What people are saying

Real words from people who ordered a carvdbox for a wedding, an anniversary, a retirement, or just because someone deserved to be told something permanent.

★★★★★

I was honestly a bit worried about ordering a custom wood box online because you never know if the lettering will look cheap or blurry. But wow. The engraving of our wedding vows on the lid is so incredibly sharp and clean. It became the centerpiece of our memory table.

My husband usually hates sentimental gifts but he actually got choked up when he opened this. Having the letter I wrote him permanently etched into such a beautiful piece of wood made it unforgettable. Just outstanding quality all around.

If you are looking for a gift that screams luxury without breaking the bank this is it. The raw wood feels so premium in your hand and the finish is flawless. I put a watch inside it for my brother's graduation and he won't stop talking about the packaging.

The attention to detail here is unmatched. I sent in a super long custom letter text expecting them to say it was too many characters but they fit the entire message perfectly on the lid. The text is totally legible and looks like fine art.

Shipping was incredibly fast and the customer service team answered my questions within ten minutes. They helped me tweak the font layout before engraving it just to make sure I was happy with how the message sat on the wood. That level of care is rare these days.

This is easily the coolest thing I have ever bought on the internet. We got the one with the mini bouquet laid out inside and the look on her face when she unlatched it and read the engraving was priceless. It smells amazing too.

Perfect anniversary gift period. It is simple elegant and heavy duty. The hardware latch feels sturdy and the engraving depth on the letters is perfect. Definitely ordering another one for my parents upcoming anniversary.

I needed a last minute retirement gift for a coworker and carvdbox absolutely saved the day. I had a quote we always use in the office engraved on top. It arrived beautifully packaged and ready to give. The whole office was asking where I got it.

You can tell whoever makes these genuinely cares about craftsmanship. The wood grain is gorgeous and the text contrast is nice and dark. It looks even better in person than it does in the photos.

Such a unique concept for a gifting business. Instead of a basic card that gets thrown away next week this is something we will keep on our mantel forever. It literally holds our entire story on the cover.

I am extremely picky about font styles and formatting but they nailed the text layout perfectly. It looks very modern and high end not tacky or rushed. Worth every single penny.

The mini flower bouquet inside was such a beautiful touch to go with the letter on top. It adds a whole extra layer of romance when you open it up. My fiancee was incredibly moved by the entire presentation.
