Velvet vs PU jewelry boxes FAQ

When should I choose velvet over PU jewelry boxes?
Velvet usually wins for gift-forward retail handoff and classic bridal / boutique presentation. Confirm sizes and pack counts on each product page and with sales@jewelrypackagingmall.com.
How is this different from the wholesale velvet jewelry boxes collection?

Can one jewelry brand use both velvet and PU boxes?
Yes—many wholesale programs run velvet for one line and PU / leatherette for another. Compose from live SKUs; do not assume a single site-wide kit.
