40th Birthday Glass Trinket Box with Metal Badge 15cm - Silver

This glass trinket box marks a 40th birthday with a round metal badge set on its lid, a keepsake to treasure long after the party is over. The square box has clear glass sides and a glass lid, held in a bright silver metal frame, so whatever you keep inside stays on view. The badge carries a large 40th above the word BIRTHDAY on a ribbon banner, with three small stars beneath and a ring of lettering around the edge counting the forty years out in months, weeks, days, hours and minutes. At 15cm, it is small enough for a dressing table yet roomy enough for a handful of small trinkets.

We think it looks its best on a bedside table, a chest of drawers or a bookshelf, wherever a small keepsake can catch the eye every day. Inside, it can hold the little things worth keeping from a big birthday: a card's kind words, a ticket from the celebration, a pressed flower from the bouquet or the trinkets that otherwise go astray. As a 40th birthday gift it is thoughtful without being fussy, and the clear glass means the box looks good whether it is full or empty. It suits anyone marking their fortieth who likes a tidy surface and a reminder of the day.

The lid lifts on hinges at the back and closes with a small ball clasp at the front, and the box stands on four little ball feet that raise it just clear of the surface. Looking after it is simple: dust the frame with a soft dry cloth, and wipe the glass with a slightly damp cloth when it needs it, drying it straight away. Handle it as you would any glass piece. For gifting, we like to tuck something small inside before wrapping, a handwritten note or a token from the day, so the box becomes a present twice over.
