subject: Defying Time And Space: The Tardis-like Properties Of A Jewelry Box [print this page] The gloriously and unapologetically over-the-top sci-fi series Doctor Who has been on for decades. In that time, there has been an element of the show that has become just as well-known and iconic as the Doctor himself. Namely, his means of transport: the laws-of-physics-defying TARDIS. Stuck in the permanent guise of a police call box large enough to hold one grown person, inside the TARDIS is a vast spaceship control center and laboratory. The TARDIS also has the ability to travel unrestricted through time and space. Really, it seems to have a quite a lot in common with a quality jewelry box.
Like the TARDIS, a jewelry box seems to have a great deal more capacity than one would expect from first glance. There are several types of jewelry box that take up very little space in their normal resting spot on a dresser or a vanity table. When they are opened, however, they reveal an incredibly vast array of jewelry storage. Drawers and sub-compartments can hold various types and sizes of pieces, ring rolls keep rings secure and rows of hooks keep necklaces untangled. All of this storage is able to fit in a very small space, which is a marvel of design and construction.
Some kinds of jewelry box, like the TARDIS, can also easily travel through space. A jewelry box designed to be mobile and used for travel purposes boasts the same impressive storage capabilities with the added bonus of being easily mobile. Your jewelry stays cared for and organized wherever you go when you keep it in a travel jewelry box.
Finally, we come to the most spectacular aspect of the both the TARDIS and the jewelry box: the ability to travel through time. How does a jewelry box do this? In can do it in a few different ways. The sturdy, durable construction of a jewelry box ensures that it will stand the test of time and that it will be able to be passed down through the generations. The timeless, classic design of a jewelry box also ensures that it will retain its appeal as the years go by so it will be just as admired and appreciated several years from now as it is today. It will also preserve your most precious jewelry, allowing you to hold onto it for longer, so the memories tied to them can take you back in time as the jewelry itself moves forwards.
Thanks to something as deceptively simple as a jewelry box, such things are no longer science fiction any more. Now all you need is a big, stylish scarf.
