What a set boxe has to do
A set box holds a full suite in one opening — necklace, earrings, ring and often a bracelet — each in its own seat so nothing touches anything else.
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
A suite tray is drawn to the specific set, not chosen from a list. The layout decides which piece leads the eye and how the set reads when the lid opens.
Where it belongs
Evening and formal presentation, and counters selling coloured stones.
The mistake to avoid
Pieces of very different depths do not sit well in the same plane. Where a ring and a cuff are in the same suite, either the seats are cut to different depths or the interior is tiered.
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 set boxe?
A photograph of the pieces laid out the way you want them presented. The measurements follow from the layout.
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.
