To know

This jewelry is described as 'covered with a fine layer of gold' and not as 'gold-plated', in accordance with French regulations that require a minimum thickness of 3 microns for the use of this term. Cristal En Vie prioritizes transparent communication to accurately reflect the quality of the products offered.

Care

To preserve the shine and delicacy of the gold layer, avoid wearing this jewelry during activities that could expose it to shocks or chemicals. Gentle cleaning with a dry cloth is enough to maintain it on a daily basis.

The Agate

Agate is a variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline form of quartz composed primarily of silicon dioxide (SiO₂). It is characterized by concentric or parallel bands of various colors, formed by successive deposits of silica in rock cavities.

This stone has been appreciated since antiquity for its colored bands and varied patterns. Used in various cultures, agate was often considered a protective amulet. Today, it is prized in jewelry for its natural beauty and its ability to be dyed, allowing for a wide variety of artistic creations.

Did you know?

Named after the Achates River in Sicily, this stone was cherished by the Romans, who mastered the art of dyeing it—a practice that continues to this day.
