Our elegant Wine Gift Boxes come in numerous styles with your choice of either a bordeaux or natural wood finish (please let us know what wood finish when placing your order). Your gift box can be custom engraved with a special message. Just let us know if you have any engraving requests when placing your order. (We will provide basic engraving of up to 50 characters at no charge). Not all of our designs provide room for engraving and none of the boxes include the wine... As each box is hand made from Baltic Birch, variation in the wood grain is to be expected as is shade differences in the dye that is used to color the wood. Baltic Birch is not a specific species of birch but is a general designation of furnature quality plywood from the Baltic states (specifically Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Finland). Baltic Birch is generally of a higher quality than regular Birch plywood and as such is typically used in furniture and wood flooring and not in thin laminates.
