At 3"W the Silver Seashell Trinket Box sits in a palm, catches the candlelight down a reception table and is small enough to line up at every place setting without crowding the linen. The silver plating gives it a polished, formal shine rather than a craft-fair look, and the soft blue velvet inside is the detail guests notice when they lift the lid: earrings, a ring, a pair of cufflinks or a folded note all sit on the velvet without rattling. Filled with almonds, mints or chocolates it is a favor; left empty it is a keepsake that ends up on a nightstand holding rings at the end of the day.

Silver Seashell Trinket Box at a glance
The Silver Seashell Trinket Box is a silver plated, shell shaped box lined with soft blue velvet, approximately 3"W, hinged so it opens to hold a ring, earrings, cufflinks, mints or a small memento. It suits beach, nautical and pirate themed weddings and parties, where it works as a favor at each place setting or as a gift for the wedding party. This box has no personalization option, so it ships plain as shown and is shipped by HansonEllis, in business since 1999.
Best for: couples planning a beach, nautical or pirate themed wedding who want a polished silver favor that opens, holds something, and needs no personalizing.

- Destination and cruise weddings a compact keepsake that packs flat in a suitcase and survives the trip home.

- Bridal showers and engagement parties a silver favor on the dessert table that keeps the beach theme without looking like a craft project.
- Pirate and high seas themed parties treasure that actually shines, filled with chocolate coins or candy.
- Birthdays a small jewelry box for the friend who loses rings on the nightstand.

Care and use

- Decide what goes inside before they arrive, whether that is jewelry, candy or a small handwritten note.

Ideas for what to put inside
- Jordan almonds, mints or a couple of chocolates for a classic favor at each place setting.
- The bridesmaid's earrings or the groomsman's cufflinks, so the box becomes the wrapping.
- A folded thank-you note with the guest's name, which turns the shell into a place card as well.
- Chocolate coins for a pirate or high seas themed party table.
- Nothing at all, and let it live on a dresser as a ring dish and keepsake box.
Which one should I choose
Beach favor shoppers usually choose between a polished silver shell and a real one, so here is how the shell boxes named on this page differ.
| Silver Seashell Trinket Box | Choose it when you want shine and formality: silver plating, simple lines and a soft blue velvet lining that dresses up a beach theme. |
|---|---|
| Polished Tiger Clam Trinket Box | Choose it when you want something far more natural, a genuine polished shell rather than a silver plated one. |
| Seashell Placecard Holders | Choose these when the job at the table is displaying place cards rather than giving guests something to take home; the two work well together. |
For a beach wedding that leans elegant rather than rustic, the silver plated shell is the favor that matches the linen; add the placecard holders if the table also needs to name each seat.
Ordering the Silver Seashell Trinket Box for weddings and events
Ordering the Silver Seashell Trinket Box for a wedding, shower or company event is simple because there is nothing to personalize. There is no minimum, so order one box per guest plus a few spares for last-minute additions, or a smaller run just for the wedding party. The boxes arrive empty, which means you can fill them with almonds, mints, jewelry or a note in whatever way suits your table. Standard production runs 5–10 business days, rush 3–5 and expedite 1–3, plus 2–5 days US shipping, so plan your delivery to land before the week of the event, and for a wedding order 3–6 months ahead when you can. Because these boxes are not personalized, extras can be returned within 14 days. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
Questions shoppers ask about the Silver Seashell Trinket Box
How big is the Silver Seashell Trinket Box?

What is it made of and what is inside?
It is beautifully silver plated in a shell shape and lined with soft blue velvet, so whatever you put inside sits on velvet rather than bare metal.
Does the Silver Seashell Trinket Box open?
Yes. It is hinged, so the top lifts to reveal any memento you could want and closes again on its own hinge.

No. There is no personalization field on this page, so the Silver Seashell Trinket Box ships plain as shown. If you need names or a date on your beach favors, email [email protected] and ask which favors are personalized in-house.
Since it is not personalized, is there anything to proof?
No, there is nothing to proof on a plain box. On HansonEllis items that are personalized, a proof is optional and available on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof and adds extra days to production, and changes after a proof carry a $40 minimum updating fee.
