Lid and Base Boxes
Two-piece rigid gift boxes with separate lid and base. Premium feel for jewelry, cosmetics, and luxury gifts.
What Are Lid and Base Boxes?
A lid and base box (also known as a lift-off or two-piece box) is the most classic rigid packaging format — a separate lid sits atop a base tray, creating a clean, substantial presentation. The thumb notch on the front edge allows easy opening, while the rigid greyboard construction (1.5–3mm) provides superior protection for fragile contents. Lid and base boxes are the industry standard for jewelry, watches, chocolates, and corporate gifts where structural integrity and a confident “lift-off” reveal are essential.
