A paperboard tissue box having a decahedral prismatic configuration which may be rapidly fabricated using available high speed machinery providing an attractive appearance while retaining high strength is disclosed. The outer surface of the tissue box of the present invention is a decahedron having two parallel octagonal faces linked by eight rectangular lateral faces extending between the edges of the octagon and generally being disposed at right angles to the octagonal faces in the erected carton, each of the ten faces being formable by folding a unitary blank having impressed fold lines defining regions in the blank which become panels in the erected box. The panels defining the first octagonal face are formed from a single unitary octagonal region in the blank which is hingedly connected along one edge to a rectangular region while an opposing edge of the rectangular region is hingedly connected to another octagonal region which upon erection forms the other octagonal end panel defining the other octagonal face. When forming a horizontal tissue box, one of the panels extending between the two octagonal end panels will be the top panel of the carton and includes a removable oval region defined centrally therein by lines of weakness such as perforations to form an opening for removal of tissue contained in the box. Alternatively, when forming a vertical facial tissue box, one of the octagonal end panels will include an opening for gaining access to the facial tissues therein.
