Description
This little trinket box takes the form of a fairy crown resting on a closed book, made in metal with a shiny gold finish. The crown's arches rise to a purple finial and are set all over with small amber-toned sparkles, catching the light from every side, while its band sits on a book with purple covers, white page edges and fine gold detailing along the spine and corners. It stands about 6.1cm tall, 5cm wide and 4.9cm deep, so it is petite enough to sit almost anywhere and still be noticed.
We think it looks most at home on a dressing table or bedside table, where it can hold the small things that tend to go missing: a pair of stud earrings, a favourite ring, a spare button or a tiny keepsake. It also sits happily on a bookshelf, a mantelpiece or in a display cabinet, where the gold crown and purple book add a touch of fairytale charm to a row of books or ornaments. Anyone who loves sparkle, stories or a little make-believe will enjoy having it close by.
The book is the box: its top cover lifts on a small hinge at the spine, crown and all, to open onto a white interior edged in gold, and a small round catch inside each half meets to hold it closed. The space within is snug, sized for one or two small pieces rather than a whole jewellery box's worth. To keep the gold bright, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, which can dull a shiny finish. Set it out where the light can reach the crown, or wrap it in tissue as a small, sparkling present for someone who likes their treasures kept somewhere special.

What is the trinket box made of?
It is made in metal with a shiny gold finish on the crown. The crown is set with small amber-toned sparkles and sits on a purple and white book base.
