How to Care for Your Jewelry

◼︎ Jewelry & Mineral Care

Thank you for choosing Astrea JEWELRY and ART. All of our pieces are carefully crafted using high-quality natural stones and precious metals such as 10K / 14K / 18K gold and 925 sterling silver, without plating. To ensure lasting beauty, we kindly ask you to follow the care guidelines below.

◼︎ MINERALS CARE — Caring for Natural Stones and Raw Crystals

  • Avoid direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme dryness. Exposure may cause changes in color or texture.
  • Do not expose to water or chemicals. Please remove during bathing, household chores, or skincare routines.
  • Handle with care to avoid cracks or chips from drops or impact.
  • Display raw stones on stable surfaces and avoid tipping.
  • For cleansing, we recommend gentle methods such as moonlight or forest bathing. Sunlight, salt, or water may not suit certain stones.

◼︎ JEWELRY CARE — Caring for Fine Jewelry

  • Daily Care: Gently wipe with a soft cloth (such as chamois) after use. Store separately to prevent scratches.
  • Storage: Avoid storing in places exposed to heat, humidity, or sunlight.
  • Gold (K10 / K14 / K18): Natural wear, scratches, and patina over time are part of the material’s character.
  • Silver 925: Use a silver polishing cloth to care for tarnish (oxidation).

◼︎ Notes for Natural Stone Bracelets

  • We use durable Japanese-made wire designed for high-end jewelry. Avoid excessive pulling or bending.
  • To reduce friction between beads, we use discreet silicone cushions. These are very small—please take care not to displace them during cleaning.

◼︎ Product Warranty & Aftercare

All of our pieces are carefully crafted using high-grade natural stones, solid 10K / 14K / 18K gold without plating, and 925 sterling silver. We hope you enjoy wearing your jewelry for years to come.
