FAQs

Victorian jewellery and vanity boxes from the 1870s typically feature robust construction in exotic woods like coromandel, walnut, or mahogany, often enhanced with brass stringing, escutcheons, and mother-of-pearl inlay to reflect the periods taste for ornate craftsmanship.

These pieces were constructed using solid hardwood frames or high-quality veneers over a secondary wood, assembled with dovetail joints for durability, and lined internally with hand-pleated silk velvet or watered silk.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-correct joinery, hand-cut screws, natural ageing on the timber and brass, and working brass lever locks stamped with period manufacturer marks, as opposed to modern mass-produced replicas.

An antique jewellery box can be styled as a functional decorative object placed on a dressing table, a console, or a mantelpiece, adding texture, history, and sophisticated storage to contemporary spaces.

Preserve the wood by keeping it out of direct sunlight and maintaining stable humidity levels to prevent veneer cracking, and clean the interior velvet gently with a soft dry brush to remove dust without damaging the pile.
