Miniature Jewellery Box

A lidded jewellery box for a dollhouse dressing table, built to the 1:12 dollhouse scale used across the Display & Storage range. Small lidded boxes are the pieces that make a dressing table look used rather than staged: a mirror and a stool make the furniture, but a box left on the top gives the room a hint of someone's belongings. The piece reads as a dressing case as much as a jewellery box, so it suits a bedroom, a dressing room, or the corner of a hallway where things are put down on the way through.

You pay $24.99 for the box, and the compare-at price is $31.99. A price badge offers 2 for $41.99. One piece is listed rather than a range of options, so there is nothing to pick between at checkout. Six photographs come with this piece and all six are labelled as main product photos, which means the images are not divided between different options.

In a scene a small box does two jobs. It gives a flat surface something to hold, and it gives a bedroom a reason to look lived in without filling the room with clutter. On a dressing table it works alongside a mirror and small bottles; on a chest of drawers or a bedside piece it looks like something set down and left there. Because it is a single piece rather than part of a set, it is an easy way to finish a room you have already furnished.

The Display & Storage group is where the pieces that hold and show small items sit, from the cabinets that display miniatures to the boxes and cases that keep a collection together. Mini Furniture covers the tables, chests and dressing pieces this box sits on, and Mini Plants and Stationery Props provide anything else the room needs once the storage is in place.

Lift the box by its body rather than by the lid, set it down on a flat surface, and dust it with a soft dry brush instead of a damp cloth. Keep it out of long spells of direct sun and away from damp, and give it a corner of the surface rather than the spot a hand reaches across most often when you are rearranging the scene.
