OUR MATERIALS
We design fine jewellery that can
be worn all day, every day. It’s for this reason we carefully choose precious
metals and gemstones that are both beautiful and durable, because we want our pieces to last a lifetime.
Recycled Solid Gold
All La Grotta Co jewellery pieces are made using 14k and 18k recycled solid gold, so that they will never tarnish or fade.
Gold is also naturally hypoallergenic which means it is very unlikely that our jewellery will cause any kind of reaction, even on sensitive skins.
To keep your solid gold in the best possible condition, rinse in warm soapy water and dry by wiping gently with a soft cloth.
Freshwater Pearls
Pearls are one of the most eco-friendly gemstones in the world, as the oysters and mussels they grow in naturally filter the water around them.
Our cultured freshwater pearls are harvested by hand in China. We work directly with local family-owned Pearl farms to source a wide range of colours, shapes and sizes.
We design with everything from micro pearls measuring 2-3mm, to large 12mm pearls. This gives us creative freedom, so we can bring you styles you won’t find anywhere else.
Always put your pearls on after you have applied your perfume or body lotion. To keep them shining, wipe with a damp cloth when
needed.
Diamonds
All our diamonds are sourced from expert dealers and examined by our team of gemologist to ensure the highest quality stones are chosen.
Diamonds above 0.5ct per stone will come with a GIA certificate.
To ensure your diamonds always sparkle, we recommend having them professionally cleaned every six months.
