We offer a wide selection of 100% leather-free jewelry boxes and watch cases. For reasons of absolute transparency, however, we label our products as leather-free and not as 100% vegan.

The reason: During artisanal manufacturing, raw materials are necessarily used in which organic components cannot always be completely excluded due to production requirements.

If you want to avoid animal hides, our leather-free collections are the perfect choice. Here's what sets them apart:

• No animal hide: Absolutely no genuine leather is used in these models.
• High-quality alternatives: The products are made from premium fine synthetics (faux leather) or durable textile fabric.
• Noble feel: Our leather-free materials are equal to genuine leather in appearance and smooth tactile quality.
• Tested quality: All Friedrich23 products are developed according to strict German standards and undergo thorough quality inspection on-site.

Genuine leather is a noble, nature-focused material that retains its beauty for many years with proper care:

• Cleaning & care: For regular cleaning, a slightly damp, soft cloth is sufficient. To keep the leather supple and protect it from drying out, we recommend occasional use of a mild, transparent leather care product or leather balm.
• The ideal location: Our jewelry and watch boxes feel most at home in dry living spaces such as the bedroom, living room, dressing room, or hallway.
• What you should avoid: Humid rooms (such as the bathroom): The high humidity in the bathroom can damage both the leather and the interior lining and accelerate jewelry tarnishing. Direct, prolonged sunlight: Keep in mind when placing the box (e.g., on a windowsill) that constant UV light can fade or dry out the leather over time.

We transparently declare the upper material of each individual product in the respective descriptions and material properties on the product page.

• Leather-free alternatives: Simply look for the label "Synthetic leather / fine synthetics" or "Microfiber" in the material specifications.
• Genuine leather models: These are explicitly marked with the label "Genuine leather or leather".

Our service promise: If a product is ever missing material labeling or if it's unclear, please let us know directly! We will verify the information immediately and update the specification on the product page right away.

Friedrich23's travel jewelry and watch cases are specially designed to withstand the rigors of travel and provide maximum protection for your valuables in your suitcase:

• Shock-resistant protection & stable internal construction: The rigid outer shell and stable frame construction inside reliably prevent delicate watches or jewelry from being crushed or damaged by heavy suitcase contents.
• Secure closure: Strong zippers or robust snap buttons (often with variable closure levels for different fill heights) keep the case securely closed even during heavy vibrations.
• High flexibility through removable compartments: Thanks to modular, removable dividers, the interior space can be individually customized – from small earrings and chains to large statement jewelry pieces or watches, every item finds its perfect place.
• Compact design: They make optimal use of space in your suitcase or carry-on luggage without adding unnecessary volume.

Yes, our jewelry boxes significantly slow down the tarnishing (oxidation) of silver jewelry. See also our blog post

• Protection from moisture & light: Silver jewelry tarnishes mainly through reactions with sulfur compounds in the air, moisture, and light. The snugly fitting lid (especially on models without a glass window) keeps the jewelry inside dark and protected from air exposure.
• Gentle interior materials: The interior linings used are high-quality and carefully processed so they don't trigger chemical reactions with metals.
• Proper placement is essential: Don't place your jewelry box in the bathroom or in direct sunlight, as high humidity accelerates tarnishing (also see our FAQ article on caring for genuine leather boxes).
• Care tip: Since silver is a natural precious metal, slight darkening over very long periods can never be completely avoided. Occasional refreshing with a soft silver polishing cloth keeps your jewelry looking like new for years to come.

Yes, the jewelry boxes and cases from Friedrich23 are distinguished by particularly thoughtful and versatile interior layouts. Each piece of jewelry gets its optimal place:

• Rings & Earrings: Soft velvet ring bars provide secure hold. Additionally, many models feature removable earring and brooch bars as well as small compartments for larger earrings and small hoops.
• Necklaces & Bracelets: Integrated chain hooks prevent necklaces from tangling. Additional small compartments are available for delicate bracelets and fine chain bracelets.
• Bangles, Glasses & Statement Jewelry: Generously sized, deeper compartments such as in Aurora, Cordoba, Caiman, Copenhagen, Ascot provide ample space for large bangles, statement pieces, or sunglasses.
• Smartwatches with Charging Function: Selected models (Aurora, Cordoba) feature a special smartwatch compartment including cable pass-through. This way you can store your smartwatch safely in the jewelry box while charging it at the same time.

To prevent delicate necklaces from tangling, Friedrich23 jewelry boxes and travel cases offer thoughtfully designed sorting systems for every chain size:

• Integrated chain hooks with protective pouches (for example, in the Cordoba, Copenhagen, Milano, and Caiman collections): The jewelry box or case features special hooks where chains hang freely. The dangling ends or pendants are stored in protective pouches (pocket compartments) below. This prevents slipping and tangling—even during travel vibrations.
• Individual compartments for statement and chain necklaces: Many of our jewelry boxes, such as Aurora, have subdivisions with small individual compartments. This allows each chain to be stored separately without coming into contact with other jewelry pieces.

Yes, the watch boxes and watch rolls from Friedrich23 are specifically designed for large watch models and oversized cases.

• Standard models (e.g. Bond, Bond Cross Grain, Infinity, LeCroc, London, Cubano): Offer a pillow width from approximately 50 mm and are ideal for classic to large watches.
• Premium models (e.g. Dynasty, Carbon, Cubano XL): Are equipped with extra-wide watch pillows from 53 mm to 60 mm – perfect for XXL watches, Panerai models, and striking chronographs.
• Watch rolls: Feature generous pillow widths from 50 mm to 65 mm, so multiple large watches can be safely stored while traveling without scratching each other or colliding.

To optimally protect your watches and their straps, Friedrich23 uses a thoughtfully designed material and padding concept:

• Protection against scratches: All interior spaces, dividers, and cushions are lined with extremely soft, lint-free velour. This reliably prevents micro-scratches on the case, clasp, or strap.
• Flexible fit without rigid core: Our watch cushions have no hard plastic core. They are filled inside with high-quality, flexible foam. This allows the cushions to be easily compressed ("squeezed").
• Protection against stretching: Thanks to the flexible foam filling, both watches with small strap circumference (e.g., for women or short leather/steel straps) and watches with large strap circumference sit on the cushion without excessive tension. This prevents stretching or deformation of leather and steel straps.

Our top gift recommendations by budget:

• Best Value Tip (Budget-Friendly): The watch boxes from the Bond Cross Grain Series for 4-10 watches. It impresses with modern Saffiano embossing, excellent value for money, and accommodates up to 6 watches.
• Premium Tip (Exclusive): The Dynasty watch storage for 3-20 watches with additional storage compartment. An elegant highlight featuring extra-wide cushions for large watches and a practical compartment for cufflinks, straps, or jewelry.

What sets Friedrich23 watch storage apart for collectors:

• Flexible Support: Soft, adaptable ("squeezable") cushions accommodate watches with both small and large band circumferences effortlessly and without overstretching.
• Space for XXL Watches: Generous compartments provide ample room even for distinctive cases with 45 mm to over 50 mm diameter.
• Scratch Protection & Protective Walls: Padded dividers in the watch rolls and soft interior lining reliably prevent scratches on watch glass and case.
• Material & Design Variety: Available in noble genuine leather or high-quality vegan faux leather (fine synthetic) – optionally classic closed design, with glass lid/viewing window, or integrated utility compartment.
