Dusky Blue Large Cube SoftBox® Luxury Gift Carton Sample

Order a sample of our Dusky Blue Large Cube SoftBox® folding gift carton with changeable ribbon to check the generous capacity, colour, board quality and product fit before committing to a bulk order.

This soft, muted blue gift carton combines a contemporary matt finish with a spacious cube format, making it particularly attractive for baby gifting, weddings, stationery, ceramics, home fragrance, hospitality gifts and premium retail collections. The understated dusky blue shade provides a sophisticated alternative to traditional pale blue packaging without feeling overly pastel.

Manufactured from substantial 540gsm dye-through kraft board, the Large Cube SoftBox® offers a lightweight alternative to traditional rigid paper-over-board gift boxes, with an interlocking slot-lock base, overlapping lid and removable ribbon.

Please note: The sample price includes delivery. If you are ordering three or more samples, contact us for a delivery discount code.

Why Order a Large Cube Sample?

  • Check the spacious cube capacity with your products before ordering bulk quantities.
  • Assess the quality and strength of the substantial 540gsm board.
  • See the Dusky Blue colour accurately alongside your products and branding.
  • Test tissue paper, ribbon combinations and different product arrangements.
  • Assess suitability for individual products or curated multi-item gift sets.
  • Confirm dimensions before developing bespoke inserts, sleeves or other closely fitted accessories.

Elegant Packaging for Baby, Wedding & Lifestyle Gifts

The muted blue colour and generous cube proportions make this an adaptable packaging choice for both celebratory gifting and contemporary premium products, including:

  • New baby gifts, clothing and keepsake collections.
  • Wedding, bridesmaid and special occasion gifts.
  • Luxury stationery and paper goods.
  • Artisan ceramics, mugs and decorative homeware.
  • Candles, diffusers and home fragrance collections.
  • Skincare, bath and wellness gift sets.
  • Confectionery, speciality foods and afternoon tea gifts.
  • Hotel, hospitality, corporate and e-commerce gifting.

Dusky Blue Dye-Through Matt Finish

The SoftBox® is manufactured from 540gsm dye-through kraft board, approximately 0.66mm / 660 micron thick. The dusky blue colour runs through the board itself rather than being created with a separate decorative paper covering.

With no lamination, the carton retains a clean matt appearance with a soft, contemporary character. The muted pale blue tone works beautifully with white, ivory, navy, grey and neutral accessories, while contrasting ribbons can create a stronger branded or seasonal presentation.

The nearest Pantone colour reference is PMS 7454U.

Interlocking Slot-Lock Base

The Large Cube SoftBox® features a manually assembled interlocking slot-lock base. The base panels fold and engage with one another to create a secure foundation once the carton has been erected.

Unlike an automatic crash-lock carton, the base is not pre-glued or designed to automatically move into position when the carton is opened. This folding construction allows the SoftBox® to be supplied flat for efficient storage before use.

The overlapping top lid incorporates three narrow slots for the decorative ribbon closure.

Changeable French Blue Grosgrain Ribbon

Each Dusky Blue Large Cube is supplied with a 70cm x 2.5cm Pale Blue (French Blue) polyester grosgrain ribbon. The ribbon threads through the lid slots but is not permanently attached, allowing it to be easily removed and replaced.

This gives you the flexibility to adapt the carton for different products, brand palettes, weddings, events or seasonal collections without changing the box itself.

Useful Branding Information for Adding Your Logo to Stock Gift Boxes

  • DO NOT order boxes online by adding them to your basket and paying if you want a custom printed logo. Online orders are for plain, unbranded stock boxes only.
  • Visit our Printing Page for example print images and detailed information on the various print techniques available.
  • Complete the simple on-line print estimate for a quick price guide. Follow the easy steps to submit your details and progress an order.
  • 24 boxes per size is the minimum order for printing. Orders of 144 boxes or more (boxes are packed in 12s) are the most economical due to fixed origination costs, regardless of quantity.
  • Printing is offered on all gift boxes available from stock. Mailing cartons cannot be printed.
  • Allow approximately 1–3 weeks for custom printing from receipt of usable artwork and payment to delivery of printed boxes.
