The Personalised Musical Jewellery Box: The Full Story
Quick Answer
Our Personalised Musical Jewellery Box ($169) features a wind-up ballerina that twirls to Swan Lake, an interior mirror, ring slots, and jewellery compartments, all beneath a custom-engraved name in a floral wreath. It's made to order in our Southland studio in candyfloss pink or classic white, and stock runs limited — many of our restocks sell out during presale.
Some pieces earn cult status, and this is one of ours. It's the box that gets opened on a birthday morning, wound up one more time, and quietly kept for decades. Here's everything that goes into it — and who it's for.
What's Inside
Lift the lid and a small wind-up ballerina twirls to the classic Swan Lake melody — the detail most people fall for first. Inside, there's a mirror set into the lid, dedicated ring slots, and compartments for jewellery, so it's genuinely useful as well as beautiful. It locks with a key, which comes included.
The Engraving
The exterior is where the personalisation lives — a name in elegant script, surrounded by an etched floral wreath across the lid. Style and font are fixed as pictured, so all we need from you is the one name you'd like engraved (limited to a single name per box).
Colour and Size
Candyfloss Pink
A soft, classic pink finish — the traditional choice for a first jewellery box.
Classic White
A timeless, neutral finish that suits any nursery or bedroom palette.
Each box measures 8 x 6 x 4.3 inches, comfortably sized to sit on a dresser or shelf.
Who It's For
This is one of our most-loved gifts for a newborn girl, a first birthday, a christening, or any milestone that deserves something genuinely special. It's not designed as a plaything — small parts pose a choking hazard, so we recommend it's kept as a keepsake and handled with care rather than given to young children to play with directly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What melody does the Musical Jewellery Box play?
The wind-up ballerina twirls to the classic Swan Lake melody every time the lid is opened.
What colours is it available in?
Candyfloss pink or classic white — both engraved to order in our Southland studio.
Is it safe for a baby to play with?
It's designed as a keepsake rather than a toy. Small parts pose a choking hazard, so it's not recommended for young children to handle directly — better loved, displayed, and kept safe until they're older.
Is stock always available?
Stock runs limited on this piece, and restocks often sell out during presale. If you have a specific date in mind, we'd recommend ordering as early as possible.
Can I add more than one name?
Personalisation is limited to one name per box, engraved in the fixed script font and wreath design shown.
