Whether you’re heading to a bachelorette weekend, destination wedding, or honeymoon, it's important to keep your jewelry organized, tangle-free, and safe in transit. That's why it's important to have the right travel jewelry case to store your gems—ideally something that separates pieces with built-in dividers or sections.

"Look for features like soft interior lining to protect against scratches, adjustable compartments for different types of jewelry, and a secure closure to keep everything in place," say travel experts Robert Lora and Marta Pahino Estevez. "A compact design made with lightweight materials is also essential, as it will be easier to pack and transport your jewelry without taking up too much space in your luggage."

We’ve compiled a selection of the most functional, durable, and stylish travel jewelry cases that will keep your accessories secure, wherever your travels take you.

When shopping for a travel jewelry case, you’ll want to identify a few key factors. Besides budget, size is usually the biggest concern. Size determines how much jewelry you can store and bring, which varies depending on your intended use. If you only plan to bring a select few pieces, you don't need a giant case. It’ll just take up unnecessary space in your luggage. Instead take a compact case that will still keep your pieces protected like, Away Jewelry Box. However, if you want to keep all your jewelry in one case for convenience, you’ll want to opt for a larger capacity box, like Extra Large Leather Jewelery Box.

Jewelry cases come in several materials—the most popular being leather (or vegan leather), velvet, high-quality paper, and wood. Some people prefer a hard exterior to protect in case of falls or bangs. Others go for designs that they can roll up, like the Teamoy Jewelry Roll. The soft shape allows it to fit into more nooks and crannies in your suitcase. Be sure to look for soft, well-padded interior lining to ensure that your gems don't get scratched or damaged. Suede, velvet, and microfiber are suitable.

Make sure the jewelry case has built-in mechanisms to prevent tanging, like separate compartments and dividers that keep each item in place. Think about what pieces you’ll be packing and let that guide you when choosing a box. Some cases are only for certain types of jewelry, like sadkew Velvet Ring Organizer while others can hold all types of jewelry, like KElofoN Travel Jewelry Case which has dividers like ring rolls, hooks for earrings, and compartments for bracelets.

A case with compartments is the best thing to use to keep jewelry safe and secure. If you don't have a jewelry case on hand yet, ​​Lora and Pacino Estevez suggest "using small plastic bags, pill organizers, or even repurposing a clean, empty egg carton to keep items separated and protected."

If you have access to a hotel safe, locking your jewelry inside is your safest bet. If not, you can purchase a small lock for your luggage to keep it secure. Protecting your ring with insurance is another wise way to safeguard your investment.

If you don't have a jewelry case to keep your necklaces protected, Lora and Pahino Estevez suggest "threading them through a drinking straw or wrapping them individually in tissue paper or plastic wrap."

Even within your jewelry case, they recommend fastening the clasps of your necklaces and placing them in separate compartments within your jewelry organizer.
