Indeed, as a Ladies' Manual from 1833 reminds us, precious stones and gold jewellery must be perfectly protected from humidity and preserved from any dirty or greasy contact: "It is advisable to rub them from time to time with a piece of white or chamois leather"and then place them in the "jewellery box". In French, the word "écrin", synonymous with "boîte à bijoux" (jewellery box), is originally derived from the Latin word "crines", meaning "hair", and was used to preserve souvenirs made of hair. Later on, the use of Jewellery boxes was extended to include all the useful and necessary accessories for the embellishment of the head: earrings, necklaces and combs. Nowadays we add bracelets, chains, rings, etc. " The item we present to you is made of faux leather in a rectangular format to escape the standardisation of jewellery boxes, "Made in China".
