    I'd suggest you go around to retailers and look at the different
    types in action. A bold look is attractive when you're looking at an
    empty case, but remember your case has a job to do. 

    Ideally what you need is a color that does not detract from your
    goods. A big bright shiny gold or silver border around your goods
    will, imho, just fight for attention. Black tends to disappear
    somewhat. If you decide on the black, ask your case supplier if they
    use powder coating. Its pretty durable. My cases are now eight years
    old and don't show much wear at all and they have been moved over two
    thousand miles. 

    As to interior, white has disadvantages you should consider. 1) its
    been done too much 2) even though leatherette is easier to clean
    than suede it still looks dirty after a few months. 3) white is a
    very stark background for jewelery, something warmer might be more
    visually appealing
