| Comments: | The two types of paper used for this box are soft and flexible but also strong. They can stand up to scoring and sharp creasing without any tearing or breakthrough at the corners.
This is important because making non-modular octagonal boxes is very difficult unless you score the many, complex pre-creases.
The front side of the red Torinoko Foil has flecks of metallic gold and silver. The word "foil" in its name refers to those flecks. Its reverse side is plain red.
The front side of the green Kingin also has gold and silver metallic flecks, along with swirly white fibers. Its reverse side is plain green.
These two papers make a great pairing for Christmas gift boxes! |
