THE ORIGINAL FLOWER BOX
The year 2000 would prove to be a very special year for Nicolai Bergmann. It was here that he came up with the idea of making the first prototype of the flower box that would later prove to be a hit around the world.
A customer approached Nicolai, at one of his newly opened stores in Tokyo, with the request to create a floral gift for a fashion press event. One of the customer's requirements was that it should not take up too much space and, if possible, should be stackable, as the desired number was 600.
After countless attempts to get the bouquets and decorations into some packaging so they could be stacked, Nicolai finally came up with the idea of putting the flowers directly into a box to meet the client's budget as well as the desire for the product not to take up too much space and to be stackable.
This was the start of an incredible adventure, and the flower box is now a trusted way of giving flowers for many people here in Denmark, but also around the world. The flower boxes you find here in our online shop are preserved flowers that last for years.
