Silver Pillow Boxes
The pillow box is one of those packaging formats that genuinely works, the curved shape looks considered, the assembly is effortless (no tape, no glue), and the result looks like more effort went into it than actually did. Silver is cool and contemporary, technology accessories, premium beauty, anything that wants a modern metallic finish. Available from Postal Packaging in C7, C6, DL, and C5.
For extra structural protection in the same finish, our Silver Corrugated Pillow Boxes add a corrugated layer without changing the aesthetic, or browse the full Pillow Boxes collection.
