Mele Richmond Jewelry Box

Show off your favorite pieces of jewelry and keep them organized in the Richmond Jewelry Box. This wooden jewelry box has a classic, sophisticated look and a rich walnut finish accented by antiqued hardware.

A large mirror makes it easy to try on different pieces; it is tucked underneath the scalloped lid. Two swing-out doors have clear glass windows that reveal necklaces tidily hung from the inset hooks. A generously sized line of ring rolls is displayed behind another sparkling glass display window. Three undivided drawers offer plenty of space for the rest of your jewels. The interior is hand-lined in ivory colored suede. It measures 12 3/8W x 5 5/8D x 15 3/4H inches and is a wonderful gift idea.

About Mele
Emidio Mele, an Italian immigrant to the United States, came to New York City in 1896 and learned to make jewelry boxes as an apprentice before founding Mele Manufacturing in 1912. He began by designing and building elegant displays for jewelry store windows. His jewelry box making business grew throughout the 1900s, responding to demands for boxes to hold Purple Hearts during WWII and developing as a popular household name for quality jewelry boxes. Today Mele Jewelry Box is known as the Mele Companies, which encompass various divisions under the Mele name. Now based in Utica, N.Y., Mele still upholds the family atmosphere on which it was founded and remains America's foremost name in jewelry cases.
