Abstract

A folding paperboard gift box having a generally square or rectangular cross section enclosure formed by four wall panels and closed at both ends by suitable end closures, which may constitute interconnecting end panels. Hingedly attached to one of these panels is a decorative design element. Upon the setting up or squaring or the closing of the box, this design element becomes spaced-apart from the surface of the panel from which it is attached and thus stands out prominently as a part of the completed box.
