What a pair of earrings box has to do
Studs sit in punched holes with the posts passing through; drops hang from a slit or bar. One interior rarely serves both well.
The moment it is opened
Earrings are bought in pairs and must read as a pair — level with each other, at the same height.
The mistake we correct most often
One interior for both studs and drops. Studs sit in punched holes with the posts through; drops hang from a slit or bar. An interior that half-suits both suits neither.
Velvet on a pair of earrings box, specifically
Punched holes in velvet close around the post and hold a stud upright without a butterfly fitted. For drops, the pile stops the piece swinging against the board while the box is carried.
What varies between versions
Holes, a slit, or a bar. Holes for studs, a slit for light drops, a bar where the piece is heavy enough to need it.
Why velvet for this
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.
Putting your logo on 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.
Cutting the interior in velvet
A velvet slot closes on the shank under its own spring. The pile hides the cut edge, so the slot can be made slightly generous without looking loose.
Brush with the pile. Avoid pressing a heavy piece into the same spot for months at a time, or the pile takes a set.
