Skiinni was born from a childhood memory, a thread that’s tied our family together across oceans.

Growing up between the shores of the United States and the sun-kissed villages of the Greek side of Cyprus, my brothers and I carried a piece of home wherever we went. Every summer, we’d see locals and visitors wearing the humble, hand-woven bracelets sold by the sea or in small monastery shops.

 These bracelets weren’t just accessories; they were blessings. Each one was lovingly crafted by nuns using simple string, wax, and beads, then imbued with prayer. You put it on once, wore it always, and when it finally broke, it was said to have absorbed all the negative energy meant for you, releasing it back into the world as peace.

We’d return to the U.S. with wrists full of them, gifting them to friends and family who admired their quiet strength and meaning. Over time, these bracelets became more than souvenirs; they became symbols of protection, connection, and identity. Even today, each of us still wears at least one, our small reminder of home, faith, and the bond that keeps us close no matter how far apart we are.
Skiinni is our way of sharing that feeling with the world.

Every bracelet carries the spirit of those childhood summers, the calm of the Aegean breeze, and the love that binds people beyond borders. Our tagline “Bound Once, Blessed Forever” honors that idea: once you put on a Skiinni bracelet, you’re part of something lasting, a quiet promise of resilience and hope.

But Skiinni isn’t just about what we wear, it’s about what we give. A percentage of every sale is donated to charitable organizations that bring light, safety, and opportunity to others. In this way, every bracelet becomes a blessing paid forward, a way to spread the same joy, protection, and love that shaped our own journey.

From our family to yours, thank you for being part of this story.

We hope your Skiinni serves as a reminder that even the smallest threads can hold great meaning, and that every bond, once made with love, truly lasts forever.
