Jewelry Care

LUSTVARA pieces are designed for everyday wear, but like all jewelry, they benefit from gentle care.
Below is a simple guide to help you keep your pieces looking beautiful for years to come.

999 Fine Silver (Pure Silver)

999 silver is 99.9% pure silver — soft, bright, and naturally hypoallergenic.
Because it contains almost no alloy metals, it is more prone to bending and surface scratches, and it may darken faster than 925 silver.

How to Care

  • Store in an airtight pouch to slow down oxidation.
  • Avoid squeezing, bending, or stacking with harder metals.
  • Remove before sleeping, exercising, or heavy use.

If Your 999 Silver Turns Dark

  • Use a silver polishing cloth to restore shine.
  • For stubborn tarnish, use mild silver cleaner sparingly.
  • Rinse with warm water and dry completely.

*Darkening is a natural reaction of pure silver and not a quality issue.

925 Sterling Silver

Sterling silver naturally reacts with air, moisture, and skin oils, which may cause it to darken over time.
This is normal and can be easily restored.

How to Care

  • Store silver in an airtight pouch or box when not in use.
  • Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, and cleaning chemicals.
  • Remove before showering, swimming, or exercising.

If Your Silver Turns Black

  • Use a silver polishing cloth to gently wipe the surface.
  • For deeper tarnish, use a mild silver cleaner or warm water + a drop of dish soap.
  • Dry thoroughly before storing.

*Tarnish is not a defect — it’s a natural characteristic of real silver.

14K Gold

14K gold is durable and ideal for everyday wear. It contains a blend of gold and alloy metals, giving it strength and a warm tone.

Care Tips

  • Clean with warm water and mild soap.
  • Dry with a soft cloth to maintain shine.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive surfaces.

18K Gold

18K gold has a richer color and higher gold content. It is slightly softer than 14K, so gentle care is recommended.

Care Tips

  • Store separately to avoid scratches.
  • Clean with a soft cloth after wearing.
  • Remove during heavy physical activities.

24K Gold

24K gold is pure gold — bright, soft, and luxurious. Because of its softness, it can bend or scratch more easily.

Care Tips

  • Handle gently and avoid pressure or bending.
  • Store in a padded box or pouch.
  • Keep away from hard surfaces to prevent dents.

Crystal & Glass Elements

Crystal pieces add sparkle but require gentle handling. They can chip or scratch if dropped or hit.

Care Tips

  • Wipe with a soft, lint‑free cloth.
  • Avoid ultrasonic cleaners.
  • Keep away from hard impacts or sharp objects.
  • Store separately to prevent scratches.

General Care Tips

  • Put jewelry on last after skincare, perfume, and hair products.
  • Remove before swimming, showering, or exercising.
  • Store pieces individually to avoid tangling or scratching.
  • Clean regularly to maintain shine and color.
