Gold-Filled jewelry is made by chemically bonding layers of Solid Gold (14K) around a base metal. Unlike Gold Plated jewelry, Gold-Filled jewelry actually has a measurable amount of gold in it. The process of bonding the solid gold creates jewelry that does not tarnish, peel, chip or discolor. With proper care, Gold-Filled jewelry can last for many years. Simply clean your jewelry often with Dawn Dish Soap™ & water to keep them sparkly & to extend the life of your jewels.

Gold Filled jewelry is safe & hypoallergenic. Please be cautious if you have an allergy to brass as our Gold-Filled jewelry still contains this metal & your skin may have a reaction.

Though our Gold Filled pieces are long lasting, we still do not recommend the jewelry coming in direct contact with lotions, oils, perfumes, or ocean/pool water. This can dull your pieces & reduce their shine. We recommend your jewelry be the last thing you put on when heading out. Clean your jewelry more frequently if you live a more active lifestyle.

Over time, as silver is exposed to air & chemicals, a chemical reaction occurs that gives Sterling Silver a black tarnish. Make-up, sweat, acidity, chlorine, perfume, lotion or sunscreen can contribute to this reaction.

Your jewelry is not destroyed, but instead it just needs regular cleaning to keep up the shine & longevity of your Sterling Silver. To clean Sterling Silver, simply use a silver jewelry cleaner with a soft cloth to buff off the dirt & tarnish, then rinse your jewelry in warm water & dry it.

Solid Gold Jewelry is made entirely of gold, inside & out. It is the highest priced jewelry due to the purity of the gold. It is an investment piece that will retain its value over time. Solid Gold will not tarnish or fade over the years, requiring little maintenance. To clean the jewels, simply brush the jewelry with water and Dawn Dish Soap™. Afterwards, dry the jewelry with a cleaning cloth or paper towel.

When it gets HOT or your pH levels change, you might notice a dark ring on your skin. This is a totally normal chemical reaction, which occurs when chemicals touch the metal, causing reaction to its environment. Make-up, sweat, acidity, chlorine, perfume, lotion or sunscreen can contribute to the dark ring transfer. We can't control what you put in or on your body. It's simply science, it has nothing to do with the quality of jewelry. It can easily be wiped off with a make-up wipe or alcohol wipe. This dark ring doesn't mean the chain is tarnishing, instead tarnishing occurs when the base metal is showing - presenting in a pink color. We know this dark ring can be bothersome but it's an easy fix.
