20 Years of Structural Design Experience

This octagonal tea set with a matching lid-and-tray box is an exquisitely packaged gift box, designed exclusively for high-end customization. The box is crafted from matte art paper in off-white or dark green, weighing 250–300g/m², with a soft texture and a premium tactile feel. Reinforced double‑sided grey board supports the octagonal edges, ensuring long‑term stability and resistance to deformation. The inner lining features 38°~45° high-density EVA foam with a velvety flocking, precisely tailored to the shape of the tea set, providing cushioning, shock absorption, and slip‑resistant, abrasion‑resistant protection. Dimensions can be adjusted by mold customization based on the customer’s actual tea caddies and teacups; both the box size and height are customizable. Printing options include spot colors and four‑color CMYK overprinting, with delicate and elegant graphics such as landscape water‑ripple patterns and auspicious cloud seals. The surface is finished with a matte tactile film or a touch‑sensory coating, offering fingerprint resistance and scratch protection. It also features electro-aluminum hot-stamping in bright gold, with an optional embossed‑debossed relief finish to elevate its light-luxury appeal. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail throughout the entire production process, the lid opens and closes with just the right amount of tension, perfectly meeting your personalized needs for a tea gift box.

Technical Specifications

Size Octagonal outer box, finished product external dimensions: 240mm × 240mm × 72mm. Lid-and-tray closure gap: 1~1.5mm; opening and closing are neither too loose nor too tight, with clean, precise alignment when closed—no sagging and no sticking. The internal compartments’ length, width, and depth can be custom-molded to match the actual dimensions of customers’ tea jars, teacups, and teaspoons; the box’s size and height are also available as customizable options.
Lining structure Base material: 38°~45° high-density EVA foam, precisely tailored to the teaware’s contours. Surface: All-over off-white flocking for cushioning, shock absorption, non-slip performance, and wear resistance, enhancing the teaware’s refined texture.
Printing process Base Color: The natural tone of art paper requires no solid‑area printing; for coated stock, the off‑white lid and dark green body are printed in four‑color process using spot colors. Graphic Elements: Landscape water ripples, tea leaves and branches, auspicious cloud motifs, a seal LOGO, and the text “Yunjing Tea Gift.” Fine‑line text is reproduced via precise four‑color overprinting, creating a soft, elegant, and refined traditional Chinese‑style aesthetic.
