I bought another model by the same company as a gift and both of us were very pleased so I got this one for myself and it is perfect.  Very well constructed, seeing through the top is a great idea, and beautiful enough to sit out on the top of my dresser.  If I need another jewelry box anytime, this is the company I will order from...just a great product!  I think it would also be a great choice for a man with cuff links etc. Not a gender specific jewelry box.
