Naked Box® Gray A5 Deep Luxury Gift Box Sample – Natural Matte Finish
Order a single or multiple Naked Box® Gray A5 Deep Gift Box samples to assess the distinctive color, natural paper finish, construction and product fit before placing a bulk order.
Originally designed and developed by Foldabox® in 2017, Naked Box® offers a distinctive alternative to conventional laminated or printed gift packaging. The special non-printed gray paper has a natural mid-gray color with subtle flecking, creating a tactile matte finish that provides a contemporary alternative to traditional brown kraft packaging.
Please note: Add samples to your cart; shipping is calculated at checkout based on the total weight. Samples usually arrive within 2–4 business days.
Exclusive Naked Box® Natural Gray Finish
The character of Naked Box® comes from the paper itself. Rather than using a printed gray ink, the box is covered inside and outside with a special 160gsm naturally gray textured paper with subtle flecking.
There is no lamination, allowing the natural appearance and texture of the paper to remain part of the finished packaging. The closest Pantone reference is 416C, although we recommend ordering a sample where precise color assessment is important.
A Contemporary Alternative to Brown Kraft Packaging
The natural mid-gray color offers businesses a different approach to neutral packaging. It retains the understated character associated with natural paper finishes while providing a more contemporary alternative to conventional brown kraft.
The Naked Box® Gray A5 Deep is particularly suited to:
- Beauty, skincare and natural cosmetics
- Wellness, toiletries and personal care products
- Candles, home fragrance and lifestyle products
- Artisan food and confectionery
- Jewelry, accessories and design-led products
- Home goods and small interior products
- Corporate gifts and branded presentation packs
- Subscription and curated product collections
- Premium retail and e-commerce packaging
Distinctive Folding Construction with No Sticky Corners
Naked Box® also differs from many of our conventional magnetic folding gift boxes in its construction. Instead of adhesive corner tabs, the box incorporates double folding inner flaps at the front and back to hold the assembled box firmly in position.
This allows the box to be unassembled and folded flat again if required, making it practical for storage and reuse while retaining the substantial presentation of a rigid gift box when assembled.
Please note: Because of the additional inner assembly flaps, the usable internal front-to-back dimension is fractionally smaller than other A5 Deep gift boxes of the same external size. We particularly recommend ordering a sample where product fit or insert dimensions are critical.
Concealed Magnetic Closure
The A5 Deep box is manufactured from substantial 1200g recycled grayboard and features a 2" deep front flap with two concealed magnetic closures. This provides a secure snap-shut closure while maintaining the understated exterior of the box.
No ribbon is supplied, leaving the natural gray surface uninterrupted and providing businesses with a versatile base for labels, sleeves, wax seals and other branded packaging accessories.
