Elizabeth Jewelry Armoire – Locking Top with Mirror, Cord Access, 8 Drawer Organizer, Side Necklace Hooks, Anti-Tarnish Lining, 40 Inch Tall

I’ve been on the fence about buying a jewelry armoire for some time. My grandmother had a lovely one that I admired for many years, and when she passed away last year, I asked if I could have it. Unfortunately, another family member took it (which was totally okay), but I couldn’t stop thinking about getting one for myself.I began shopping around for one several months ago and found a few I wanted, but I was hesitant to commit to a particular style for several reasons.I knew the armoire would be too difficult to return after unpacking it, so I HAD to be sure I was ordering exactly what I wanted. I knew I wanted one that locked, I wanted it to be tall and have full-sized side doors, and I wanted it to have drawers down the entire front.I looked at this armoire and another one by Hives and Honey (a beautiful teal blue one that locked completely), and I would have bought that one had it come in black.After opening this armoire, I’m more than delighted that I chose this style instead of the other one. It’s absolutely stunning! The style is lovely — the lines are clean, the red distressing is striking against the crisp black finish, and the side doors blend in with the shape and snap closed firmly.It arrived with no damage at all. I was surprised by just how much styrofoam was packed around the armoire and it fit so securely within the shipping box, there was no wiggle room.Attaching the top was exceptionally quick and easy and I was pleasantly surprised that each drawer is held in place by two short dowels. You can’t see them unless you’re looking for them, so don’t grab a draw and try to yank it out or you might damage the drawer and/or dowels.Some people are turned off by the way the drawers tilt forward when they’re pulled open, but I rather appreciate it. I can see everything inside much easier this way and yes, some things do slide forward, but I have items held in place using drawer organizers, so the tilt is minimally disruptive.The armoire is heavy! It’s not so light that I worry it’ll tip over, even with two nosy cats and a toddler in the house. That being said, it is not solid wood in the traditional sense. It is particleboard. Please keep that in mind if you’re looking for an armoire of solid oak or pine.If you’re on the fence of not completely sure, as I was, take a chance. This armoire is exquisite and I would not hesitate to gift it or recommend it to a friend or family member (in fact, I already have. I suggested a coworker purchase it for his wife and hide a new piece of jewelry inside).

Tall, solid and sturdy. Arrives 95% assembled! The unit is handsome and of surprisingly high quality in design, construction and finish. You must be careful when shopping for mail order furniture. This Jewelry Armoire is the real article. It will fit in with most showroom bought bedroom furniture and dressing.

Though the box had suffered quite a bit of damage the armoire was pristine. That is when I noticed the touches of red on the edge of drawers and other places. This isn’t damage but I believe it is supposed to add character to the piece. The description does not included this. Not horrible but not what I ordered.

So beautiful and it holds and organizes so much! I was debating on this due to price but I’m glad I decided to get it. It’s even more beautiful in person and has a number of high quality touches. There are a few red streaks on edges that I wasn’t expecting but they’re really beautiful and accent the finish nicely. They’re not super obvious so it still is black overall.

came fully scratched, the quality is so so, i do not recommend this product, you can buy much better for this price, disappointed!

Great product. My wife love the Christmas present. She now has plenty of storage capacity and it is well built and very sturdy. It was super easy to assemble the one piece that required assembly.

Unfortunately, the armoire did not have pre-drilled holes for attachment of the lid. The actual black finish was atrocious-had bare wood slivers showing throughout the piece. I have contacted Hives and Honey and they are supposedly sending me paint to do the touch-ups myself. When a purchase is made, you expect the best-especially the posted reviews that gave it a 4 and 5-star rating. I did a lot of research before I made this purchase and, needless to say, am less than happy. I did not have the resources to return the piece (repacking, transportation, etc.). So, now, I will become a furniture repairman.

Got this as a gift for my mother very nice and well worth the money has lots of space no problems
