How Rocksbox Works
Rocksbox is a jewelry rental membership service that costs $21 per month. Try 3 pieces of designer and exclusive jewelry at a time. Rent what you like, buy what you love, return the rest for more. Swap your box as often as you'd like! To get started, take a style survey and get jewelry curated based on your style preferences.
Rocksbox will ask you to select the types of jewelry you like or want to try, choosing by type of jewelry, metal type, and trends.
Next, you can browse thousands of exclusive and designer styles, and create a more personalized list of jewelry you'd love to try by adding to your wishlist. You’ll have the option to hand-select individual items, or allow your personal stylist to surprise you. Depending on how much you love your items, you can purchase them using your monthly $21 membership credit or send them back to try out other options.

How Rocksbox Compares to Other Jewelry Subscriptions
Rocksbox VS Bijoux Box: Bijoux Box is a monthly jewelry and accessory subscription that sends subscribers a three-piece jewelry collection, bonus accessory item, jewelry box, and jewelry travel bag. This subscription costs $49.99 and is not a jewelry rental service, rather it's a purchase to own. Most of the options are higher quality than Rocksbox, and as such, it costs over twice as much per month.
Rocksbox VS Fair Trade Earring of the Month: Fair Trade Earring of the Month offers a high quality fairly traded pair of earrings delivered every month in a unique reusable bag for $13. It’s not a rental service and offers an extremely affordable approach to purchasing new styles of earrings. While the earrings may not look as bright and shiny as some products sold by Rocksbox, the price is well-worth the purchase, especially since 100% of the proceeds from each box goes to the empowerment of impoverished women.
Rocksbox VS Penny + Grace: Penny + Grace offers a jewelry subscription box that costs $29.99 and includes a trio (3) of 18k jewelry tailored to your color/metal choice each month. Every delivery is guaranteed to contain a minimum value of $100, and everything is designed to be owned, not rented. Overall, Penny + Grace may be slightly more expensive, but all products are covered by the subscription fee, and tend to be higher quality overall.
