The Best Travel Jewelry Cases, Reviewed By Our Editors

• What’s notable: The reasonable price, well organized storage and built-in drawstring pouch that prevents items from falling out. 
• What could be better: Elasticized necklace compartments are tight, so it’s hard to get pieces in and out. 

Calpak’s smartly designed, zipped travel case has organizers for necklaces, rings and earrings, plus a main center pouch for bracelets—a feature not found in other cases. While this case is made from faux leather, it’s chic enough looking that you can display it at home, too. Overall, it’s a compact holder that serves most jewelry needs at a great price, which made it our top pick. 

Positive reviews say: “Offers protection and padding for all my jewelry” and “keeps everything protected and tangle free.” | Negative reviews say: “The case itself (when empty) is a little heavy” and some pockets are “really tight, so it’s hard to tuck things in and get them out again.” | Size: 7 x 5 x 2.5 inches | Design: Zip-around case | Materials: Polyurethane, polyester

• What’s notable: Compact size for just the essentials, made from durable leather with anti-tarnish interior that keep things tangle-free.
• What could be better: Only comes in two colors (black and nude).

Quince’s compact jewelry cube ticks all the boxes for those who take short trips or weekends away. It’s well designed to hold the basics, with four necklace hooks including pockets below, six holes for earrings and a padded roll for standard rings (sizes 5 and up). The Forbes Vetted team has tested out Quince for everything from bath robes to cashmere sweaters, and found the quality to be excellent for the price. 

Positive reviews say: “Perfect size and layout. Great quality;” and “holds a lot, and keeps everything organized.” | Negative reviews say: “Not good for small rings” especially sizes below 5 since the ring roll “is too large for them to slide on.” | Design: Zip-around cube | Size: 4 x 4 x 1.4 inches | Materials: Calfskin leather, ultrasuede

• What’s notable: Ample storage in a roll-up style that’s light and packable, and can be monogrammed (also comes in a gift box). 
• What could be better: Top pocket is too shallow for larger items, especially bracelets.  

Tapping into its leather goods expertise, Leatherology included a lot of smart details with this jewelry roll. The earring panel, for example, is protected by a leather flap that snaps shut to prevent scratches, and the ring bar is sized to fit even very small rings. Everything is held shut with a secure buckle for extra security. 

Positive reviews say: “The leather is excellent;” “I had it monogrammed for a more personalized look;” and it’s “very practical to use with nice size pockets, and a good closing buckle.” | Negative reviews say: “The top zipper pouch is very shallow so it can [only] hold rings or small pendants.” | Size: 4 x 8.5 x 1 inches | Design: Flat panel that rolls up with buckle closure | Materials: Full grain leather, suede

• What’s notable: Designed by a jewelry maker to prevent tarnishing and pockets help keep pieces tangle-free.
• What could be better: Not enough storage if you pack large-size jewelry. 

Known for their stylish and minimalist jewelry, Mejuri kept things simple but elegant for their travel case. It’s lined in anti-tarnish microsuede and has four necklace hooks with pockets, a panel with six holes for earrings and a ring holder. The dimensions are similar to Quince’s case but Mejuri offers custom monogramming, free of charge. 

Positive reviews say: This “little travel case fits a ton,” and it’s an “organized and compact way to transport your jewelry.” | Negative review say: Wish for “a little more wiggle room behind where the rings go so they don’t get so smushed when the button is closed.” | Size: 4 x 4 x 1.4 inches | Design: Zippered cube | Materials: Leather, microsuede

• What’s notable: Ample storage space, with a large mirror, and reasonable price for the size.
• What could be better: No anti-tarnish lining.

Mark & Graham—which is owned by Williams Sonoma—has excellent travel accessories, including jewelry cases in many sizes. If you need a large size in particular, this option includes a mirror panel with storage for earrings and rings on the back side, plus multiple compartments for bracelets and rings underneath. The only drawback is that this box is lined in linen rather than anti-tarnish suede, but linen can protect against scratches. The monogram options are extensive (and come in fun colors and modern foils), although there is a $12.50 fee for the service.

What the reviews say: N/A (not listed) | Size: 9.75 x 7.25 x 2.25 inches | Design: Zip-around case | Materials: Vegan leather, linen 

• What’s notable: Slim, wallet-like design, affordable price.
• What could be better: Certain colors sell out (such as the red).

Rellery’s vegan leather jewelry case has a wallet-like design that makes it especially convenient for tucking into a suitcase or carry-on bag. It also has a decent amount of storage space, with two zippered pockets, twelve spots for earrings, a padded ring bar and four snap-closure hooks with a catchall pouch for necklaces and bracelets. It’s not as sturdy or robust as some of the larger cases on this list, or lined in anti-tarnish materials, but it’s a handy way to carry jewelry and switch it between bags on the go. 

What the reviews say: N/A (not listed) | Size: 8 x 5 x 0.5 inches | Design: Zip-around wallet | Materials: Vegan leather

• What’s notable: High-quality leather that ages well and nubuck interior that prevents tarnishing.
• What could be better: No catchall pouch for storing necklaces. 

As far as luxury goes, Smythson has been making leather goods since 1887, and their jewelry cases are well regarded as some of the best (and most expensive) on the market. This entry-level case is made from durable crossgrain calf leather and holds just enough, with seven rings rolls and three compartments for bracelets and earrings. It seals shut with a sturdy snap closure and leather tab. The cons are that there’s no hanging option for necklaces or pouches to prevent tangles.
