Holding a chain still
| Coiled on a card with slits | The chain wound in a circle and tucked at two points; the postal standard |
|---|---|
| Laid flat in a channel | A die-cut channel in a foam or board insert; the rigid-box presentation |
| Clasped around a card | The anklet fastened around a printed card the way it is worn; shows the length |
| On a velvet pad with a hook | A small hook holds the clasp; the chain hangs; boutique display |
Box sizes for a flat product
An anklet is flat, so the box is: 80–100 mm square or 70 × 110 mm, and 15–20 mm deep at most. A deeper box makes a fine chain look like an afterthought. Rigid boxes are built on 1.2–1.5 mm grayboard; cartons on 18pt; a card in a sleeve is the slimmest and goes through a letterbox.
Sleeves, bands and the label
Our earring boxes in the same small formats are the matching case for a set.
- A printed sleeve over a plain rigid box — one box, many designs, the sleeve carries the name.
- A belly band with the brand and the metal — sterling, gold-filled, plated.
- A small card inside with the length, the clasp type and the care note.
Finish on a small flat lid
The lid is the whole box. A single-color wrap — a soft-touch, a linen, a kraft — with a foil or blind-debossed mark, and a colored liner inside. Full color is used for a younger brand with a pattern; the box is small enough that a pattern reads as a texture. Foil and deboss dies are kept across the range.
Sterling silver tarnishes in some board and adhesives. Ask for a tarnish-safe liner or an anti-tarnish strip if the anklet is silver and stocked for months.
Online jewellers and the postal box
Most anklets are posted. A rigid box in a padded mailer or a card-and-sleeve in a letterbox envelope are the two routes, and a jeweller usually runs both — the box for gifts and the card for everyday orders — from one print system.

On every job
- Print process
- The wrap is printed offset as a flat sheet and applied to the board, so the print quality is that of a sheet rather than a box.
- Color
- CMYK on the wrap with spot colors for a brand match. A textured or soft-touch wrap mutes a solid color slightly.
- Tolerance
- Board cut plus or minus 0.5 mm. Lid fit is set on a sample and held on the run, with an allowance for the delivery climate.
- Tooling
- No cutting die on the box itself. The tooling is the wrap print and any foil or emboss die, made once and kept.
- Food contact
- A food-grade liner or an inner tray where a rigid box holds unwrapped food.
- Sustainability
- Board and paper recycle together. Magnets, ribbon and foam come out first, and the spec says which the box has.
- Artwork
- Vector PDF or AI, 3 mm bleed, 4 mm safe area, fonts outlined. We check every file and send a proof before press.
- Dieline
- Supplied free with the quote, before you commit. Yours whether or not you order.
- Sample
- A plain unprinted sample at the finished size on request, for fit and construction.
- Reorders
- Skip the tooling and go straight to press at a lower unit price.
- Lead time
- Quoted with the price against your fill date rather than promised before we have seen the spec.
- Markets
- United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia — priced in the delivery currency, freight included.
Boards and films we build anklet boxes on
A rigid box is two materials: the grayboard that holds the shape and the paper wrapped around it. The board decides the feel; the wrap decides everything a customer sees and touches.
Grayboard 1.2–1.5 mm
The light rigid box: jewelry, small cases, card boxes. Heavy in the hand for its size without thick walls on a small cavity.
1.2–1.5 mmGrayboard 2–3 mm
The full rigid box. Resists crushing, bends poorly — thickness is chosen from box size so a wide lid does not sag.
2–3 mmArt paper wrap
Printed coated paper, matte or gloss laminated. Full color, photographs, any design. The most flexible wrap and the least tactile.
128–157gsmSoft-touch wrap
A velvet-feel laminate over printed paper. Reads expensive, shows fingerprints on white, and scuffs at the corners before anywhere else.
128–157gsm laminatedLinen and textured wrap
Texture woven into the paper, so it cannot scuff off. Takes foil and deboss beautifully; breaks up a solid print.
120–140gsmLeather-grain and specialty
Embossed grain papers, metallics and colored stocks. One color and a foil mark, not a photograph.
120–160gsmFlocked and velvet liners
A short-fiber or woven pile for the interior and the insert. Holds a product without marking it and sets the color the piece is seen against.
Applied to board or foamMagnets and hardware
Neodymium magnets under the wrap, ribbon pulls, and hinges built from the wrap itself. Each is a line on the quote.
Per closureNot sure which? Say what goes in it and where it is sold — the material follows from that. Our notes on recycled, recyclable and compostable cover which claims each stock can honestly carry.
- 01
Send what you have
A dimension, a photograph beside a ruler, or the product itself. No technical drawing needed — that part is ours.
- 02
We quote and draw
A price, a dieline and a date come back together. If a different build would suit the product better, that is in the reply too.
