traveling around town, to your local area stores, some web sites that I have found are www.jewelrysupply.com, www.nashvillewraps.com, www.bayleysboxes.com and www.zooly.org.
As already mentioned, there are jewelry gift boxes specifically designed for different types of jewelry. For example, a box designed for a finger or toe ring will generally be quite small, square in shape and have a small cut or “slit” in the center of the inner, cushioned lining, to hold the ring in place. A necklace box, you will find, will generally be a flat, rectangular shaped box, with small “lips” or ties, one at each end of the inner, flat lining to sort of “hang” the necklace in place. You will find that an earring box is very similar to a finger or toe ring box, the only really “difference” being that unlike the ring box, having the small slit, you will find that an earring box will have two or four small holes, in order to secure the earrings side by side, into place, on a lining “card”. For “fishhook” style earrings, the earrings will sit securely and for studded earrings, the backing will be placed on the stud on the back of the card the earrings are hung on. A bracelet or anklet box will be the same as a necklace box, only smaller.
Make sure you know what type of jewelry gift boxes you need, before making your purchase. If you are going to be giving a ring, then you will obviously need a ring box. For a necklace, a necklace box, etc. One of the main reasons that you want to make sure that you have the correct box, according to the piece of jewelry you plan to place in the box is to protect the item. If a necklace (for example) is “crammed” into a box intended to place earrings, the chain of the necklace can be tangled up and the links of the delicate chain can break. In addition, placing the jewelry item in the appropriate box will LOOK a lot neater, as well. Shop around to find the gift box you want to purchase, for the jewelry item you are giving as a gift for the special person receiving it.
Jewelry gift boxes can cost anywhere from $10 to $80, depending on style and design.
