coffret

Ornate jewelry box

A coffret is a small decorative box or chest, typically ornate and used for storing jewelry, valuables, or keepsakes.

The word retains a French flavor and suggests something more elegant than an ordinary box: an antique coffret lined with velvet.

In cosmetics, coffret often names a gift set of beauty products in special packaging.
