Catalog Critic: Jewelry Boxes
The Wall Street Journal Weekend : Episode FLWSJ-202

Leather Jewelry Box with Four Drawers
Best overall.
A portable, functional box made of high-quality leather. Wonderful craftsmanship, it resembles an old-fashioned train case and has a box-within-a-box function, which works for almost all types of jewelry.

Chelsea Jewelry Chest
Best value. Nice beveled glass top, smooth veneer and faux-suede interior, but will not take a large ring.

Italian Embossed Jewelry Box
Visually stunning, but small — it holds one ring, one pair of earrings and one bracelet or necklace. It does have a key lock.

Jewel Case with Three Open Drawers
All the necessary features, including divided storage areas, a ring roll and necklace hooks. Unfortunately, the box had an uneven stain, something that the company says can be a problem with darker woods.

Reed & Barton Cherry Finish Regal Ladies
The largest of the models, this box came equipped with a plus-size ring roll, pendant hooks, two drawers and a plaque that could be engraved. Very nice for the lady who has a lot of jewelry and wants to keep it on top of her dresser.
