CHRONICLE
Preserving life stories
Because Voices & Memories
Belong Together
Our Chronicle Memory Box is the perfect way to preserve life stories and memories. Our box lets you add audio to your printed photographs. Just touch a photo onto the box to play the associated story recording. So whether as a gift to celebrate the life of a loved one, or as a group gift with voice messages of love and friendship, our Memory Box is a unique gift that will be cherished forever.
​
We hand make our boxes with a level or personal detail and attention to quality that matches the importance of the memories and voices they preserve.
We are proud to have created Memory Boxes for a range of individuals, as well as organisations including:
“I saw an example memory box at a local expo and thought it would make a great present for my husband’s 50th birthday. And I was right! There’s something really special about capturing the voices and memories of the special people in someone’s life and to have those for ever. I would definitely recommend a memory box for a special birthday!” - Louise B
How it works
Bring photos to life with stories, memories and greetings
The Chronicle Memory Box attaches voice recordings to your printed photos.
​
By touching a photo onto the box, the associated audio will play.
​
Our simple and unique ‘touch and play’ method means anyone can use the memory box. Simply turn on and touch your photos onto the memory box to listen to the associated stories.
​
There’s no ‘apps’ to download and there's no smartphones, PC's or iPads to worry about either.
​
Preserve your memories and enjoy time reminiscing with voices of those you love.
​
Create something meaningful to cherish forever.
We provide the box, you provide the memories
A picture speaks a thousand words.
