Our 'Astra' Ruby Hoops are a celestial-inspired piece, featuring five x 2.25mm rubies set in each earring. The name "Astra" reflects the heavenly beauty of the stars, echoed in the vibrant red sparkle of the rubies, and in their compass setting. Lab-grown rubies are chemically identical to natural ones, sharing the same composition and durability but with a more sustainable, eco-friendly origin.

At L’ERA we believe your jewellery should last, both in style and in quality. That’s why we offer a one-year warranty on all of our pieces, covering any issues that arise from manufacturing faults. Full details on our warranty period can be found here.
Our gold vermeil products are solid sterling silver coated with a thick 2.5 micron plating of 14/18ct gold. Up to 5x thicker than the average gold plating and around 10x thicker than the average gold flash plating.
Store Properly: When you're not wearing your gold vermeil/sterling silver jewellery, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep your items separate to help prevent scratching.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep your gold vermeil/sterling silver jewellery away from harsh chemicals such as perfumes, lotions, household cleaners, chlorine, and abrasive substances. These chemicals can damage the gold vermeil plating and cause it to fade or sterling silver to tarnish.
Gentle Cleaning: To clean your gold vermeil/sterling silver jewelry, use a soft, lint-free cloth or a microfiber cloth to gently wipe away dirt, oils, and fingerprints. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh cleansers on our gold pieces, as they can remove or damage the gold vermeil layer. Do not use jewellery dips or ultrasonic cleaners. Our silver dip can be used on our solid sterling silver pieces only, without stones (other than diamonds)
Avoid Excessive Moisture: Minimize your jewellery's exposure to moisture, including water and humidity. Remove your sterling silver pieces before swimming, bathing, or participating in activities that may cause excessive sweating. Moisture can speed up tarnishing and potentially damage delicate gemstones or pearls.
