Jewelry Armoires

Jewelry armoires come with a multitude of divided compartments and drawers, to protect or showcase each separate jewelry item, as well as fold out tops and sides, with an attached mirror. Some have locks so that you can further protect your valuables. The armoire is a versatile piece of furniture that often has secret or hidden drawers and catches; and can store anything from brooches, rings, necklaces and bracelets, to family heirlooms and pocket watches. They are an elegant way to take care of your jewelry and ensure its preservation, so that you can enjoy it for years to come.

Some types of Armoires include:

Revolving jewelry armoires- The jewelry armoire case sits on four legs and can swivel similar to a revolving tie rack. Allows you to prepare without getting up to look for something in a hard-to-reach drawer. Prices start at $200 and up.

Palais jewelry armoires- The king of maximizing space. Includes pullout drawers, lift up top and sides as well as necklace hooks on doors.

Vanity jewelry armoires- More sprawling and spacious than the two above, this vanity includes a bench, desk-like space, and a large mirror.

Armoire chest- Less feminine and more practical looking than the revolving, palais, and vanity jewelry armoires. Takes up less space in bedroom.

Hand painted- These are specially hand-painted in a variety of patterns and colors, but the most popular are the floral motifs.

The Heirloom- Usually made from mahogany or cherry wood, they can be elegantly embossed or hand-painted, and come with velvet-lined drawers and carving or detailing on the base, as well as victorian-style handles.
