Personalised Festive Penguins Christmas Keepsake Chest

Made from luxurious Paulownia wood and finished with a traditional brass clasp, our stunning Personalised Festive Penguins Christmas Keepsake Chest has a lovely natural appearance that allows it to become a sentimental keepsake, designed to be filled with festive treats, little presents and all sorts of special surprises. 

Add your chosen name to the festive penguin design and you’ve got a thoughtful Christmas gift for children and other loved ones that can be brought out, filled up and enjoyed again year after year.

The design on the curved lid is wonderfully sweet, with a pair of little penguins busy decorating their Christmas tree together. Wrapped up against the winter chill in cosy hats and scarves, the penguins are shown reaching towards the branches to add the finishing touches to their festive tree. One stands on a little stool to get closer to the decorations while the other reaches in from the opposite side, creating a lovely scene that looks as though you’ve caught them right in the middle of their Christmas preparations.

Between them stands a traditional fir tree topped with a large star. Its branches are covered with baubles, strings of beads and little hanging decorations, while more festive details are tucked around the base. Scattered stars, dots and tiny wintry motifs surround the illustration, giving the scene a subtle sense of Christmas sparkle without taking away from the beautifully simple appearance of the natural wood.

Your chosen name is incorporated beneath the penguin illustration, making the chest unmistakably personal. The name is displayed prominently in classic lettering and is accompanied by the words ‘Christmas Eve Box’ underneath, with delicate leafy flourishes framing the wording on either side. Seeing their own name on the lid is what transforms the chest from a lovely Christmas accessory into something that feels truly special to its recipient.

It makes an especially lovely Christmas gift for children. Fill it with everything needed for a cosy Christmas Eve, from  fluffy socks to sweets, chocolates and a favourite Christmas story. You could add a special mug, hot chocolate and marshmallows, a little game or activity and perhaps a Christmas film to watch together before bedtime. There’s no set formula, so you can make the contents as simple or as extravagant as you like.

One year it might be filled with Christmas pyjamas and sweets, another with books and games, and years later it might contain more grown-up treats and little luxuries. That ability to change what’s inside while keeping the same personalised chest is what makes it such a lovely basis for a long-running Christmas tradition.

Once all the presents and treats have been enjoyed, the chest can also be used for storing Christmas memories. Keep favourite cards, photographs, letters, little decorations and other festive mementoes inside, gradually building up a collection of things that remind you of Christmases gone by. It could even become a special home for treasured tree decorations between festive seasons.

Our charming Christmas chests are available in small or large.
