Key Features
Custom Drawer Boxes — The Sliding Reveal That Defines Premium Packaging
The drawer box format — an outer shell with a ribbon-pull inner drawer that slides horizontally — creates one of the most theatrical and memorable unboxing experiences in premium packaging. The customer grasps the ribbon pull, the drawer glides smoothly from the shell, and the product is revealed laterally in a moment of controlled anticipation. This format is the signature packaging of fine jewelry brands, luxury watchmakers, and premium corporate gift programs.
Our drawer boxes are constructed from rigid greyboard for both the outer shell and the inner drawer, ensuring structural integrity and consistent sliding performance. The ribbon pull — in satin, grosgrain, or cotton — provides a comfortable grip for smooth drawer extraction. Interior options include velvet, faux suede, foam inserts, and custom cardboard inserts for precise product positioning.
Engineering the Drawer Slide Experience
The quality of a drawer box is determined by the smoothness of the drawer slide — it should glide out with consistent resistance, neither falling out freely nor requiring force. We achieve this through precise dimensional engineering of the drawer-to-shell clearance, calibrated to the specific board thicknesses and surface finishes used. The ribbon pull is attached through a reinforced grommet in the drawer front, positioned to distribute pull force evenly across the drawer structure.
Drawer Box Applications in Jewelry and Gifting
Drawer boxes are the preferred format for fine jewelry brands because the horizontal reveal angle presents jewelry at the most flattering viewing geometry — lying flat in the drawer against a velvet or suede background. The slow, controlled reveal creates a moment of ceremony appropriate for significant jewelry purchases. Corporate gift programs use drawer boxes for premium gift packaging that communicates thoughtfulness and investment.
Custom Packaging for the World's Most Demanding Market
New York City sets the global standard for packaging quality in fashion, luxury goods, cosmetics, and consumer brands. What works on Fifth Avenue and in Barneys must be genuinely premium — not premium-adjacent. The concentration of global luxury brands, independent fashion designers, Michelin-starred food producers, and world-class DTC companies in New York City creates a packaging market where quality is the baseline, not a differentiator. Branded Boxes produces packaging that meets New York's uncompromising standards.
New York City Fashion and Luxury Packaging
New York City is the fashion capital of the Western Hemisphere and a center for luxury retail that rivals Paris, Milan, and Tokyo. Packaging for New York fashion brands, luxury retailers, and prestige consumer products must communicate quality at the highest global standard. Soft-touch lamination, foil stamping, premium rigid boxes, and specialty papers from European mills are the baseline for New York luxury brand packaging. We produce luxury packaging for New York's most demanding brands.
Brooklyn and Downtown NYC Artisan and DTC Packaging
Brooklyn's artisan food scene, Williamsburg's independent fashion brands, and Downtown Manhattan's DTC startup ecosystem have created one of the world's most dynamic markets for premium-but-accessible packaging. Digital printing from 50 units makes premium packaging accessible for Brooklyn's indie brands, while our production quality matches the standards of the New York market's most discerning consumers.
Upstate New York Packaging Solutions

We serve upstate New York businesses with the same quality standards as our NYC clients, with competitive pricing appropriate for upstate market economics.

Drawer Boxes in New York — FAQs
What ribbon materials are available for drawer pull?
We offer satin ribbon (most common, available in hundreds of colors), grosgrain ribbon (more textured, slightly stiffer), and cotton cord for a natural, artisan aesthetic. Ribbon width and color are selected to complement your box's exterior wrapping and brand color system.
Can drawer boxes be produced with multiple drawer compartments?
Yes. Multi-drawer configurations with two or three individual drawers are used for gift sets containing multiple products. Each drawer can have its own interior lining and insert design.
How is the drawer held inside the shell during shipping?
The drawer is secured during shipping with a friction fit engineered slightly tighter than standard use clearance, and by a fold-over closure flap on the back of the shell. This prevents the drawer from sliding out during transit while maintaining smooth operation in normal use.
What is the minimum order for custom drawer boxes?
Custom drawer boxes start at 50 units. The rigid construction and custom tooling make short-run production viable at this quantity.
Can the exterior of drawer boxes be printed with brand artwork?
Yes. The outer shell wrapping paper is printed with your brand artwork before application to the greyboard core. Full-color printing, foil stamping, and embossing are all available on drawer box exteriors.
