We are excited to introduce three new ribbon colours to our collection - Watermelon, Golden Brown and Licorice. Watermelon is a new addition to our colour range, whereas Golden Brown and Licorice are supplied with our Copper and Bronze gift boxes.

Previously our customers could not buy the same ribbon as supplied with certain boxes separately. We therefore responded to the multiple requests from customer to stock certain ribbons separately, which allows them to mix and match colours across their packaging.


Watermelon

Taking colour inspiration from the playful and vivid 2019 Pantone colour of the year Living Coral, our new addition, “Watermelon” is already a hit with our customers. Living Coral, also known as Pantone 16-1546, is a warm, peachy orange with a life-affirming golden undertone. The colour evokes vitality and buoyancy; the marine invertebrate get its vibrant tone from the tiny algae living on its surface.


The ribbon works well when combined with our Black, White, Pale Blue, Silver, Navy Blue, Pewter and Bronzeslot gift boxes with changeable ribbon. With wedding season coming up, you can create the most colourful wedding, full of fun by using bright and punchy shades of red, orange and pink. We recommend the watermelon ribbon alongside our white or ivory boxes to really add some zest to your special day.


  • The nearest Pantone ink reference is PMS 1777C.
  • Order theWatermelon ribbon on our online store.

Golden Brown

The Golden Brown ribbon is the same colour ribbon as supplied with our copper gift boxes but also works well with white, navy blue, bronze and goldslot gift boxes with changeable ribbon. Brides all over are choosing a more regal look for their weddings and the “Champagne and Chocolate” colour scheme is more popular than ever.

If you’re looking to transform your ceremony into the most elegant day ever, we suggest the Golden Brown ribbon with our bronze or gold slot gift boxes, which are amazing for wedding favours or bridal party gifts.

If you’re looking for an earthy colour, with a hint of luxury, the Licorice ribbon will make a fabulous choice. It is ideal for artisan and barista tea and coffee gift hampers or confectionery and chocolate gifts.

For many brands, the idea of “luxury packaging” immediately brings to mind high costs, complex production and large minimum orders. In reality, premium packaging is rarely about how much you spend. It is about how intentional the experience feels. Customers notice the weight of the box, the precision of the fit, the quality of materials and the consistency of colour and detail. When these elements are handled well, packaging can feel luxurious without requiring a fully bespoke solution.
