MEMORY BOXES
by Sullo Glass Studio

"A unique and beautiful way to commemorate the special occasions in your life."

        A Memory Box is a stained glass box with an invitation, photo or other printed memento as the centerpiece, sandwiched between twin layers of glass to create a decorative lid. We can create a unique, one of a kind box to match your invitation.

        The unique personalized nature of our Memory Boxes makes them the ideal gift item to celebrate such important events in your life as:
  • Weddings
  • Anniversaries
  • Births and Birthdays
  • Graduations
  • Bar Mitzvahs / Bat Mitzvahs...

...or any similar event worthy of remembrance.

        We use handmade paper to line the boxes and this paper influences the color of the box. For example, you might choose a clear textured glass for a purple invitation and a purple paper lining would "tint" the clear glass to match the invitation.

        When the box is opened, the back of the lid will house a mirror of the same size as the original invitation. This mirror can alternately be replaced with a photo, a reception card, or any other appropriate two-dimensional media specified by the customer. Also, if desired, the mirror can simply be omitted and replaced with colored handmade paper behind a textured clear glass, for a more masculine effect.
        With our selection of 34 glass colors and textures in stock, and 38 handmade lining colors to choose from, your Studio Memory box can be simply and beautifully customized to preserve your precious memory in truly elegant style.

        Either choose a style and color of glass and a suitable paper lining to compliment your invitation, or leave the choice to us.


ABOUT SIZING

        Our boxes generally fall into three sizes:

THE SMALL BOX

        Suitable for snapshots, birth announcements and smaller invitations up to 30 sq. inches (for example: 5"x 6", or 4 1/2" x 6 1/2". This is the measurement of the printed piece itself). The final box will be approximately 50 sq. inches. We use larger glass borders on smaller invitations to make the finished lid approximately 50 sq. inches.

THE TRADITIONAL BOX

        Suitable for invitations up to 64 sq. inches (for example: 8"x 8", 6"x 9 3/4". This is the size of most invitations). The finished box will be approximately 100 sq. inches. We use larger glass borders on smaller invitations to make the finished lid 100 sq. inches.
OVERSIZE

        Any invitation measuring above 64 sq. inches.
NOTE: Because each handcrafted glass box is constructed specifically to house your own invitation or photo, nonstandard sizes and longer, rectangular shapes are easily accommodated.

        Two dividers for inside the box are also available for an additional $5.00.
