What the market buys
Lapis lazuli, silver, copper-and-silver design work, and imported gold at the higher end.
What that means for the box
Lapis is opaque, deeply saturated and usually set in silver. A pale or neutral lining shows it; a dark one loses it entirely.
Practical considerations
Distance and freight are the practical constraints, as they are anywhere in the southern cone. Sea freight on a run and air on samples is the sensible split.
Getting it to Chile
Sea into San Antonio or Valparaíso for a run, air into Santiago for samples. Chile is a long way from everywhere and the sailing reflects it, so plan the run around the shipment rather than the other way round.
Working with buyers in Chile
A modern retail trade in Santiago plus a lapis and silver craft sector. Buyers are used to importing and will handle clearance themselves; what they want from us is a specification they can plan a season around. Spanish artwork is standard.
Made to your brand
Every box we make carries your name, your colours and your logo, and nothing on it identifies us. Where you are supplying a client under their brand, that is standard OEM work for us.

Frequently asked questions
Do you ship to Chile?
Yes — we ship worldwide from Hong Kong.
What lining suits lapis lazuli?
Pale or neutral. A dark lining loses an opaque stone entirely.
How do you handle freight to South America?
Samples by air, the run by sea. We give you the current transit time from our forwarder when we quote.
Can the box carry our brand rather than yours?
Yes. Nothing on the box identifies us. That is standard for the OEM work we do.
