Gold, diamonds and precious stones have a timeless allure, but they also require special care during the summer.
Beach days, sunshine and travel are part of the season. But are your jewels ready to withstand the heat, water and daily activity? At Maison Roca, we share how to care for them so they always shine like the first day.
Gold – a summer ally with nuances
Gold — whether white, yellow or rose — is a noble, highly resistant metal. Collections from dinh van, MISUI and FRED, crafted in high-quality 18k gold, stand up well to heat and perspiration.



However, saltwater or chlorinated water can affect the finish over time, especially on polished or textured surfaces. The best advice? Remove your jewellery before swimming to maintain its pristine look.
Diamonds: exceptional hardness, essential care
Diamonds are the hardest natural stone in the world, but they can lose brilliance if regularly exposed to sand, sunscreens or seawater.

Messika creations, light and contemporary, are perfect for daily wear, yet they benefit from regular cleaning to keep their sparkle intact.
Precious and semi-precious stones: varying resistance
Each natural gemstone has its own personality:
- Sapphire and ruby are very resistant and suitable for daily wear.
- Turquoise, coral and pearl are more porous and sensitive to saltwater or prolonged sun exposure.

Majoral collections, inspired by the Mediterranean and featuring organic textures, use carefully selected stones. Still, it is best to protect them from sudden temperature changes and prolonged immersion.
Aesthetics as a sign of durability
Brands like FRED and dinh van design pieces with secure clasps, technical cords and ergonomic forms, perfect for an active lifestyle and worry-free holidays.
