Give precious mementos a dedicated, beautifully crafted home with this bespoke wooden keepsake box. Made to order in our Buckinghamshire workshop, each box is built from solid birch ply and finished inside and out with a rich, whiskey-hued hard wax oil. This hand-applied finish nourishes the wood and draws out the natural depth, knotting, and grain of the timber.
The focal point of the lid is a rectangular copper plaque, individually stamped with your custom text letter by letter. Using traditional metal punches rather than laser engraving gives the metal a genuine, hand-crafted feel where every character carries its own subtle charm.
It makes an unforgettable gift for marking life's major milestones:
-
7th Wedding Anniversaries: Copper is the traditional gift for seven years together, making this a meaningful choice for couples.
-
Weddings & Engagements: Ideal for storing order of service cards, pressed flowers, reception favours, and photos.
-
New Baby & Christenings: A safe haven for hospital tags, first booties, lockets of hair, and scan pictures.
-
Milestone Birthdays: Fill with letters, event tickets, and sentimental trinkets to look back on for years to come.
Your message will be hand-stamped directly into the rectangular copper plaque across up to 3 lines (maximum 26 characters per line, including spaces).
-
Allowed characters: Letters (A-Z in uppercase), numbers (0-9), and standard punctuation (e.g. full stops, commas, hyphens, ampersands).
-
Please note: We are unable to stamp special symbols, emojis, or accents.
Optional Felt Lining: Make opening the lid even more luxurious by adding a hand-fitted felt lining to the interior base. Choose from nine rich shades:
-
Cherry Red, Stone, Mustard, Black, Purple, Green, Silver, Burgundy, or Ivory.
