Benefits of technology

"The present invention is a gift box that includes a transparent inner box for holding a gift. The inner box can be entirely transparent or have a metallic display item and / or card. The inner box is nested into an outer mailing box that has a cutout positioned so that a viewer can look through it and see the gift item inside the gift box. The outer box also has a removable opaque panel that can be inserted inside the mailing box over the top of the transparent inner box. This panel can have printing on it, such as a \"to\" and \"from\" section with lines for addressing the box for mailing. The technical effect of this invention is that it allows for easy viewing of the gift item inside the gift box without having to open the outer mailing box."