- 03
Approve the dieline
The flat drawing is yours to check: which panel is the front, where the folds fall, how deep the cavity really is.
- 04
Artwork on the dieline
You place your design on the flat we sent, or we place it for you, and you see a proof before anything goes to press.
- 05
A sample if you want one
A plain unprinted sample at the finished size shows fit and construction — the things a drawing cannot.
- 06
Cut, printed, shipped
The die is cut once and kept, so every reorder skips the tooling and goes straight to press at a lower unit price.
Format
Vector PDF or AI where possible. Raster artwork at 300dpi at final size, in CMYK.
Bleed
3 mm past every trim line, so a fraction of drift on the cutter never leaves a white edge.
Safe area
Keep type and anything important 4 mm inside the cut and away from every fold.
Color
Convert to CMYK before sending. Uncoated stock prints lighter; a spot color is the only exact match.
Fonts
Outline them or supply the files. A missing font substitutes silently and the proof will not match.
Barcodes
On a light, matte, unvarnished patch with the quiet zone clear — a code on gloss fails the scanner.
Not set up that way? Send it anyway — fixing a file is a short conversation, and we check every one before press. Our guide to preparing print files covers each point.
On a rigid box the wrap is the finish, and the corners are where it is judged.
Soft-touch wrap
Velvet in the hand. The category default, and it scuffs at the corners first.
Linen and laid
Texture woven into the paper; hides marks and cannot rub off.
Hot foil
Stamped into the wrap. Small block, cheap die, large effect on a lid.
Blind deboss
Shape with no ink. On a textured wrap it is the quietest premium mark there is.
Spot UV on matte
A gloss shape on a matte field; a pattern that only shows at an angle.
Colored liner
A wrap on the inside face, seen for a second as the lid lifts. The cheapest thing that changes an opening.
Leather-grain
Embossed grain paper. One color and a foil mark, never a photograph.
Ribbon and hardware
A pull under the product, magnets under the wrap, a hinge built from the paper.
Not sure which suits the shelf it sells from? Say where the product is sold and we suggest one — our notes on specialty finishes show them on real boxes.
Sizing a rigid box, where the wrap is part of the wall: anklet boxes
A rigid box is built up rather than folded, so the internal size is set first and the board and wrap are added outside it. The lid is then made to fit the base, and that fit is the thing people judge.
- Internal dimensions
- The product plus its insert, at the widest point. Everything else is built outward from this number.
- Wall build-up
- Each wall is the grayboard plus the wrap on both faces — roughly 2.5 mm on a 2 mm board. A small box gains noticeably in outside size.
- Lid clearance
- A few tenths of a millimeter. Set on a plain sample: a slow, air-cushioned lift, not a lid that drops off or has to be prised.
- Insert depth
- The tallest item plus 2 mm. On a two-layer box, this sets the total height and the ribbon lift.
- Humidity
- Board takes up moisture and a lid set snug in a dry factory can bind in a damp shop. We allow for the delivery market.
- Tolerance
- Plus or minus 0.5 mm on a rigid box, tighter than folding board because nothing springs back.
Not sure your numbers are right? Send the product dimensions rather than the box dimensions and we work the box out — the full method is in our guide to measuring for a box.

Frequently asked questions
Got a question about anklet boxes? The answers below cover what we get asked most. If yours is not here, send it with a brief, message us on WhatsApp, or call +1 503-461-4788 — we reply the same working day.
How do you stop the chain tangling?
It is coiled on a slit card, laid in a channel, or clasped around a card, so it cannot move in the box.
What size box is right?
Around 80–100 mm square and 15–20 mm deep. Any deeper and a fine chain looks lost.
Can I use one box for many designs?
Yes, a plain rigid box with a printed sleeve per design, or a printed card inside.
Is silver safe in the box?
With a tarnish-safe liner or an anti-tarnish strip, yes. Standard board and adhesives can tarnish silver stocked for months.
What is the cheapest format?
A card in a printed sleeve, which also goes through a letterbox.
What is the minimum order for anklet boxes?
100 boxes. A plain rigid box with a printed sleeve per design lets one order carry several anklet styles.
Can the lid be magnetic?
Yes, on a hinged box from about 60 mm wide.
Can the box show the anklet length?
Yes, by clasping it around a card the way it is worn.
Do rigid boxes ship flat?
No, they arrive assembled. Cartons and sleeves ship flat.
Can I have foil?
Yes, and on a small lid it is the finish that does most. The die is kept.
Do earring and anklet boxes match?
Yes, the same wrap, foil and liner across both sizes, from one print system.
Can anklet boxes ship to the UK, Canada or Australia?
Yes. We quote the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia in the delivery currency. Cartons and card-and-sleeve packs travel flat, while rigid anklet boxes arrive assembled.
