Gifts For Women Who Have Everything: Traditional Wooden Jewelry Boxes
Looking for gifts for women who have everything who are very choosy can be a daunting task because you don't know if they will like them or not. For women who love to accessorize, it's always a good choice to give her something that will help her organize her growing jewelry collection. Big or small, she’ll love the idea of keeping her valuables in a safe and secure container.
The popularity of jewelry boxes became imminent during the 18th century. The royalty and the nobility commonly collected these precious boxes. They were made with enamel coating and exquisitely decorated with gold or silver with ornate gems and other precious stones.
The more expensive jewelry boxes today are made almost the same way and follow the traditional techniques. But to make them more accessible to everyone who wishes to have their own, other types of materials are being used. There are boxes made from leather, wood veneers, plastics, and natural materials like bark, seashells, and various types of plant fibers.
Marquetry, a popular technique in woodworking, is also used in creating finely crafted jewelry boxes. It’s a traditional art form that combines colored pieces made of brass, tortoiseshell, bone, pewter, ivory and other fine metals. Wooden jewelry boxes are made from thin strips of various types of wood like oak, maple, cherry, and mahogany to give the artisans a diverse palette of colors for the boxes.
These thin strips of wood called veneers are produced to expose the wood grain patterns. Creating these fine wood veneers is an art that dates back in history and requires the use of special tools. In order to create elaborate patterns and designs, artisans use varying types of wood and incorporate other techniques like burning and dyeing.
Wood grains are available in an assortment of grain patterns because of the diversity of species of trees. Species like cherry, birch, maple, and oak are more commonly used, however, rare and exotic trees like eucalyptus and rosewood are also considered. Colors of wood may be limited to reds, browns, and yellows but dyed veneers are also used to add visual texture and balance to the design.
Carefully selected and finished hard wood not only reduce the cost of materials in creating fine jewelry boxes but they also give the craftsmen an extensive scope when it comes to designs. These timbers, when cut, have repeated patterns that can be utilized for more dazzling decorative effects. The use of veneers also makes the construction of these boxes even stronger as well as allowing curves and joints to appear smoother and more polished.
With the endless variety of richly textured and colored wood to choose from, there's also an extensive assortment when it comes to designs depending on how creative the manufacturers are. Wooden jewelry boxes make lovely gifts any time of the year and can surely make any occasion even more memorable. And with so many styles to choose from, you'll never run out of ideas for an exquisitely crafted and well-made box perfect in keeping both valuables and memories.
