OLYCRAFT Unfinished Bamboo Storage Box 12 x 2.2 x 1.8 in — Slim Rectangular Case with Hinged Lid & Front Clasp

OLYCRAFT's unfinished 12 x 2.2 x 1.8 inch bamboo box is a lightweight, hinged wooden storage box designed for branding, painting, and personalised craft projects while keeping small items securely stored.

This slim rectangular box combines natural bamboo with practical hardware—an easy-close front clasp and a hinged lid—so you get a blank, ready-to-decorate canvas plus useful protection for jewellery, pencils, keepsakes, or a custom-branded gift. The untreated surface is ideal for staining, decoupage, pyrography (wood-burning), stamping or fabric wraps, and its inside dimensions suit banded tools, pens, or a row of small keepsakes. Read on to see how its build and finishes make it a versatile base for DIY and small-business branding.

How large is the OLYCRAFT box and what fits inside?

The external footprint measures about 12 x 2.2 x 1.8 inches, with internal usable space of roughly 11.4 x 1.7 x 1 inches. That tight, shallow interior is designed for long, narrow items—think pencils, thin branding irons, necklaces laid flat or small tool sets.

• External: 30.6 x 5.7 x 4.7 cm (12 x 2.2 x 1.9 in)
• Internal: 29 x 4.4 x 2.6 cm (11.4 x 1.7 x 1 in)
• Best for slim objects: pencils, small jewellery, thin branding irons, rolled cash or notes

What materials and construction does it use?

Made from responsibly sourced bamboo, the box has a smooth, unfinished surface that carries a faint natural wood aroma. Metal hinges and a small front clasp are preinstalled for reliable opening and closing; the light construction keeps the box portable while protecting contents from light knocks.

• Premium bamboo panels for a stable, lightweight shell
• Pre-fitted metal hinge and front clasp for secure closure
• Unfinished surface for easy adhesion and crafting

How can I customize or finish the box?

The unfinished face is intentionally raw so it accepts many craft techniques. You can stain or varnish it, burn a logo or pattern with a branding iron, apply decoupage or fabric, or paint detailed artwork—each method bonds well to raw bamboo when prepped properly.

• Wood-burning and laser marking for crisp, permanent branding
• Staining or clear coats to enhance grain and durability
• Paint, decoupage, or fabric lining for personalised gifts

How secure and practical is it for storing valuables?

The box is designed for lightweight protection and tidy organization rather than heavy-duty security. The hinged lid and front clasp hold contents in place during storage or gentle transport; add foam inserts or felt lining for extra scratch protection and snug fit.

• Hinged lid prevents accidental opening during handling
• Front clasp ensures the box stays closed on shelves or in bags
• Optional foam or felt linings reduce movement and protect finishes

Who is this for? Makers, small business owners, and hobby crafters who want a compact, customisable packaging option will value this OLYCRAFT bamboo box. It’s suitable for artisan sellers packaging branded tools or jewellery, DIYers who want a ready-to-finish project, and anyone seeking a slim, attractive storage solution for pens, small keepsakes, or holiday gifts. If you need a shallow, long box to personalize and protect light items, this unfinished wooden box is an economical blank canvas with practical hardware already in place.
