How do your store your necklaces, especially if $$$$?

In the good old days, they would come in a necklace box. Now, its a pouch for some reason most of the time. But boxes take up a lot of space so, do you have a special box? Looking for ideas/suggestions. TIA!

I have a clear acrylic necklace stand, it' a carousel style with lots of hooks around it. It has a case it nestles into to keep it dust free. I think it was from the container store. I have two. Couldn't live without them. But they are only for shorter necklaces, like up to 20". The longer ones I hang on a belt hanger inside my closet. That works great too.

I have a tall chest and on the door is a place for necklaces. Unfortunately, not enough, so the rest are kept in their boxes and forget what I have.

I keep all the boxes, marked for each necklace. I'm always thinking some day I will be handing them over to family members and nice to give in a box.

I use the Colleen Lopez jewelry boxes that stack and then they are inside the safe. They are really well made and make organizing and keeping jewelry from getting tangled and messed up very easy. They are not expensive either. HSN sells them and they have different ones for different jewelry such as necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings. Also in a large variety of colors.

I also use the Colleen Lopez Prestige boxes. I own the necklace box that has 3 drawers. Had mine a few years now - don’t know if she sells it anymore. Each drawer has 7 hooks, but I can fit a few more in each tray. My gold necklaces are in one drawer, silver in another, and less expensive fashion necklaces in the third drawer. I can lay all my necklaces flat, and the tarnish resistant lining is a plus.

I have something similar to this box. It has a removable tray and below it there are more troughs, larger than the ones on the upper tray. I never use it because it doesn't have an anti-tarnish lining and most of my things are sterling. I have my costume jewelry and some other things in it now. It's tucked away on my bookshelf.

I use my Lori Granier silver safe jewelry amoire.

I added large pearl straight pins in the large ring area at the top. I don't have 100 rings, no do I want them. I hang fine jewelry necklaces on the pins.

My large pendants and cuff bracelets go on the shelves.

I have a jewelry box with the special lining to keep my items tarnish ree for 2025 years. It's a standard size with hooks and drawers. The Collen Lopez jewelry boxes seem to be more space friendly. I have purchased the Lori Grenier jewelry boxes as gifts and they work well.

I have one of those carousel things, but it is out in the open. I'm waiting for it to fall over one of these days and all those chains will be tangled together. I've even thought of putting tiny nails into the wall (wood, log cabin) but DH would have a coniption.

I have some in a holder that fits on the back of my bedroom drawer. It is shaped like a curvy dress with velcro. Got it on the Q. I have a few that shouldn't hang in a small jewelry armoire in my foyer. Pearls are in armoire in boxes that are labeled.

But I wasn't wearing them. Out of sight; out of mine.

So now I rotate them and hang a few on the back of a rocking chair in my living room. Guests like to look at them. Sounds strange but I live in a prewar city apartment with very little storage space.

I clearly have too many necklaces.

I have one of these too & I LOVE it! Mine is mounted on the wall next to my closet.

I have a Mele jewelry box (much like H188147) and store one chain per square. I've never had trouble with tarnishing but I do put one of those little anti-tarnish squares with the few silver pieces I have.

I have many many Colleen Lopez Prestige jewelry boxes. One of them is just for hanging necklaces. I don’t wear necklaces much anymore but get them out once in awhile to look at because I forget what I have. I don’t see her boxes in their inventory much anymore. My favorite are her smaller size ones that I use to store my jewelry by various collections. I especially like them because of the clear lid because I can see what is in it without opening it.
