That's lovely and looks very functional/practical too. I particularly like the wings which open to hang your necklaces.
What brand is it? Also, what do the middle drawers look like inside -- do they have compartments?
Thanks for sharing!
A few places!
I like this Wolf safety deposit box - I have the cream and gold studded one. It's nice and slim and holds a surprising amount. It lives at the bank.

I also have a MASSIVE white leather jewelry box. I found it at TJ Maxx but it had a big scratch across the front, so I found the link online and since I had a birthday coming up, my mom was sweet enough to purchase it for me. It doesn't have any brand names on it though, and that was years ago, so I haven't been able to find it again. But it works perfectly! I also used ring display foam inserts from Amazon to keep everything looking nice. It's pretty similar to @Star gazer 's except there's no wings out the side for necklaces (great feature!).
Lastly, I'm pretty sure I single handedly keep this Etsy shop in business but I have at least four, if not five of the MadeInRose velvet zip cases in every size. I have one in my purse, one on my work desk, several different sizes for travel, and anything going IN our OUT of the safety deposit box is safely tucked away in one of them.
I never, ever, EVER put my jewelry in something that doesn't zip. I used to use a Pottery Barn MacKenna jewelry roll to take things to and from the bank. I put my beautiful diamonds by the yard bracelet from Whiteflash in it (along with a few other things), and then tucked the roll into my purse. Well... six months later I'm cleaning out my purse and what do I find at the bottom? MY BRACELET! Thank GOD I didn't just turn my purse upside-down into the trash like I do sometimes. (This is actually the second time I've lost that bracelet!)
I also used to use one of the Stackers mini boxes. I had a pearl of beautiful pearl studs in there, and since it was just a snap, when I opened it in my hotel room one of the studs goes FLYING out.Never to be found again (maybe down a vent?).
So, zips for me from now on.
I recently got the Stackers jewelry trays from the Container store. They come in two sizes and I got the larger. They are great and reasonably priced. I‘m not sure I chose the proper compartments for some of them, though, and I probably could have gotten away with the regular size.
I did see Wolf jewelry boxes at my local jewelry store the other day and they were spectacular.
I have a Stackers jewellery box in dove grey with a Tiffany blue lining. I was first alerted to it on PS & then swiftly pointed Mr. T in the right direction for my birthday a couple of years ago. It’s vast & ever so practical. When we move into the “new” house in May (renovated 1904 Vicarage) I will keep most of my things in the old & very sturdy safe there.

I just recently bought the Stackers. I figured out which pieces were best for what I needed. I bought 4 pieces at the Container Store but had to order 2 more online. I have 2 "stacks" One for the good stuff - that is 3 drawers and another 3 drawers for nice costume pieces. During the process of transferring everything to it's new home I discovered I have lost/misplaced 2 pieces that were very special to me. I had my original ER diamond, a .96 pear, made into a necklace with diamond stations on the chain. Another was a Dior "OUI" ring. Makes me sick, I loved those 2 pieces. Of course the ER diamond necklace is a true loss.
I'm so sorry to hear that!! It's gut wrenching when that happens. I really hope that both pieces will make their way back to you. Especially the pear necklace! I'm sure they will <3 <3
I currently use two jewelry boxes (a smaller brown one and a bigger Wolf one). I love the Wolf box, but wish I had purchased the large instead of the medium. @Star gazer I love how yours has the necklace holders - the larger version had those too. While I love the Wolf case, I don't like how it picks up lint and animal hair haha
I agree with everyone saying zipped/fully enclosed jewelry holders are the way to go. I had one of those roll-up travel cases and lost a pair of diamond earrings that way![]()
I am very very interested in the Stackers and will look into it. I like how you can mix and match compartments to suit your needs, and it seems like a cleaner look overall vs my mismatched boxes (I also keep some pieces in their original cases, so add that to the chaos haha)

I have the same wolf box but the green version. I totally feel the same way as you about size. It was perfect at first but now I regret not purchasing the large. Anyways I noticed your comment about the lint and I wanted to say that I obviously have the same problem so I use a hand vac with a little brush attachment on mine and it cleans up perfectly!

Aren't you worried that such a box will make it very easy for burglars? By one grip he has your entire collection in his hands! I have all my bling in a safe and my watches in a safe watch winder. It's not as nice to look at but I feel safer.
