Step into another time with this one-of-a-kind upcycled cigar box, transformed into a vintage steampunk treasure chest. The box features a richly layered design of aged gears, roman numeral clock faces, ornate pocket watches, and distressed metallic accents. Ideal for storing keepsakes, jewelry, or as a unique gift box for a special occasion.
The lid showcases a bold collage of timepieces and gears, while the interior is lined with deep, moody textures, including a shadowy clock face on the bottom. Brass corner guards add a sturdy, antique feel, and real metal embellishments—keys, clock hands, and gear charms—complete the immersive steampunk style.
Features:
• Repurposed wooden cigar box with steampunk design
• Mixed media collage: paper, metal embellishments, paint
• Detailed inside and out with vintage gear and clock motifs
• Brass-look metal feet and protective corners
• Text inside lid reads: “Every possibility begins with courage to imagine”
• Measures approximately apx 7x5.5x3”
Perfect as a gift for steampunk lovers, writers, adventurers, or anyone who appreciates vintage science fiction aesthetics. Great for display or daily use.

To keep your box looking its best:
• Avoid placing it in direct sunlight (which may fade the paper)
• Keep it out of humid areas like bathrooms
I use high-quality, archival scrapbook paper that’s made to last for years, but gentle care will help it stay beautiful longer.
The box size I use depends on the paper design. Most designs are made using 12x12” paper, but smaller prints (6x6” or 8x8”) require smaller boxes. If you’d like a different size than shown in the listing, just message me—I’ll let you know what’s possible and do my best to make it happen.
A: A custom box takes extra time because I carefully plan the design with your preferences in mind. I may need to order special embellishments or supplies to make it truly unique. Your input is always welcome!
🛑 Holiday note: The deadline to order a custom box for Christmas delivery is November 1st.
All boxes are thoroughly aired out before decorating to ensure there’s no residual odor. I also clean and line each one with care. All work is done in a smoke-free studio, and your box will arrive fresh and ready to enjoy.
I only use clean, undamaged cigar boxes that are free of odor.
While there’s no “Custom Order” button in my shop (during the Holiday season), most listings can be personalized. I work with beautiful papers from:
• Graphic 45
• Stamperia
• Blue Fern Studios
• Ciao Bella
• Mintay
If you see a collection you love (after Nov 1st), send me a message. I’d love to create something just for you.
Each decorated box is thoughtfully wrapped to ensure it arrives safely and beautifully:
• First, I wrap your box in two layers of soft tissue paper for a gentle protective layer.
• Next, it’s wrapped in two layers of bubble wrap to cushion it securely during transit.
• I then tie it with a coordinating ribbon, not only for a charming presentation but also to make it easy to lift the box from the shipping carton—just pull the ribbon.
Your order is then placed in a sturdy box and shipped with care. I take pride in every detail, so your unboxing experience is as delightful as the keepsake inside.
My two feline shop assistants like to supervise from a distance—but don’t worry, I have a strict paws-off policy! They never come into contact with materials or products. All boxes are created and stored in a clean, smoke-free studio, and your order will arrive fresh, odor-free, and beautifully wrapped.
