The symbolism of the jewel

The jewel's name is inspired by the Japanese name "Aiko" which means "child of love."
The padlock and key symbol represents the desire to offer the key to one's heart and to be bound in love for life.

Gold plating is a process steeped in history. This gilding technique has been used around the world since antiquity. Once a sign of wealth and power, it is now a symbol of elegance.

Choosing your size

Before ordering your bracelet, check the size that suits you.
The size depends on the morphology of your wrist and how you wish to wear it.
Measure the circumference of your wrist with a flexible tape measure, or if you don't have one, use a string or strip of paper and then measure its length with a ruler.
Generally, the bracelet size is 1 to 2 cm larger than the wrist circumference. It all depends on how you want to wear it, loose or tighter.
A bracelet should not be too tight or too loose to avoid injury, discomfort, or a lack of elegance.
It is advisable to measure a well-fitting bracelet that you wear regularly to help you choose the size of the new one you wish to order.

Use and care tips

To preserve the jewel from premature aging and maintain its shine, MOONSTRA advises you to avoid:

• exposing it to fresh, salt, or chlorinated water. Remove the jewel before showering or swimming.
• exposing it to sand and salt. Remove the jewel before going to the beach.
• exposing it directly to perfumes, deodorants, creams, and other cosmetic products. Wait for the products to be absorbed by the skin before putting on the jewel.
• exposing it to oxidizing products. Remove the jewel before doing household chores or DIY.
• exposing it to heavy perspiration. Remove the jewel before any intense physical activity.
• keeping it on for sleeping and manual activities.

To clean and shine the jewel, MOONSTRA advises you to rub it gently with a soft-bristled brush moistened with water and a mild shampoo or Marseille soap, then rinse it with clear water and finally dry it with a soft cloth.
