What a pair of cufflinks box has to do
Two level seats close enough to read as a pair, each with a recess for the fitting behind the face.
The moment it is opened
Menswear packaging tends to plates and blind debossing rather than bright foil, and the pair has to look like a pair.
The mistake we correct most often
Seats cut at different depths. A pair that does not sit level reads as two single cufflinks rather than as a pair.
Lacquered wood on a pair of cufflinks box, specifically
A lacquered cufflink box with two recessed seats is a dresser object rather than a shop box. It is bought to be kept out, so the finish of the shell matters more than the interior.
What varies between versions
Two recessed seats or a single pad with the pair laid together. Recessed seats hold them level; the pad suits fittings that vary.
Why lacquered wood for this
A wood carcass built up in layers of lacquer and polished back to a piano finish. This is the heaviest and most formal thing we make.
Putting your logo on lacquered wood
Lacquer is engraved, or carries an inlaid metal plate. Foil does not bond reliably to a polished lacquer surface.
Cutting the interior in lacquered wood
The interior is a separate lined tray dropped into the carcass, so the lining material is chosen independently of the shell.
Dust with a dry microfibre cloth. Polish only with a product made for lacquer.
