Sustainable Products
Pygn is a shop of vintage items for people who want to live a reduced waste lifestyle. Pygn's mission is to provide a stylish, ecological fashion & home solutions to customers who want to support a circular economy. We also like to offer our customers options they can't easily find anywhere else by upcycling & repurposing existing items.
At Pygn, we are working on contributing to the growing circular economy. A circular economy is an alternative to a traditional linear economy (make, use, dispose) in which we keep resources in use for as long as possible, extract the maximum value from them whilst in use, then recover and regenerate products and materials at the end of each service life. (WRAP)
The name, Pygn, was inspired by the passenger pigeon bird that went extinct in North America in 1914 due to the avarice and abusive hunting of frontier settlers. It is a reminder that as a society we need to be stewards of our planet and make it culturally taboo to not conserve the planet.
We try to use natural materials and recycle as much as we can in our business. We will often source services and supplies from other Etsy shops to continue our mission to support small and local business.
