Gift Box: 4 button badges (Paint It Black)

This elegant matchbox-style gift box contains four designs from Stereohype's growing button badge collection – now available for the first time in this superb packaging solution. A rose-gold foil-blocked Stereohype mascot squirrel was hand-printed in the UK at the top of the gift box (outside dimensions: 75 x 72 x 16mm). Inside the beautiful matt black cardboard gift box is a black flock pad and badges are directly pinned into it. All Stereohype button badges available at stereohype.com are classic high quality one inch (25mm) metal back badges with so-called D-pin (although it looks more like an 'e'). Tiny stickers at the back of each button badge mention the artist, release date, series number, etc. Badges are manufactured with love and care in the United Kingdom.

"Badge 1, Black: There is always some Black paint around me. It belongs to my usual landscape. It was time pay some kind of tribute to it. Badge 2, Miller's: An image rescued from my memory. Since I can remember I always loved supermarkets. I still remember when I was child – everytime we were going to the mall I got so excited! Badge 3, Ape: When I was nine years old my parents moved me to a new school. My new school mates changed my name from Gre-gori to Gori-la. I did not mind, I always loved apes. Badge 4, Van: Every single Friday, it is parked in my way when I take my daughters to school. It’s gorgeous, isn’t it? Old vans forever!"
