............... sterling silver & packaging ..............
Minimal, clean and stylish packaging. Minicyn does not compromise the beauty of packaging by using specially made customised Minicyn gift box made from eco-certified FSC Mix recycled paper/material, Moo's Green business recycled cotton card option and kraft envelopes - the result is simply beautifully clean avoiding the least possible useless plastic frills that come with dressing a gift.
Minicyn shop is filled with both made-to-order designs and unique/one-of-a-kind ready-made pieces. Most of all, orders are made as they come in that way nothing is wasted.
Every effort is put into using Sterling Silver 925 sourced from local suppliers - locally whenever possible. Our local suppliers in Paris, France aren’t able to meet the demands of recycled Silver consistently in its entirety, unfortunately. All the Silver chutes from Minicyn's production are recycled back professionally into a local foundry and nothing is wasted.
Our world is our home, treat it like it is. Be proud of looking after your home.
Thank you for your visit.
