What a engagement ring box has to do
The slot has to hold the shank and the lid has to clear the setting. Setting height is the measurement most briefs leave out.
The moment it is opened
It is opened once, in front of someone, and often on camera. That is a different brief from a counter box.
The mistake we correct most often
Briefs give the ring size and leave out the setting height. A slot cut to the shank alone means the lid closes on the stone. We work from the height of the setting, not the size of the finger.
Rigid board on a engagement ring box, specifically
A printed board box is the lightest way to make a proper ring box, and it takes full-colour print that no wrapped material does. It is the right answer for a brand that changes its packaging design often.
What varies between versions
A single slot or a slot with a hidden compartment for a second band; a lid that stands open at ninety degrees for a photograph or one that falls shut. Both decisions are made before the die is cut.
Why rigid board for this
Board wrapped in paper or textured stock. The lightest and most shippable of the constructions, and the one that gives the widest colour and texture range.
Putting your logo on rigid board
Board is the best surface of all for print. Foil, deboss, spot varnish and flat colour all work, and fine typography holds.
Cutting the interior in rigid board
A board box is built around its insert; the insert is usually a die-cut foam or board platform wrapped in the lining material.
Keep dry. Board recovers from a light knock better than lacquer, but a wet mark is permanent.
