  • Apprehensive about carrying your favorite jewelry pieces while in transit? A specially designed travel case is the perfect solution.
  • Our top pick, the Leatherology Large Jewelry Case, has ample pockets made to hold everything from dainty rings to necklaces.

I want to be someone who packs light, I really do. But I'm a mood dresser - I never know exactly what I'll want to wear until mere moments before the occasion arises. This philosophy extends to jewelry, which makes it tricky to decide what pieces to bring on vacation. I always end up with way too much in my suitcase.

Packing jewelry on vacation is frankly a pretty risky endeavor to begin with. If you don't have an excellent travel jewelry case or otherwise fool-proof storage solution, you risk opening your luggage on a massacre of knotted chains and jumbled rings. I've permanently tangled some of my favorite necklaces by packing them improperly.

The good news is that there are plenty of well-made travel cases specifically designed to keep your favorite jewelry pieces safe while in transit. From small leather boxes with secure straps for rings and earrings to huge portfolios that can hold your entire collection, there's an option for everyone.

The best travel jewelry case overall

Why you'll love it: The Leatherology Large Jewelry Case is big enough to hold as many pieces as you'd possibly want to bring on vacation, without taking up too much room in your luggage.

Our obsession with affordable leather goods brand Leatherology is well-documented, so it's no surprise they make a great travel option for jewelry. The Large Jewelry Case is one of the best on the market. The design reminds me of those zippered school supply cases we had growing up in the '90s, only chic, minimalist, and meant to hold jewelry instead of Milky Pens.

The case is made of full-grain leather with a gentle suede interior to protect your valuables. Details include six leather tabs for securing up to three necklaces, a panel with 14 holes for earrings, a removable ring bar, and two zippered pockets. Despite the ample storage possibilities, the case has a slim silhouette and won't add a ton of bulk to your suitcase.

Available in 10 gorgeous colors, it's easy to find one that matches your aesthetic. And if that's not enough customization for you, the case can be personalized with a monogram. All that makes the $85 price tag a total steal, especially considering the quality of the leather.

The Leatherology Large Jewelry Case has a 5-star rating based on 67 reviews and has been featured by Best Products and My Domaine.

Pros: Full grain leather with suede interior, slim silhouette, ample storage options

Cons: Limited space for bulky pieces or bracelets

Why you'll love it: The Lily & Drew Travel Jewelry Storage Case is perfect for overpackers, plus it boasts a removable pouch for additional storage.

Planning a long vacation or simply can’t narrow down your options? The Lily & Drew Travel Jewelry Storage Case has ample room to store pieces of all sizes, plus an additional removable zipper pouch that you can toss in your carry-on.

This case has six necklace holders with coordinating pouches to keep them from tangling in transit, plus a horizontal ring loop, 28 earring holes, and two zipper pouches.

The nylon exterior is water resistant, while the velvety lining guards against wear-and-tear. Additionally, there’s an outside pocket for easy access on the go.

The Lily & Drew case has an extremely high 4.8 out of 5 star rating on Amazon, based on 530+ reviews.

"The size is just right for travel. It will hold plenty of jewelry for a trip — no more trying to pick and choose what I want to bring! I especially love that the ring organizer goes across instead of up and down, so all the rings don't slide down on top of one another," writes one shopper.

Another says, "This is Beautiful, well thought out jewelry organizer. A place for everything."

Pros: Affordable, lots of storage, water-resistant exterior

Cons: Not as stylish as some other options

Why you'll love it: The Cuyana Mini Jewelry Case stylishly holds a pared-down selection for a weekend away.

Cuyana makes pitch-perfect leather goods to suit every occasion. The brand's Mini Jewelry Case is a fantastic option for storing a select few pieces in style. It's ideal for short weekend trips, and if you're the type who travels often you may even find yourself leaving it packed and ready-to-go at all times.

This paired-down version of the brand's full-size Jewelry Case features a leather strip for storing rings and/or earrings, plus a drawstring felt pouch in the bottom. The gorgeous Italian leather can be personalized with Cuyana's signature monogramming and comes in five rich colors. Gold hardware and a tassel zipper pull add luxurious finishing touches.

A major downside of this design is the lack of an individual necklace holder — you could store one in the drawstring pouch, but there's no guarantee a delicate chain won't get tangled. But if you gravitate more toward rings, earrings, and bracelets, this is a great option.

Cuyana jewelry cases come recommended by My Domaine, Best Products, and Corey Egan.

Pros: Small size, Italian leather, combo ring and earring storage bar

Cons: No dedicated necklace holders, expensive

Why you'll love it: You can store up to 12 necklaces and/or bracelets with the UnionPlus Velvet Travel Jewelry Case Roll Bag.

Let's face it — necklaces are the worst to travel with, and some jewelry holders are severely lacking in options for necklace storage. Keep your precious delicate chains and chunky pendants tangle-free in the UnionPlus Velvet Travel Jewelry Case.

This roll-style jewelry travel case unfurls to reveal 12 button-closure holders for necklaces or bracelets. It's not the most visually attractive option out there, but who decided luggage needs to look good, anyway? Doesn't it do enough without also fulfilling our chic French girl fantasies at the same time?

While the version we're highlighting here is for necklaces only, the same brand offers a few iterations with spaces for rings, earrings, etc. If you're a necklace obsessive, though, you can't go wrong with this super bare-bones pick. All of them have the same flexible, easy to pack design.

The UnionPlus Velvet Travel Jewelry Case is an Amazon's Choice item with a 4.4 rating based on 55 reviews and has also been featured by Bustle.

"What a great alternative to bulky jewelry boxes.No more dealing with tangled necklaces! It's so compact when you roll it in, so it saves me so much space! My husband and I found these so helpful that we ordered more! Shipping was fast too!" writes one reviewer.

Pros: Holds up to 12 necklaces, flexible material, velvet-like interior, affordable

Cons: Only for necklaces or small bracelets

Why you'll love it: The Mejuri Travel Case is surprisingly compact for how much jewelry it can stash on the inside.

A small jewelry case doesn’t have to mean limited storage options. Carry-on only travelers will love the Mejuri Travel Case. The compact, wallet-sized jewelry holder is small enough to fit in your purse, but thanks to some smart design, stashes everything you need for long weekend.

The blush-colored grain leather exterior gives way to a tarnish-resistant suede lining outfitted with four necklace hooks, a stretch pocket, six earring holes, and a snap-closure ring holder.

You can pack a surprising amount of jewelry in such a tiny package. There’s no extraneous room — only enough space for the pieces you need.

This is a great pick if you like to keep some extra jewelry with you wherever you go. Plus, the design is beautiful; no clunky details or attractive materials to be found.

Because of the soft interior suede and the zip closure, this is a wonderful option for storing more valuable jewelry, especially since you can easily pack it in a carry-on.

Pros: Compact design, holds necklaces, earrings, rings, zip closure, anti-tarnish suede lining

Cons: Expensive for the size
