The symbolism of the jewel

The name of the jewel is inspired by the name "Alya" which means "ascension" in Hebrew.

The leaf is a protective symbol that represents change, self-development, and maturity gained through life over time.

Gold plating is a process rich in history. This gilding technique has been used worldwide since antiquity. Once a sign of wealth and power, it now conveys elegance.

Choosing your size

Before ordering your ankle chain, check the size that suits you.
The size depends on the morphology of the ankle and how you wish to wear it.
Measure the circumference of your ankle with a flexible tape measure, or if you don't have one, use a thread or a strip of paper and then measure its length with a ruler.
Generally, the measurement is taken at the bottom of the ankle at the malleolus ("the bony bump" you have on the side and outside of the foot).
The ankle chain size is generally 1 to 2 cm more than the ankle circumference. It all depends on how you want to wear it, loose or tighter, but it should be able to rotate easily around the ankle.
The ankle chain should not be too tight or too loose to avoid injuries, discomfort, or lack of elegance.
It is advisable to measure a well-fitting one that you wear regularly to help you choose the size of the new one you wish to order.

Usage and care tips

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

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

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