Materials
All of our plated styles are made of high quality 18kt gold plated with a palladium coating. Palladium is a special metal that helps protect the plating and bond the gold to the medical-grade 316L stainless steel. While this combination offers exceptional durability and a luxurious, tarnish-resistant shine, proper care will ensure your cherished jewelry stays brilliant for years to come.All styles are hypoallergenic, nickel-free, and long-lasting in wear.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
✨ Daily Care & Wearing
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Always remove your jewelry before swimming in chlorinated pools, relaxing in hot springs, or using household cleaning products.
Apply First, Wear Last: Chemicals in perfumes, hairsprays, body lotions, and cosmetics can dull the gold finish. Allow these products to dry completely on your skin before putting on your jewelry.
Keep it Dry: Although 316L stainless steel is water-resistant, keeping the 18K gold surface dry helps prolong the thickness and vibrancy of the gold layer.
🧼 Gentle Cleaning Method
The Golden Rule: Never use abrasive cleaners, chemical jewelry dips, or rough polishing cloths, as they can scratch or strip the gold plating.
How to Clean: If your jewelry needs a refresh, simply wipe it gently with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth or a specialized jewelry cloth.
Deep Clean (If needed): Use lukewarm water mixed with a drop of mild, fragrance-free dish soap. Gently wipe with a soft cloth, rinse thoroughly with fresh water, and pat completely dry with a soft towel before storing.
📦 Safe Storage
Individual Safe Haven: Store your pieces separately in their original ASTRA soft pouch or a lined jewelry box. This prevents pieces from scratching against each other.
Cool & Dry: Keep your jewelry stored in a low-humidity environment away from direct sunlight and intense heat.
