Let’s approach the answer to that question in two ways. First, we will offer some ways to find a high priced jewelry armoire for a cheap price. Next, we will actually detail some cheap jewelry armoires under $200 that meet our quality standards – cheap jewelry armoires that are not super expensive yet are nice enough to certainly put a smile on your wife’s face and probably a nice kiss on yours right after she sees it.

Part I:
Where To Go To Save Money
Buying Your Jewelry Armoire

There are a few trusted sources for saving money on armoire furniture and other antique style jewelry chests. Don’t ever lose your common sense though when tracking down an item using these methods – there are unscrupulous sellers out there who will rip you off if you let them. For the most part though of course will find good honest people who will be happy to sell you a cheap jewelry armoire.

Who are these people and where these sellers?

1. Look at your local Craigslist.

Craigslist is the most wide reaching – and entirely free – classified ads site in the world. Because it costs no money to either place an advertisement to sell an item, nor does it cost any money to respond to such advertisements, there are no hidden fees or extra built in costs included in the price. It also means that most of the sellers are people just like you and me. Looking at your cities Craiglist site (and most every city has one) is a great way to find someone who has a good jewelry armoire for sale that they will let go for a respectable yet cheap price. This is one of the easiest ways to save money on an awesome armoire.

2. Visit your local antique furniture stores.

Buying from an antique furniture dealer can go either way when it comes to saving money. By virtue of the fact that an item is an antique, the price goes up. However, antique dealers often have a huge inventory of all types of armoire furniture – be it antique wardrobe closets, a new wardrobe armoire, or a plethora of jewelry armoires. This means you may be able to leverage your buying power with them in your favor. This is a method that, in order to save you money, you need to be able to wheel and deal and haggle over that price. Don’t be scared to make an offer! You might just walk out with a brilliant antique jewelry armoire at a respectable price.

3. Look online for a bargain price.

Buying a jewelry armoire online is the most convenient of these three methods. However, that convenience “pays off” in the sense that you’ll probably not save as much money as you would on a cheap jewelry armoire had you taken the time and effort to buy through Craigslist or through placing an offer at an antique shop. But no matter – you can definitely save money buying an armore online. In fact, we will now get to part two of this article and look at some specific jewelry armoires you can buy online for under $200. Sound good?

Part II:
Three Nice Jewelry
Armoires Under $200

Short of haggling over the price of an armoire with a Craiglist seller or an antique store in your town, you can simply buy a armoire for jewelry that right off the bat costs under $200. Let’s now take a look at 3 nice jewelry armoires you can buy online at a good price – yet still get a good armoire for storing those lovely rings, necklaces, and bracelets that you’ve given your wife over the years!

The Black and Gold Jewelry Armoire
From the Powell Company

This solid wood, 35 pound jewelry armoire from Powell stands 37 inches tall, 13 inches wide, and 10 inches deep. It’s got 7 drawers for holding jewelry – and both the top of the armoire and the sides open up to reveal additional room for more! The total cost of such an armoire? Only $120.

Did we mention that the top opens up into a mirror, too? Very nice! Take a look:

Cappucino Jewelry Armoire
from Amazon

This striking jewelry armoire is one of my favorites! For only – again – just $120, you get a jewelry armoire that is simply gorgeous that your wife or daughter is going to love using to hold her jewelry collection. This 32 inch tall modern style jewelry armoire features a cappucino finish and more than enough room to store lots of jewelry. You’ll find 5 felt lined storage drawers offer comfortable space for those rings and earrings, whereas the sides open up for hanging jewelry, and top opens up to reveal a cute little mirror for the owner to try on all those items in style.

Wall Hanging Black Jewelry Armoire
from Amazon

Here we have something a bit different than the other armoires featured above: a black jewelry armoire that actually hangs from the wall. As you can see the picture, it creates a very elegant look for the jewelry armoire to be designed in such a way that it attaches to the wall, providing both space for her jewelry collection without really taking up any space in the bedroom! For that matter, you could even install this armoire in the closet or bathroom if you wanted.

Just about every area here that could possibly open into a storage spot or drawer does – there’s plenty of room here for everything!

Another perk? It’s shipped fully assembled. Total cost? $200.

Final Notes

Buying a cheap jewelry armoire may take a bit of extra effort than simply throwing out the big bucks to get a $500 one. With a little patience and determination though, it’s definitely possible to spend much less than that and still get an item that everyone will be happy about. For all the methods described above, I think most people will get their moneys worth either buying the Cappucino Jewelry Armoire, straight off the bat brand new for only $120, OR going the route of finding a great deal from Craigslist or your local antique furniture dealer.

Best of luck! Now go buy something that will make your wife proud to store her jewelry in, OK?
