art History

 

Where do our ideas come from? 

 

When we created the Beautiful Box we were looking for a unique way to separate our boxes from the rest of the market. How could we come up with boxes that were both beautiful and different? With two artists on the team and much knowledge of  art history, we decided that our palette of colors and our source of inspiration would be drawn from those who were masters of color theory: artists throughout history. In order to name each collection we decided to use the age old practice that artists use when signing a work of art that is copied from another: “AFTER” and then the artist name. When you copy a great master there are two primary components you must follow: do not reproduce the work in its original size and add below your signature, “AFTER” and then the original artists name. So our colors and patterns are developed from the vast array of colors and color  schemes we find in works of art through out art history.

Under construction

the Beautiful Box is currently undergoing construction and will re-open sometime in August. At that time we will be presenting our Christmas and Hanukkah Collections, as well as revising our current collections. Thank you for your patience.
