Display cases, from ruby inlaid caskets for jewelry to fur lined boxes for coins, have been used since ancient times to exhibit a variety of collectibles. In earlier times, luxurious, hand crafted display cases were used only by the nobility and aristocrats. Now, display cases can be seen in almost all homes, schools, and establishments around the world.

Display cases are used to store all kinds of collectibles, from plastic action figures to Swarovsky crystals. They are also very popular gift items. There is a wide variety of display cases to choose from.

Depending on their usage, price and surroundings, display cases come in a variety of shapes, sizes, materials and models. Some factors that must be kept in mind while opting for a particular display case are the purpose for buying the case, environment, and price. That is, the use for display case (work stations or museum exhibit, for example), the place where the display case will be kept (home or office), and the price. The display case must complement the collectible and show it off to an advantage, but most importantly, it must protect the collectible from dust, scratching, breaking, tearing, soaking and other kinds of damage.

Display cases are available in four materials, including glass, acrylic, wood, and metal. They are available in sizes ranging from 2 inch display boxes for thimbles to wall-to-wall cabinets for books, trophies, and shot glasses. Prices vary from modestly priced acrylic holders and racks to the handmade, customized models meant for high end users. For example, a website like DisplayCaseArt.com ships acrylic display cases for pens, knives, and lighters, while Display-cases.org advertises custom made handmade cases with a 24 carat silver nickel finish.

Display cases not only enhance the value and appearance of the collectible displayed, they add to the décor of their surroundings and reflect the taste of the user.
