Our jewels, our packaging

What kind of metal is used in my jewel?

LOUJEM jewels is crafted exclusively in 18-carat recycled gold by artisan jewelers. Your 750/1000 (75% pure gold in the alloy), 18-carat gold jewel is a precious, long-lasting piece of jewelry that you can pass on from generation to generation. We opted to use recycled gold.

Remodeled from the existing, it offers the certainty of an ethical creation that respects the environment.

How do I create my medallion?

Here are our recommendations for creating and handling your medallion with care.

It's important to handle your jewel on a large, flat surface to avoid losing your symbols when opening it.

To open your medallion, press it against the flat surface, place your fingernails in the slot on the edge of the medallion and simply lift it.

When you change your stone, make sure it's perfectly placed in the circle provided, flush with the surface, to avoid breaking it.
Before closing the medallion, make sure your symbols are centered.

When you close it, you'll hear a gentle click.

Now it's your turn!

How do I wear my jewels ?

We advise you not to wear your jewelry during sports or manual activities. When attaching your medallion, make sure the chain clasp is securely closed.

How do I take care for my jewels ?

We advise you to avoid putting your medallion underwater, and to protect it from toxic substances (perfume, cream, chlorine, etc.). These products can damage certain materials and stones.
You can clean your medallion with a soft cleaning cloth suitable for 18-carat gold jewelry.
