Fine jewelry is a beautiful investment that can be cherished for generations. Whether you’re purchasing a special piece for a loved one or adding to your own collection, it’s crucial to make an informed decision – and that’s when the experts at LAGOS can help. When you are shopping for jewelry it’s important to consider the style and quality of the craftsmanship, as well as understand the materials and how to take care of your treasures.
A piece that you pass on to your family should be a time-honored style with sentimental value. If you’re looking for a modern heirloom that will stand the test of time, consider a classic Caviar style from LAGOS. Find timeless designs to suit generations of taste in the 18K Caviar Gold collection or the Caviar Spark collection. Each piece is carefully crafted by a team of skilled artisans, ensuring that it’s of the highest quality. This level of craftsmanship ensures that your LAGOS jewelry can be treasured by your family for years to come.
LAGOS jewelry is renowned for its attention to detail and use of the finest materials, such as 18K gold, sterling silver, pearls, precious gemstones, and diamonds. 18K gold is a durable material that can withstand daily wear and still glow as bright as the first day you wore it. A high-quality pearl will have a bright and reflective luster, with a nearly perfect round shape. Many gemstones are incredibly resilient, making them ideal for use in jewelry that is intended to last a lifetime.
Diamonds are the hardest natural mineral and are easily categorized. They are rated on a scale known as the 4 C’s, which includes cut, carat, color, and clarity. Carat refers to the size of the diamond, while cut refers to its symmetry, brightness, and sparkle. Color refers to the presence of any hue or tint in the diamond and clarity refers to the absence of internal and external flaws, known as inclusions and blemishes. The most valuable diamonds are completely colorless and reflect light beautifully. At LAGOS, we pride ourselves in only using the highest-quality natural materials.
Whether you’re an avid collector or are just expanding your jewelry collection, it’s important to understand how to care for your jewelry. Take your jewelry off when getting active, showering and sleeping, and remember to always put your jewelry on last, after lotions, make-up, perfume or hairspray. To avoid tarnish and scratching, store your jewelry in the complimentary pouch provided with your purchase. We also recommend cleaning your pieces with jewelry cleaner only, as water may tarnish your pieces. Our gentle jewelry cleaner is formulated for a large assortment of materials. The LAGOS customer care team is always here to assist with any jewelry cleaning questions, plus you can send your LAGOS piece in for a complimentary professional jewelry cleaning when needed.
The most collectable fine jewelry pieces to invest in are limited-edition styles, as these are highly sought after and retain their value. Sign up to be a LAGOS insider to be the first to hear about our Drop styles that are available for a limited time, in limited quantities.
