Box style
Lid & Base Boxes
A classic two-piece box with a slow, luxurious reveal.
A separate lid lifts off a matching base, the classic telescoping construction. The lid can cover the full depth of the base, or stop part way to show a band of the base in a contrasting colour. It is our widest size range, from small accessory boxes to large-format presentation boxes.

Questions
What is the difference between full-depth and partial-depth lids?
A full-depth lid covers the whole base. A partial-depth lid stops part way, so a band of the base shows. That band can be a contrasting colour.
How large can you make a lid & base box?
Up to 29" on the longest side. Large boxes are quoted per project, since board and shipping change with size.
What is the minimum order?
50 units per design. Larger programs are quoted per project.
How long does it take?
About 1 week for sampling, then 3 to 5 weeks of production for runs under 500 units. Larger runs, and orders we pack and ship for you, are scheduled with you at the start. Rush timelines can be accommodated.
