Luna Ria’s Moissanite jewelry is crafted from 100% gem-quality Moissanite and high-quality sterling silver. Based on the characteristics of these two materials, we have carefully created a comprehensive care guide. To ensure your jewelry continues to shine for years to come, please follow the maintenance and care methods below:

Sterling Silver

Sterling silver is the strongest silver alloy (92.5% silver and 7.5% copper), combining beauty and durability. Exposure to air, dust, or other elements, especially those containing salt and sulfur, can cause sterling silver to lose its luster more quickly. However, silver that is worn regularly requires less maintenance and can last a lifetime. We recommend wearing silver jewelry daily for optimal condition or storing it in a safe, dry place. Avoid prolonged contact with chemicals, and keep it away from humid and high-temperature environments to prevent the silver from tarnishing, turning black, or losing its shine.

Moissanite

Moissanite is an eco-friendly gemstone synthesized in the lab, with a hardness of 9.25 (close to diamond’s hardness of 10). It is resistant to scratching under normal wear but should be kept away from hard objects to avoid severe impacts, which could loosen the metal setting. Moissanite has stable chemical properties and is resistant to common acids and alkalis. It is not easily corroded by everyday cosmetics, sweat, or other substances. However, it’s still important to avoid prolonged exposure to strong chemical agents. Special care should be taken with hand creams and lotions, as oils and moisturizers can accumulate on the surface of the Moissanite, temporarily reducing its ability to refract light, making its fire appear dimmer and duller.

Cleaning

Silver Jewelry Cleaning Cloth: Use the professional cleaning cloth we provide to gently wipe your silver jewelry. This cloth contains special compounds that effectively remove dirt and oxidation from the surface of the silver. Simply wipe in one direction to bring your jewelry back to its original shine.

Warm Water and Mild Cleanser: Soak your Moissanite jewelry in warm water with a small amount of mild cleanser (such as hand soap or body wash) for 3-5 minutes to dissolve any dirt. Then, use a soft-bristled brush to gently clean any soiled areas. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to avoid water spots.

Storage

Store your Moissanite jewelry separately in a jewelry-specific sealed pouch and keep it in a dry, cool place. This will prevent friction and scratching between different pieces of jewelry and protect it from the harmful effects of direct sunlight and humid environments.
