Security has a discreet way of making us feel luxurious—there’s just something about being ensconced in peace of mind. But that doesn’t mean the symbol of that assurance can’t benefit from a makeover. NYC-based Traum offers Fort Knox-levels of security in a safe attractive enough to leave out in the open. Their highest end Heirloom safe, which is strong enough to meet Swiss banks’ needs, has walls that are 31/2-inches thick, yet are harder to breach than 2 feet of conventional safe construction. The beautiful lacquered finish is just the start of the customizing that includes everything from interior lighting to drawer configuration. From $180,000; traumsafe.com
