Moonglow & Our Jewelry
What is Moonglow?
Moonglow is jewelry that captures the exact moon from the date of your choice — a birthday, anniversary, the day you met, or any moment that matters. Every piece is designed so you can wear that meaningful memory every day. Whether it’s a necklace, bracelet, or ring, your Moonglow turns life’s most precious moments into something you can carry close to your heart.
Does Moonglow glow in the dark?
Yes! Each lunar charm is made to absorb light during the day and emit a soft, gentle glow at night. It’s a beautiful reminder that even in darker times, your special moment can still shine.
Are your moon phases accurate?
Yes. We use precise astronomical data to show how the moon actually appeared to the naked eye on your chosen date. Small differences (usually 1–3% illumination) can occur due to time zones or data sources, but we always prioritize what would have been visible in real life. Your jewelry reflects Moonglow’s artistic and meaningful interpretation of that exact moment.
Why does my date sometimes show a New Moon instead of a small crescent?
With very low illumination (1–3%), a thin crescent is often invisible to the human eye and would be too small to glow. We intentionally design the charm so the moon phase can still shine beautifully in the dark — that’s the heart of what makes Moonglow special.
How does Moonglow wear over time?
Your piece is hand-finished with care using high-quality metals, genuine gemstones, and Swarovski crystals. Like any cherished jewelry, it may develop a natural patina over the years. With proper care (see our care section below), it will continue to glow and carry your memory beautifully for years to come.
Do you sell Moonglow in stores?
Yes! Moonglow is available in over 500 retail locations across North America, Europe, and Australia. Visit our Store Locator to find a retailer near you.
I have allergies, is it okay to wear Moonglow?
All Moonglow pieces are lead- and nickel-free. If you have sensitivities to other metals, simply reply to [email protected] with the styles you like and the metals you avoid. We’re happy to help you find the perfect match.
Product Care & Maintenance
How do I clean and care for my Moonglow jewelry?
Gently wipe your piece with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear. For deeper cleaning, use warm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, or jewelry dips. Always remove your Moonglow before swimming in pools, hot tubs, or the ocean when possible, and pat it dry if it gets wet. Store it in its original pouch or a soft jewelry box to keep the glow bright and the metal protected.
How long does the glow last and how do I recharge it?
The glow lasts several hours after being exposed to light. The more natural or bright light it absorbs during the day, the stronger and longer the glow will be at night. Simply place it near a window or lamp for a few hours to “recharge.”
Ordering & Customization
Can I preview my moon phase before ordering?
Yes! On the product page, enter your date and you’ll see an accurate preview of the moon phase that will appear on your jewelry. We encourage you to take a moment to make sure it feels right before adding to cart.
What sizing options do you offer for rings and bracelets?
Rings are available in standard U.S. sizes 5–9. Some rings may be adjustable. Bracelets come in adjustable or fixed lengths — most are 6.5–7.5 inches and can be gently resized by a local jeweler if needed. Exact sizing is shown on each product page.
Do you offer engraving or personalization?
Yes! Many styles can be engraved on the back or inside with a name, date, or short message. Engraving options and character limits appear during checkout. Engraved or personalized items are final sale unless defective.
What if the moon phase on my jewelry looks different than I expected?
Because we show the moon exactly as it appeared to the naked eye on your date, it may look slightly different from apps or scientific images. If you’re ever unsure, we’re just an email away and happy to help you understand or explore other date options.
