The Jewel Box is an Art Deco display greenhouse in Forest Park, St. Louis, Missouri, also known as the St. Louis Floral Conservatory. Designed by William C. E. Becker and completed in 1936 with Public Works Administration support, it replaced earlier seasonal greenhouse displays and became a permanent floral conservatory. Its stepped glass form and surrounding reflecting pools make it one of the park's most distinctive structures. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000, it was restored in 2002 and remains in use as a public conservatory and event space.
