The Longstem Jewelry Organizer was invented in 2006 by Alison Albanese, a private investigator by training, who had long searched for a way to store and organize a lifetime of collected jewelry. After experimenting with jewelry boxes, pouches and other storage devices, she began experimenting with wire to devise an organizer that would make accessorizing easy and fun.

An idea took hold that would literally accomodate boxes full of jewelry and could hang on a closet door or wall, allowing for an entire collection to be viewed in one glance.

There are plans in the future to expand to a full line of organizers to meet the needs of any situation.
