Jewelry Care

    • What materials do you use?

      • We only use precious metals with intrinsic value for our jewelry:
        • 14k Gold Filled
        • 14K Solid Gold
        • 14K gold plated - 3x thicker compared to industry standard.
        • Sterling Silver
      • What materials do you avoid?

      We only use the above precious metals and avoid the following commonly used metals in jewelry:
      • Gold-Plated over alloy – A thin gold-layer electroplated over a cheaper base metal, used in “fake” or “costume jewelry”
      • Silver-Plated over alloy – A thin silver-layer electroplated over a cheaper base metal, used in “fake” or “costume jewelry”
      • Nickel – Used as a base metal or as a layer to brighten up plating on top. Unfortunately, Nickel is known to cause skin reactions in a significant portion of the population
  • So… there’s no nickel?

    • NO NICKEL. We do not use any nickel in any of our jewelry. All our pieces are safe to wear for sensitive skin.
    • Will my jewelry tarnish?
      • Natural, precious metals can tarnish over time. Our materials are high-quality and we do everything possible to ensure the longevity of our jewelry (e.g., plating all our Sterling-Silver with Rhodium)
      • In the rare instance that your piece tarnishes, it can usually be brought back to shine with a polishing cloth. If you need our assistance in bringing it back to perfect – just sent it back and we’ll fix it up or replace it.
  • How to care for non solid gold pieces?

             Gently rub your gold-plated jewelry with a soft jewelry cloth to restore its shine. After every use, clean your jewelry with a cotton ball or a very soft cloth to remove any dust and dirt. Plated pieces can be prone to oxidation, so we recommend removing before you swim, shower, or apply lotion, makeup, or perfume. To minimize scratches, store your piece in your Little Sky Stone pouch or in a separate compartment in your jewelry box.

    • How to care for sterling silver pieces?

               Avoid exposing your sterling silver piece to chlorinated water and to cleaning products that contain bleach. Use a soft cloth to clean your silver piece. To minimize scratches and nicks, store it in your Ana Luisa pouch or in a separate compartment in your jewelry box.
