Musical Jewelry Boxes

The 1997 smash hit movie Titanic told the fictional love story of two people on board the Titanic. While the ship’s tragic fate was all too real, Rose and Jack never existed, and neither did Rose’s incredible necklace – the Heart of the Ocean: a blue diamond supposedly once owned by Louis XVI, cut into a heart shape after the French Revolution.
The actual necklace plays a prominently role in the story, and captivated the audience with its imaginative beauty. So much so, in fact, that jewelers Asprey & Garrard were commissioned to bring the stunning jewels to life. The real necklace is a platinum-set, 171-carat heart-shaped sapphire. It’s surrounded by 103 diamonds and valued at an impressive $20 million.
Celine Dion, the singer of the film’s famous ballad, “My Heart Will Go On,” wore it to the 1998 Academy Awards. Though the Heart of the Ocean necklace was inspired by a fictional tale, its popularity has put it among some of the most noteworthy and opulent jewels in recent memory. ChasingTreasure offers musical jewelry boxes that play “My Heart Will Go On” so you can be reminded of the romance every time you reach for your own favorites jewelry.

Romantic Gift Idea - Lara's Theme Musical Jewelry Box

What better song than Lara's Theme for a keepsake musical jewelry box.

Originally written in 1965 for the film Dr. Zhivago, it later became the basis for the song Somewhere My Love (recorded in 1966).

When the lid of this beautiful wooden musical jewelry box is lifted, the romantic music plays.


Music by Maurice Jerre, Song Lyrics by Paul Francis Webster

Somewhere, my love, there will be songs to sing

Although the snow covers the hopes of Spring

Somewhere a hill blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams, all that your heart can hold
Someday we'll meet again, my love
Someday whenever the Spring breaks through
You'll come to me out of the long-ago
Warm as the wind, soft as the kiss of snow
Till then, my sweet, think of me now and then
Godspeed, my love, till you are mine again
Someday we'll meet again, my love
I said "someday whenever that Spring breaks through"
You'll come to me out of the long-ago
Warm as the wind, and as soft as the kiss of snow
Till then, my sweet, think of me now and then
Godspeed, my love, till you are mine again!
