Trying to find a cool jewelry chest for my wife. I think I've settled on the 9 drawer Nelson mini chest but I've also seen some McCobb cases that would work. Anything else out there? Thanks for the help!

If you can afford it,
I doubt that there would anything more beautiful and elegant as a Nelson Miniature Chest. She's apparently one lucky woman.

Not sure if your and her taste runs toward the industrial but...
I use a small Craftsman tool chest. Bright red, great lines lots of little drawers, locable and way too freakin' heavy to steal! Plus it's on wheels and can tuck into a closet.

Not really
I store all kinds of other stuff in it. Important documents, a couple of collectibles, that I can't part with but don't want to look at, and some other stuf like that. I really only use the top two drawers for jewelry.

I like your style, Olive!

Paul McCobb miniature chest
I just saw the real deal today. Held it in my hands, opened all the drawers, turned it over, lusted after it in general. It's at Galerie in West Palm Beach.

Pricy, pricy, pricy at $7,800 but truly stunning.
They also have a George Nelson miniature chest at a mere $11,500 but I liked the McCobb one much better.

Ha...Olive your jewelry...
Ha...Olive your jewelry chest is audacious! What I like most about it, is that it challenges the retraints of gender roles and identity in a really potent way. Pretty cool Olive!

Paul McCobb miniature chest
Curious thing, after extensive research into the subject, there's absolutely no information to support the Paul McCobb attribution here.
