Laser Cut Jewelry Box and Tray Files: 12 Free SVG and DXF Organizers
A laser cut jewelry box is an open plywood box or tray with compartments for rings, earrings, bracelets, a watch and sunglasses, assembled with tabs and slots. The 12 files below range from a 6-part, 340 × 170 mm catchall to a 13-part, 350 × 280 mm nine-grid box; each comes in SVG and DXF for 3, 4, 5 and 6 mm plywood and cuts in about 15–32 minutes on a 10 W diode (3 mm).
Earrings have a talent for getting lost. One stud on the bathroom shelf, the other in a coat pocket, a ring in the soap dish. A laser cut jewelry box or tray gives every small thing a fixed address, and the morning search turns into one look and one grab.
Below are 12 jewelry organizers from the DXF World library: open boxes with straight walls, sloped valet trays and stepped trays. Every file is a tab-and-slot design, every download has SVG and DXF for 3, 4, 5 and 6 mm plywood, and the full set of 20 lives in the jewelry organizers category.

Jewelry boxes with straight walls
Straight walls make a box that looks like furniture: it stands on a dresser, goes into a drawer and stacks well.
Compact 4-Section Jewelry BoxOuter size (W × D × H) 300 × 230 × 70 mm (11.81 × 9.06 × 2.76 in)Parts 8Est. time, 10 W diode (3 mm) 19 min 40 sEst. time, 40 W CO2 (3 mm) 8 min 12 sSVG · DXF →
Four equal quarters, two at the back and two at the front. The easiest box to start with: one quarter each for rings, earrings, bracelets and a watch.

A large center bay for sunglasses, a watch and bracelets, with two small sections on each side for earrings and rings. Big things in the middle, small things around them.
Jewelry Box, Wide Center + 3 Stacked SlotsOuter size (W × D × H) 420 × 190 × 70 mm (16.54 × 7.48 × 2.76 in)Parts 9Est. time, 10 W diode (3 mm) 22 min 51 sEst. time, 40 W CO2 (3 mm) 9 min 31 sSVG · DXF →
Three columns: an earring bay, a wide center bay and a right column split into three stacked slots for rings and bracelets. At 420 mm wide it suits a long dresser top.
Six-Compartment Jewelry BoxOuter size (W × D × H) 380 × 210 × 80 mm (14.96 × 8.27 × 3.15 in)Parts 10Est. time, 10 W diode (3 mm) 25 min 28 sEst. time, 40 W CO2 (3 mm) 10 min 37 sSVG · DXF →
Two rows of three equal compartments with straight 80 mm walls. A calm, symmetrical box that also works as a drawer insert.
Nine-Grid Jewelry BoxOuter size (W × D × H) 350 × 280 × 80 mm (13.78 × 11.02 × 3.15 in)Parts 13Est. time, 10 W diode (3 mm) 31 min 57 sEst. time, 40 W CO2 (3 mm) 13 min 19 sSVG · DXF →
Nine squares in a 3 × 3 grid, one type of jewelry per square. The biggest project here: 13 parts and a layout of about 1410 × 456 mm, so plan several runs on a desktop laser.
Pro tip: sand the inside edges of small compartments before you assemble the box. Once the dividers are in, you cannot reach the corners, and thin chains catch on any splinter.
Valet trays and ring trays
Valet trays have a sloped front, so everything is visible at a glance. They live by the door or on a nightstand, where watches and rings land at the end of the day.

Just six parts: a wide bay for a watch and sunglasses and a narrow side section for rings. Cuts in about a quarter of an hour on a diode laser.

A large bay for sunglasses and bracelets plus a block of six small cubbies in two rows of three. Good for a big ring and earring collection.
Display trays for earrings
These trays put jewelry on show, which also makes them nice for photos.
Jewelry Tray with Low Earring LedgeOuter size (W × D × H) 360 × 210 × 70 mm (14.17 × 8.27 × 2.76 in)Parts 7Est. time, 10 W diode (3 mm) 19 min 45 sEst. time, 40 W CO2 (3 mm) 8 min 14 sSVG · DXF →
Two deep back bays and a long, low front ledge for earrings; the front is only 35 mm high, so every pair is in view.

Three rows that step down to a 32 mm front: earrings in front, bracelets in the middle, a watch and sunglasses at the back.
Eight-Compartment Jewelry TrayOuter size (W × D × H) 400 × 210 × 70 mm (15.75 × 8.27 × 2.76 in)Parts 12Est. time, 10 W diode (3 mm) 27 min 19 sEst. time, 40 W CO2 (3 mm) 11 min 23 sSVG · DXF →
Eight compartments in two rows of four on a sloped tray, 400 mm wide. The most compartments among the trays.
Common mistake: leaving the bottom bare. Raw plywood is rough, and small rings slide into the corners of a cell. A piece of felt or thin cork glued to the bottom of each compartment makes the tray look finished and protects soft metals and stones.
Choosing thickness, wood and finish
| Choice | Option | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Thickness | 3 mm | Light, elegant dividers; fast on a diode |
| Thickness | 4–5 mm | Sturdier box for a dresser that gets bumped |
| Thickness | 6 mm | Chunky look; several passes on a diode |
| Wood | Birch plywood | Light colour, clean edges, takes stain well |
| Lining | Felt or cork, 1–2 mm | Soft bottom for rings and chains |
| Finish | Clear matte varnish or wax | Keeps the natural look, stops dust soaking in |
The slots in each version are drawn for its own thickness, so measure the sheet with calipers and download the version that matches. If you are not sure which wood to buy, read the best wood for laser cutting.
How to cut and assemble a jewelry box
- Measure your plywood and pick the matching version of the file.
- Cut a test tab and slot from scrap; adjust for kerf if the fit is off.
- Cut all parts, splitting the layout into runs that fit your laser bed.
- Sand the inside edges of the small parts.
- Fit the dividers into the base, then the back, sides and front.
- Glue the outer corners if the box will travel.
- Varnish or wax, then line the bottoms with felt.
Want a lid? These files are open boxes and trays. The box generator draws a closed finger joint box with a lid in any size, and the finger joint box guide explains how. For cosmetics, see the makeup organizers.
Next step: count your rings and pairs of earrings, pick a box with enough small cells, and cut the test joint. Tonight the stud from the coat pocket gets a home.
Questions and answers
What thickness of plywood is best for a jewelry box?
3 mm plywood gives light, elegant dividers and cuts fast on a diode laser. 4–5 mm makes a sturdier box. Use the file version that matches your measured sheet.
Do these jewelry box files have a lid?
No, they are open boxes and trays with dividers. For a lidded box, use a finger joint box generator and set the inside size you need.
How long does it take to laser cut a jewelry tray?
In 3 mm plywood the files here take about 15–32 minutes on a 10 W diode and roughly 6–13 minutes on a 40 W CO2, plus sanding and assembly.
How do I line a laser cut jewelry box?
Cut felt or thin cork to the size of each compartment, a millimetre smaller on every side, and glue it to the bottom with a thin layer of craft glue or double-sided tape.
What size jewelry tray fits on a nightstand?
A tray of about 340–380 × 170–190 mm fits most nightstands and leaves room for a lamp. Measure your free surface and leave a few centimetres around the tray.
