In Russian language DOBRO means something good and also some important or expansive things.
So I named it Dobrobox with idea that you can carry in this box especial cutlery that you don't use everyday.

  1. Hmm. Very neat design. I like how rigid the design seems, but it also seems to have a soft feel to it. Great work!
