Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is 18K Gold Vermeil and how is it different from gold plating?
Lia Atelier specializes in 18K Gold Vermeil, which features a thick 2.5-micron layer of solid 18K gold over a Sterling Silver base. Our plating is 5x thicker than industry-standard gold-plated jewelry, ensuring a lasting, regal glow that is both durable and affordable.
Are your jewelry pieces hypoallergenic?
Yes. We use 925 Sterling Silver as our base metal, making all our pieces—including our Neo-Chinese Fàzān and earrings—hypoallergenic and safe for sensitive skin. We never use nickel, lead, or brass in our core collections.
What is the inspiration behind the Neo-Chinese Collection?
Our Neo-Chinese Collection (like our signature Fàzān hair sticks) is designed in New York to bridge the gap between ancient Eastern heritage and modern minimalist luxury. We blend traditional symbols, such as the dragon or bamboo, with contemporary silhouettes for the modern woman.
How do I care for my Purple Sandalwood and Pearl jewelry?
To maintain the natural luster of the Purple Sandalwood and Freshwater Pearls, we recommend avoiding direct contact with perfumes and chemicals. Gently wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth after wearing to preserve its artisan finish.
