Burgundy in leatherette, specifically
A repeatable burgundy that will match on a reorder, which the textiles will not. For a chain rolling one colour out across many shops, that consistency is worth more than the depth velvet gives.
What burgundy does for the piece
The traditional jeweller's ground. It is warm, so yellow gold sits beautifully on it, and it reads as established before anything is opened — which is both the reason to choose it and the reason it looks like every other jeweller.
What burgundy shows
Little, because it is mid-dark and warm. It is one of the more forgiving colours for a counter box.
Which metals and stones burgundy suits
Yellow gold above all. Platinum and white gold can look slightly cold against it.
Why leatherette (pu)
Leatherette is a polyurethane skin over a woven backing. It gives the grain and the weight of leather at a consistent colour, batch to batch — which matters when a jeweller is reordering a house box for years.
Putting your logo on leatherette (pu)
Leatherette is the most forgiving surface for a logo. Hot-stamp, blind deboss and metal plate all sit well on it, and a fine typeface holds its detail.
Cutting the interior in leatherette (pu)
The skin is wrapped over a rigid shell, so corners stay square and the lid closes on a defined line rather than a soft one.
Wipe with a barely damp cloth. Avoid solvent cleaners, which can lift the surface.
