This is a case of "lower your expectations". Compared to other products of this nature, this is an excellent product. I felt the item description was untrue to its nature since it does not appear to be made from real leather - more like a plastic that is trying to look like leather. The construction is good and, from afar, it looks decent. I remain undecided as to whether the jewelry will make the case look expensive - or whether the case will make the jewelry look cheap...
