The Best Travel Jewelry Cases We’ve Tested

We loved the Cuyana Travel Jewelry Case so much that, after testing it in the lab, we went out and bought it ourselves. Nearly two years later, it’s still one of our must-have travel essentials—in fact, we’ve already packed it for our upcoming trip to Barcelona.

Made with genuine leather and suede, this case is built to last. The exterior is soft yet sturdy, and it has remained scuff-free, even after being tossed around and kicked. 

Unlike larger cases that sometimes have wasted space, this one is compact yet surprisingly roomy. Despite its palm-sized design–small enough that we could fit it in our jacket pocket–we could fit nine rings on the removable ring strap, multiple pairs of earrings on the removable earring strap and a bracelet. On the earring strap, you can put dangling earrings, studs, or hoops. We love that you can remove the ring and earring straps if your jewelry collection skews in that direction.

The only thing we’d change is that this case has a pouch for necklaces rather than individual hooks, which makes them more prone to tangling.

For a quarter of the price of our best overall, this jewelry organizer was comparable in quality, thanks to its lightweight yet roomy feel. It has five storage compartments: a ring band that snaps on and off, a panel for earrings, five straps to secure necklaces, a zippered pouch for storage, and a side zippered pocket.

The main zipper runs around the entire case, making it easy to open fully, and the ring hooks snap on and off effortlessly. The only issue we encountered involved the earring holder—due to the positioning of the holes, we could only fit hoops on the ends.

Our favorite part of this case is its handle, which lets us carry it like a purse or toss it into our carry-on luggage. After shaking the case, the interior looked a bit messy, but thanks to the hooks and straps, the necklaces didn’t tangle.

Looking for a personalized gift? You can’t beat the Mark and Graham Jewelry Case. It comes in over 25 colors and can be customized with a monogram. But the chic pebbled leather exterior isn’t just for show—it’s also durable.

After some rough handling, we were shocked to find that it kept its shape perfectly, meaning that even if you smush it down in an overpacked suitcase, your jewelry will be unaffected. When we shook it and dropped it, every item stayed in place. 

It has a handy built-in mirror, ideal for earrings or makeup touch-ups, and behind the mirror, it has three hooks for necklaces or larger pieces (though these weren’t as secure as we’d hoped.) We also wished the dividers were removable to make room for chunkier jewelry, though this wasn’t a dealbreaker.

Sometimes less is more, and this ultra-lightweight jewelry case is perfect for those looking to keep just a few small pieces on hand. Despite having the least amount of storage of the options on our list, its small size made it easy to find our favorite pieces.

It has two hooks and a catchall pouch for necklaces, a small zippered pouch for bracelets or large earrings, a tiny removable ring bar, and a detachable earring bar that can fit two pairs of smaller earrings. 

We wish stud holes were farther apart, as we could only fit dainty studs or one pair of chunkier earrings. However, we liked that we could store our hoops in the pouch. The leather exterior felt soft and durable, while the inner snaps felt secure. We think it’s great for minimalists traveling with few accessories. And the best part? It’s small enough to toss in your work bag.

We appreciated the cushioned interior of this medium-sized case, with lots of handy organization compartments. While it may be bulky for a weekender bag, it won’t take up too much space in your checked luggage. Plus, our jewelry stayed secure after the toss test. 

It’s nice enough to double as your at-home jewelry box. We would have liked a few more necklace hooks, but other than that, we found this case to be pretty much perfect. Plus, it comes with a removable pouch that you could use to store jewelry within the box or take on its own.

If chunky statement jewelry is your thing, you need a jewelry case that’s up for the challenge. That’s why we loved the Calpak Jewelry Case.

While we were initially hesitant about how much the palm-sized case could fit, we were amazed by its capacity, especially in the drawstring pouch. It managed to fit several pairs of hoops, bracelets, a wristwatch, two dainty necklaces, a thicker costume necklace, and three rings, all with room to spare. We also liked that its small pockets were folded in, preventing scratches and maximizing space. 

Made with a faux leather exterior, we could tell this case is durable. Its larger size may be a bit excessive for shorter trips, but for those with extensive jewelry collections, it’s a worthy investment.

If you want to bring all your jewelry on a trip but have limited space, a foldable organizer like the Bagsmart Travel Jewelry Organizer Roll will save a ton of room in your suitcase. During testing, we fit several pairs of earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and rings, and then folded it up to fit in a tote or large suitcase. The rollable design makes it easy to see everything laid out at once. 

We found the buttons helpful for storing rings and necklaces, while the zipper compartments worked well for bracelets and smaller items. The buttons and polyester material did feel a bit flimsy, but it was still easy to add all of our jewelry, and everything stayed in place. The roll didn’t pop open, even after several drops. Although this isn’t the highest quality option on our list, the low price and large capacity make it a great choice.

Staying organized, particularly with smaller items, can be difficult, but we found the Vee&Co. Small Travel Jewelry Case to have just the right amount of organization without feeling overwhelming. It has enough ring pillows for seven rings, plus removable dividers that you can adjust for dainty and chunky jewelry.

We loved that it had a spot for every type of accessory—bracelets, rings, necklaces, studs, and hoops—making it simple (and satisfying) to pack. 

Given its low price tag (less than $20), we were amazed by this case’s durability. Even after dropping it multiple times and shaking it vigorously, all of the jewelry stayed exactly where we’d left it.

The quality felt a little flimsy, which isn’t surprising considering the price, and the mirror seemed poorly made. However, we think its impressive organization, convenient size, and durability make it a real steal.
