About ★ Sport Gloves | Pandora's Box
The ★ Sport Gloves | Pandora's Box is the most aesthetically opulent glove finish in CS2. Released in November 2017 with the Spectrum 2 Case, Pandora's Box features deep purple and gold ornamental patterns inspired by Greek mythology — referencing the mythical container that, when opened, released all the world's evils.
Design
Pandora's Box uses a layered illustration of intertwining gold filigree on a deep purple-burgundy background. Subtle motifs include keys, snake imagery, and ribbons — referencing the box's mythological contents. The gold leaf detailing has unusual reflective behavior in-game; the gloves catch light differently from any other CS2 glove finish, making them visually striking even at a glance.
Drop Source & Supply
Pandora's Box drops only from the Spectrum 2 Case, in standard drop rotation since 2017 but at a low rate. Active supply is wider than Hedge Maze (~3,400 vs ~1,800 across all wears), with FT specimens making up the largest segment. FT trades around $5,750 vs FN's ~$8,500.
Market Position
Pandora's Box and Hedge Maze are the two-knife pair in the gloves market — collectors typically own one but rarely both. Pandora's Box offers more visual drama, Hedge Maze more sophisticated restraint. The price gap between them has narrowed over 2025-2026 as the demographic shift toward "tasteful" collecting lifted Hedge Maze's relative position.
