Cool.

Can we try to get the terminology straightened out though?

Is it Brand or BrandMaker or sealSystemMaker? SealedBox, Box, or Envelope?

I think i'll vote for either SealMaker or BrandMaker, and Envelope.

Is the constructor method conventionally to be called "make" or "new"?

I think i'll vote for "make", since it's a verb.
