The History of Jewellery Boxes

It is believed that the use of jewellery boxes dates back to 5000 BC, when they became very popular in Ancient Egypt. During this time jewellery held high importance for its spiritual value. People of all social statuses believed jewellery would benefit them in the afterlife, and developed advanced methods to handcraft their wooden chests and boxes. They became a necessity for all Egyptians, and valuables would be buried in the caskets with the Pharaohs whilst the lower classes would use decorated reed wooden boxes to house their jewels.

During the Middle Ages jewellery boxes became very decorative, often created from gold or silver and decorated in precious gemstones. They were used by royalty and noblemen to store their jewellery and valuable possessions. 

Throughout all of the periods of history following jewellery boxes have had their place in society and followed the fashions of the time, with trinket boxes in different materials becoming popular during the 18th century, as well as musical boxes, and jewellery boxes  crafted in the Art Nouveau style during the 20th century.
