jewelry Boxes For Women Often Utilized as Movie Props

Jewelry boxes for women and Hollywood films have had a connection for a long time. Jewelry boxes have often been used as a focal point in many Hollywood films.

I'm sure you have seen dozens of scenes where someone lifts the lid of a jewelry box, music starts playing and the camera zooms in on the ballerina turning giving you a sense of fear and anxiety. More often than not, jewelry boxes in these films hold the clues to a little girl who's been missing or they stir childhood memories of a grown woman. At times, it may be the only tie a little girl has to her dead mother. Whatever they symbolize, jewelry boxes in movies are more than just a prop. They possess a mystery within them.

One unforgettable film, which had a musical box, is the 'Black Swan', where Natalie Portman got the Oscar nod for her role as Nina, the frail and deeply disturbed prima ballerina. Each night she would go to bed with all her stuffed animals as she gazed at the ballerina twirling to the tune of Swan Lake. Scenes like these evoke an eerie feeling that is quite disturbing.

Another scary movie that effectively featured a jewelry box was 'What Lies Beneath' starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford. When a jewelry box is discovered by Claire, Pfeiffer's character, at the lake at the back of their house, it leads her to solve the puzzle of the death/murder of the person whose ghost has been constantly appearing before her. It seems that most movies with jewelry boxes are suspense films or psychological thrillers.

But other genres have used these boxes as props as well. Johnny Depp's 'The Pirates of the Caribbean' series of movies have used treasure chests and all sorts of jewelry boxes. Jewelry boxes have a certain appeal that some movies are cashing in on them selling them as movie merchandise.

The very successful 'Twilight' series has been manufacturing Twilight Jewelry Boxes featuring Bella's and Edward's image on the outside of the box. Once you open it, you will see the Cullen crest as "Bella's Lullaby" is playing.

Jewelry boxes are most likely to become heirlooms to be passed on to the next generations. Fond memories as well as deep secrets are often attached to them. They are a symbol of something more than just the items inside, whether in real life or just in the movies.

If you keep pieces that have been given to you by important people in your life, a jewelry box can mean a celebration of love. It can also be a record of your childhood. The box is a part of who you are. Just looking at it, a jewelry box may look like a storage container for all your prized possessions.

But just like in movies, if you dig a little deeper, you will discover a greater meaning behind the box that will symbolize how you have chosen to live your life.
