Cyrus

Inspiration: The Power of Subtlety

In a world of increasingly flashy accessories, the Cyrus Collection embraces the allure of discretion. The relief of an anchor, barely perceptible to the eye but perfectly defined to the touch. The soft outline of waves in silver-plated metal. The perfect symmetry of an infinity symbol in very low relief. These are details noticed only by those who approach, those who truly look. And for some, that is precisely the perfect accessory.

Materials: Vegetable-tanned leather and high-quality metal plates

Cyrus bracelets combine vegetable-tanned leather of Spanish origin—the unmistakable foundation of the entire Xauen Original collection—with rectangular silver-plated metal plates. The plate acts as the central element of the bracelet, with the relief engraved on its outer surface and perforations at the ends through which the leather straps pass.

The silver plating of the Cyrus plates has a satin finish that highlights the engraved reliefs without being overly shiny. Two leather knots flank the plaque on either side, adding texture and visual balance to the piece.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do the Cyrus Collection charms tarnish over time?

The silver-plated metal charms in the Cyrus Collection may darken slightly over time and with contact with moisture and skin, which in many cases adds character to the accessory. To keep them in optimal condition, clean them occasionally with a dry microfiber cloth and avoid prolonged exposure to water or chemicals such as perfumes and creams.

What is the difference between the Cyrus Collection and the Zhanshi Collection?

Both collections share the concept of handcrafted leather with a central metal symbol, but with a distinct approach. Zhanshi uses more prominent pieces with three-dimensional symbols (a feather, a three-dimensional anchor), while Cyrus works with flat charms and very subtle, more discreet reliefs. Zhanshi has a stronger visual presence; Cyrus focuses on the elegance of the almost imperceptible.

Are Cyrus bracelets waterproof?

They are not waterproof. Vegetable-tanned leather is resistant to occasional moisture (a few drops of rain, light perspiration), but should not be submerged in water or regularly exposed to intense humidity. If they get wet, dry them at room temperature without direct heat.

What size should I choose for Cyrus bracelets?

All bracelets in the Cyrus Collection are adjustable using a leather knot system. The knot can be adjusted to different positions to fit wrist sizes between approximately 15 and 23 cm. You don't need to know your exact size: the bracelet adapts to you.
