About Mele
Emidio Mele, an Italian immigrant to the United States, came to New York City in 1896 and learned to make jewelry boxes as an apprentice before founding Mele Manufacturing in 1912. He began by designing and building elegant displays for jewelry store windows. His jewelry box making business grew throughout the 1900s, responding to demands for boxes to hold Purple Hearts during WWII and developing as a popular household name for quality jewelry boxes. Today Mele Jewelry Box is known as the Mele Companies, which encompass various divisions under the Mele name. Now based in Utica, N.Y., Mele still upholds the family atmosphere on which it was founded and remains America's foremost name in jewelry cases.

I am very surprised at all the positive reviews. I bought this because of many positive reviews and because it said 'solid wood construction'. It is NOT solid wood, but solid PARTICLE BOARD. I wanted a beautiful jewelry box that my daughter would treasure forever and this was a HUGE disappointment. Very cheaply made and very cheap laminate 'sticker' covering. Ballerina even sticks and i read that on another review too that thought hers would be the only one.

I am sending mine back. Good if you want something for your daughter to play with, but I want one she'll treasure for years and this is not it. I realize I'll have to pay a lot more for solid wood construction, but it will be worth it.

      Comments about Mele Cristiana Ballerina Musical Jewelry Box - 9.25W x 8H in.:

      The plastic coating(paper) that was applied over the wood was put on poorly. You can see all kinds of air bubbles on the surface. Also the 4 drawers don't fit in place evenly. I bought this for my 5 year old daughter's b-day and was very disappointed with this product.

            The jewelry box is nice and I knew it wasn't real wood but seems pretty solid. As long as it doesn't break too easy, I'm happy with it. Mostly I was impressed with how fast shipping was!!!!!!!!!!!!!
