What a necklace boxe has to do
A necklace box is a large flat format with the chain laid in a channel or a shallow well and the clasp held by a keeper so nothing travels.
Why Bordeaux Velvet
A black interior makes a stone read brighter than ivory does — there is nothing around it to reflect. Bordeaux outside gives the formality without going to black.
Getting the interior right
The keeper position is set to the chain length. A box made for 45 cm will not hold an 80 cm rope the same way, and a box with no keeper at all will deliver a knot.
Where it belongs
Evening and formal presentation, and counters selling coloured stones.
The mistake to avoid
A heavy pendant on a fine chain concentrates weight at one point. Where that is the case the well is shaped so the pendant is supported rather than hanging from the chain inside the box.
Worth knowing before you commit
Dark on dark hides the piece if the display is poorly lit. This box needs a light on it.
Velvet
Velvet is a cut-pile fabric with a longer, softer nap than microfibre suede. It is the traditional jewellery lining and still the one most buyers associate with a gift.

Frequently asked questions
Can the Bordeaux Velvet series be made in a different colour?
Yes. The colour shown is the standard for the series; exterior, lining and stitching are all specified per order. Send a Pantone reference or a swatch and we match to it, then confirm on a sample.
What logo methods suit velvet?
Velvet does not hold a hot-stamp the way board or leatherette does. A metal plate, or a lid card, is the more reliable way to carry a logo on a velvet exterior.
What do you need to make a necklace boxe?
The chain length or the range of lengths, the clasp type, and whether a pendant ships on the chain.
Can I see it before ordering?
Yes. A physical pre-production sample is made to your specification and the bulk run is held to the sample you approve.
