Really Small Wooden Boxes

Engraving - Handcarved
The addition of lettering, where practical, adds to the uniqueness of a box. We can offer handcarved lettering for that traditional look. Handcarved lettering adds approx' £5 per letter to the box price.
Please note: this box is shown in yew wood - we no longer use yew wood. Other woods available.
Engraving - Laser
Laser engraving for where that extra detail is required. From £30 per engraved surface; more detail here.
So there's no excuse for not having that poem to your loved one engraved on that gift or a corporate logo on that presentation box.

Are we talking the same about measurements?
Please refer to the front as frontage or width and the front-to-back as that or the depth. The height is the height. If necessary please specify if your dimensions are internal or external; by default we will assume dimensions are external.
Oak Presentation Boxes
Small presentation boxes in oak with an unlined solid oak base; wood type as required. Lid can be made flush with the front and side walls or given a small overlap as required. Shown with small brass barrel hinges and no lid catch; a pair of tiny magnets set into the box rim and lid make a useful small catch. Sized to suit.
Meranti Presentation Wooden Boxes
Small handmade wooden boxes in 12mm thick red meranti hardwood designed as either a stand-alone work of art or as a bespoke container. Laser engrave the lid with a corporate logo or personal poem for a unique product/gift box. Shown with barrel-hinged lid and internal base lined with black cotton velvet. Options include patterned inlay and decorative catch.
Available in other woods: prices vary according to wood and size.
Larger Presentation Boxes
A significantly more substantial custom presentation box than those shown above. Constructed from 20mm thick red meranti hardwood with larger barrel hinges that are hidden when the lid is closed. Images show an internal clasp that is again hidden with the lid closed; tiny but powerful magnets set into the box rim and lid are a more robust form of lid catch. Options include patterned inlay and an external decorative catch.
Or, how about a matching pair. His and Hers maybe?
Maybe an ideal box for those smaller memories.
Available in oak if a lighter colour is required; other woods as required.
More Larger Presentation Boxes
Same design, but higher, as the box above and with sharper (less rounded) edges. A robust, and strong, pair of magnets replaces the brass-effect clasp. Shown with lid and walls crafted from 20mm thick solid oak; internal base lined with black velvet. The corner mitre joints have hidden internal strengthening making for a sturdy yet fine box. An heirloom box maybe?
Larger Presentation Box - Variants
Many variants of the above design are of course possible to suit the required functionality - here the lid includes part of the side walls. Shown with walls crafted from circa 20mm thick solid oak. Underside of lid and internal base lined with black cotton velvet. Shown with brass barrel hinges that are not visible with the lid closed. Options include, decorative brass-effect catches or magnet catches (shown). A flexible design. (CDs not included)
Slightly Different Larger Presentation Boxes
A variation of the presentation style box above where the box lid and base are also constructed from solid polished wood. The lid, which is recessed rather than flat as above, hinges on 2 brass barrel hinges that are hidden with the lid closed. If required, a pair of small magnets set into the box rim and lid can act as a catch.
Personalize the box with laser engraving - text and/or logo?

Decorative Wooden Pencil Cases
Simple yet elegant decorative small wooden boxes in the style of the traditional pencil case. But not just for pencils; maybe an ideal place to store those smaller personal treasures. A small keepsake box maybe?
Larger Wooden Pencil Case Box
Larger version of the pencil case shown in oak with 'comb' corner joints. An alternative design - well suited to comb joints - would be to use contrasting colour woods for the side and end walls. The internal base could be lined with black cotton velvet, real leather or polished solid wood. Custom pencil cases need not be plain - let your imagination free.
Shown in oak hardwood; other woods available. Prices vary according to wood and size.

Hinges
