Do you often lose the pearls you wore to last night’s dinner at the opera with friends? Can you never find your favorite piece of jewelry when you need it most for a very important date? Worry no more. Choose A Jewelry Armoire is the most elegant and efficient way to keep your jewels. The jewelry armoire in Queen Elizabeth’s palace beneath Buckingham Palace may not be as huge as the one under her bed.
The armoire
The French word armoire originally meant an armoire or gun cabinet, but not anymore. A modern armoire is typically a tall cabinet that has drawers and shelves. The armoire nowadays can be a wardrobe armoire, jewelry armoire, entertainment armoire, or a computer armoire just recently.
Choosing a jewelry armoire
First, you need to identify your woods or non-woods, including your pretend woods. Decide which suits you best. If your jewelry armoire gets worn, do you like it to gain more character and charm? A real solid wood jewelry armoire is for you. Real wood jewelry armoires are usually made from oak, maple, or pine, so you can choose between the classic yellow brown oaks, the regal cherry red maples, or the mission brown practical pines. Do you mind the look of an engineered MDF jewelry armoire paired with laminates or wood veneers.
Which jewelry armoire will you use?
Will it primarily serve as a jewelry storage area? You may want a tall chest of six to eight drawers with open sides so that you can hang your pearls and necklaces. Will it be a place for you to try on your red ruby necklace after you put on your makeup? You might consider a shorter vanity armoire with mirror, vanity, and a soft-cushioned bench.
As a final question, what is your price range?
Do you have a budget of $300 or less? You can then buy popular brands in oak with mirrors, eight drawers, and side swing doors to hang pearls and golden necklaces. Do you have an extra $400 lying around? You can then purchase an elegant dark cherry red maple Queen Anne jewelry armoire with detail rice carved posts on its door. What if you have just $59.95? Then you’ll enjoy the thrill of the hunt for good and used jewelry armoires. The cherry Queen Anne jewelry armoire chest box has been auctioned for $59.95 on eBay the last time I checked. You’d better hurry.
Factors to consider before making a purchase
A wall-mounted jewelry armoire provides you with lots of storage space without taking up valuable floor space. The hanging cabinets come in a wide range of styles and sizes, from those with full length mirrors to hide the jewels to smaller, decorative cabinets that look just as good in a hallway or dining room as in a bedroom.
