Laya Gold Studs

For optimal care of all jewellery we suggest, jewellery should be the last thing you put on and the first thing you take off at night.

To protect chains, coil them when you take them off, wipe down your jewellery with your ORA jewellery polishing cloth, that we give to you with each purchase and when you take your jewellery off store in your
jewellery pouch or an airtight container. It is good to wipe down your jewellery regularly to avoid a build-up of residue from, lotions, sweat, etc.  Avoid abrasive materials and strong chemicals. Avoid impact with hard surfaces and clean regularly.

Do not dip in or use any jewellery cleaner on any gold plated jewellery, as it could damage the gold plating.

Only use a jewellery polishing cloth to wipe it down.

We use the highest quality pure & real metals

Brass 

We use fine Italian Brass, that has been made specifically for jewellery use. we do not plate or coat our brass unless indicated as gold plated. Our brass is highly polished. A natural patina will develop over time, giving it a matte finish and darkening the tone of your brass jewellery. If you have high sulphite levels in your skin or use lotions with high sulphur content it can affect the colour of the brass. If you would like to restore the polished finish you can easily do so with a soft micro fibre cloth and a dab of generic brass cleaner or a jewellery polishing cloth Gold Plated. We use a thick 14ct thick micron plating to ensure that our plating is durable and long-lasting, waterproof and tarnish resistant.

Silver

We use 925 Sterling silver, and assure the highest quality silver that lasts.

We use 9ct gold in our collection and 14ct and 18ct on request.
