Jewelry Travel Case

A jewelry travel case is a must for anyone who values their jewelry whether that be monetary or sentimental value.

It also does not matter if you travel regularly or only a few times a year.

The last thing you want to do is lose your jewelry.

Your monetary loss may be covered by travel or home insurance.

However, such insurance does not cover the stress and anxiety felt over the loss of jewelry that has real sentimental value.

I say this, because I lost some jewelry a few months ago. It taught me a hard lesson and left me chastising myself for days, over my loss and my stupidity.

The loss of just this one piece of jewelry caused me profound anxiety and guilt since it was my mother's wedding ring, passed to her from her mother and handed down to me.

I have no idea where I lost it, except that it was during a weeks summer break.

I didn’t have a jewelry travel case and didn’t think that I had much use for such a thing on such a short trip.

An occasional necklace and a bracelet was usually all I wore apart from my mother’s ring. I really didn’t think that a jewelry travel case was necessary for so few items.

However, my loss has taught me that a Jewelry Travel Case is well worth the investment, even with only one single item of jewelry along for the trip.

A Jewelry Case Keeps You Organized

I have since learned that a jewelry travel case helps to keep you organized even during the most hectic of days.

Having a travel jewelry case, even if it's only a small one, means you get into the habit of always putting jewelry into the one place when you're not wearing it.

Keeping valuables in your purse or handbag may seem like a good option, but I can guarantee you that it's not.

I know this because I put my mother’s ring in the change compartment of my purse sometime during the trip and then I must have lost it.

Perhaps the ring fell out whilst I was fumbling for change, I will never know.

What annoyed me was that I put the ring in my purse for a really stupid reason.

I wanted to communicate
loud and clear - I was "available."

It wasn't until a couple of days later I discovered the ring was missing and despite looking every where and making myself quite ill in the process, it was never seen again.


For my next trip I bought a Jewelry Travel Case just to keep a pair of special earrings in it.

My friend was amused by this and asked why I would take a jewelry travel case just to keep one little pair of earrings. "Because I want to take them home again," I replied.

I'm glad to say, I never lost another piece of jewelry after buying a jewelry travel case. I like to think that over the years it has saved me a lot of stress, grief and anxiety as well as a lot of money.
