Products
Where are your products made?
Our products are developed in New York State and at our corporate office in Canada. Our team in our overseas office works with our preapproved suppliers to manufacture our Mele & Co. jewelry boxes, watch boxes, charging stations, valets, and armoires. Our entire team works hard to accomplish our goal to ensure our products help keep our customers organized and happy.
What is the best way to clean and care for my new Mele & Co.?
The best way to care for your new Mele & Co. is with a lot of love. On a more serious note, keeping your Mele & Co. in a clean, temperature controlled room will keep it looking good as new. Cleaning your new Mele & Co. is simple! Once you’ve set it up in the best spot, wipe clean with a soft dry cloth. Even the mirrors and see-through tops are best cleaned this way. If a stain appears on one of the interior materials, carefully try to remove it by using a slightly damp cloth with a bit of sensitive dish soap. Lightly blot unclean areas to lift dirt. Let the area dry fully afterwards before placing items on the damp area. It is always best to store your Mele & Co. in a room that is not damp.
I know there are a lot of testing requirements on consumer goods now, do you comply?
We do! We adhere to all federally mandated U.S. quality assurance and consumer safety guidelines. At times, we even test to higher standards than required.
What are your jewelry boxes made from?
Love and joy! In all seriousness, and although we do put a lot of love and joy into our products, we also use other materials. Our wood items are composite wood, allowing them to be affordable for our customers. Our children’s boxes, depending on the item, are composite wood, plastic and/or wrapped hard board. Our travel & fashion jewelry and watch organizers are either vegan leather or fabric wrapped hard board. Additional information may be found on an item’s specific product page under product details.
What songs do your musical jewelry boxes play?
Each jewelry box with music has the song indicated on its product page. Our music selections sometimes change but our current tunes are ‘Magic Flute,’ ‘Beautiful Dreamer,’ ‘Swan Lake,’ ‘Waltz of the Flowers,’ ‘You Are My Sunshine,’ ‘Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy,’ and ‘Fur Elise.’
The music winders are found on the back of the jewelry box. Please do not over-wind them – as that can cause breakage.
Before purchasing a musical jewelry box, can I hear the song played?
Yes! To help you pick one with a song you like, we include a short clip of each song on the product page for each musical item. Just click it and listen. Feel free to sing along too – we do! If you send us a music clip of you singing, we might even post it on our Facebook page!
We hope our FAQ section answered all your questions, but if it didn’t.....just let us know!
