In 1933 Jean Cocteau created a series of sketches for costume designs, clothes and fashions. The 28 drawings were found in a Chanel branded envelope with "Drawings by Jean C." handwritten by Paul Iribe, Cocteau's friend and Chanel's lover. Cocteau knew Chanel well and they worked together on several creative projects in fashion and for the stage. The sketches reveal another of Cocteau's talents, that of costume and fashion designer and carry his trademark fluidity of line.

"This portfolio of 28 drawings by Jean Cocteau, printed in Paris by Alain Tournevill on Rivoli Paper has been limited to 290 copies, numbered 1 to 290 and 10 copies, numbered I to X, containing an original drawing by Jean Cocteau reproduced in the portfolio. In addition there are 35 unnumbered copies. This is copy no 186". The next page has more information in English and French, I'll just repeat the English version; "The 28 drawings inside this portfolio were found in an envelope from the house of Chanel. "Drawings by Jean C." was handwritten on it by Paul Iribe, Cocteau's old friend and Chanel's lover. These sketches, drawn on writing paper, are costume designs for theatre, but also ideas that Chanel used for clothes and accessories. The collaboration between Cocteau and Chanel started in 1925, when they worked together for Diaghilev on the ballet "Le Train bleu". In 1937 she made the costumes for two of Cocteau's plays, "Les Chevalieres de la Table ronde" and "oedipe-Roi". This series of drawings was executed in 1933, when the poet and the designer were close friends. These sketches, spontaneous and yet precise, reveal a hiterto unknown facet of Jean Cocteau, the costume designer and couturier." The Chelsea Press London MCMLXXXIX

Perfect if you're anything like me
Color: White, Size: 2 Layer
I have about 20 small jewelry boxes sitting in my closet, stacked up high, threatening to topple over any time I reach over them to grab something else. I don't know what's in those boxes, except that it's jewelry I purchased and liked well enough to keep so that I could wear it again. But since all of the pieces are closed up inside, I almost never wear them because I don't want to dig through all 20 boxes to find the 1 thing I want when I'm already almost late to wherever I'm going. If ANY of that sounds anything like you, you need this jewelry box. Is it the most premium thing you've ever seen? No, but does it have a lot of storage space for a pretty compact form factor and hold a ton of stuff? Yes, it totally does. And is the price super reasonable? Yes, it is. And if you kind of squint at it, and look through softer eyes, it doesn't really matter that yes, this is kind of cheaply constructed, and the dividers do move around a little bit because they're not anchored to the sides of the trays. I was able to consolidate all of those jewelry boxes down into this one box, and I no longer need to hold my breath when I try to grab something over the top of the pile because I was able to throw. them. all. out! The satisfaction of purging my own personal leaning tower of Pisa was worth the price alone. But onto the nitty gritty details: yes, the see-through part is acrylic and not glass. I'm okay with that because I don't need more breakable things sitting in my closet. Yes, the dividers aren't super stable. I'm okay with that because they work well enough and keep each piece where it belongs. Yes, it's pleather (aka "vegan leather"). I'm okay with that because I don't need cow hide to hold my jewelry to make it feel more precious, especially because most of my jewelry is pretty inexpensive stuff anyways. I don't notice any glaring cosmetic defects when looking at it, aside from the one very squiggly scratch in my acrylic top that doesn't bother me too much, but since it does mean that quality control may be a bit lacking, this gets a very solid 4 stars.

Elegant Jewelry Box
Color: Pink, Size: 2 Layer, Color: Pink, Size: 2 Layer
Very stylish and elegant jewelry box suitable for your jewelry needs. I needed something for my extensive jewelry collection. I use this for my everyday jewelry, and it works perfectly. I chose the two-tier jewelry box, and I love how sturdy it is. You can put a lot in the box without it being overcrowded. The blush color gives it a soft look, but also the compartments on the inside are soft as well. It is of good quality and a value for what you get.
