Whether you can develop and manufacture a fully customised beauty case based on our concept\n\n  1.  Your minimum order quantity for a custom product\n\n  1.  Prototype\/sample development cost\n\n  1.  Estimated unit prices for 50, 100 and 200 pieces\n\n  1.  Available premium water-resistant materials, including vegan leather alternatives\n\n  1.  Custom colour options\n\n  1.  Champagne\/gold-tone hardware and zipper options\n\n  1.  Logo embossing and private-label options\n\n  1.  Custom packaging options\n\n  1.  Estimated prototype and production lead times\n\n  1.  Shipping options and estimated costs to Denmark\n\n\nI have attached our current visual concept board to communicate the intended shape, colour direction and overall aesthetic. It is an early concept and we are open to technical recommendations from your development team.\n\n\nQuality is very important to us. The finished product should feel structured, durable and premium while remaining practical for everyday and travel use.\n\n\nI look forward to hearing from you and learning more about your development and manufacturing possibilities.\n\n\nKind regards,\n\nStella",
