Mele was founded in 1912 when Italian immigrant Emidio Mele and his wife opened a shop on New York City's Mulberry Street. There Emidio focused on designing and building elegant jewelry displays for stores and eventually cases for home storage. It was not long before Emidio's designs and craftsmanship attracted customers from the city's historic Fifth Avenue.
Emidio's sons took the business further, introducing the iconic musical jewelry box, the timeless twirling ballerina style, and earning the moniker "The Foremost Name in Jewel Cases."
Now in the third generation of family ownership and over 100 years in business, Mele & Co. continues to infuse the heritage of family into each jewelry box and to offer innovative and timeless designs for years of happiness and sentimental memories.
This charming Mele and Co wood, musical ballerina jewelry box is a modern take on a childhood classic. Open mirrored lift lid allows your little one to accessorize and coordinate as they get ready for their day. Once open, a whimsical ballerina figurine twirls gracefully to the tune of “Magic Flute”. Single drawer provides extra storage for all their precious pieces. White exterior with pink trim finish and pink suede interior.
Exclusively at Unforgettable, engrave the wood lid and/or front (above the two drawers). Consider personalizing with a name, monogram, or sweet message for the little girl to cherish forever.
