Custom Pillow Boxes in Birmingham

Birmingham has a long jewelry-making tradition, and a good share of our enquiries from the city are from makers and small manufacturers who need presentation packaging that does not cost more than the margin on the piece.

A rigid hinged box is often more than the product needs at this end of the market. A pillow box with a properly designed insert presents a piece just as well for a fraction of the cost, and folds flat for storage in a workshop where space is at a premium.

The insert is what makes it presentation packaging

A piece loose in a box is stored, not presented. What turns a plain pack into something considered is the card the piece is fixed to — slotted, notched or elasticated so the item lifts into view when the tuck opens.

It also removes the most common complaint in this trade: a chain that arrives knotted because it moved in transit. The insert costs a small fraction of the box.

Practical points for makers

  • A dyed-through board, so the crease does not show white
  • A box sized tightly, so the piece does not look lost in it
  • Flat-pack storage, because workshop space is limited
  • Small runs quoted honestly, with the fixed costs shown
  • A stored die, so the second order costs less than the first

Supplying Birmingham: common questions

Is a pillow box good enough for fine jewelry?

For a large part of the market, yes — with a dyed-through board and a proper insert it presents a piece well. At the very top of the market a rigid box is still expected, and we will say so rather than oversell.

Will a chain arrive tangled?

Not if it is fixed to a notched insert card. Movement in transit is what causes tangling, and an insert removes it.

Why do my black boxes show white at the folds?

They are printed black over white board, and creasing breaks the ink film. A dyed-through board stays black at every cut.

Can I order a small batch?

Yes. We will show you where the fixed costs sit so you can decide what to simplify, and we store the die so reorders cost less.

Do you have a Birmingham workshop?

No. We supply Birmingham makers and ship to Birmingham addresses; we do not operate premises in the city.
