ABOUT THE MATERIALS
GOLD FILLED
Gold filled consists of a base metal (usually brass, which is a mixture of copper and zinc) bonded with a layer of karate gold over top. Gold filled is legally required to contain 5% or 1/20 gold by weight. All the gold filled jewelry that we carry is 14k yellow gold filled, with the exception of our 12k gold filled beaded bracelets. Meaning, all the gold that is bonded was 14k solid gold to begin with. This can be described as either 14/20 gold filled, or 14k gold filled.
STERLING SILVER
Our sterling silver contains 92.5% pure silver, and 7.5% copper. Sometimes other compaines will have other metals besides just copper in that 7.5%, ours does not.
GOLD
We use 10K or 14K gold throughout our collections. 10k gold contains 41.7% pure gold and 14k contains 58.3% pure gold. 10k gold is stronger than 14k gold. Other metals have been added to pure gold to strengthen it.
BRONZE
Our bronze is a combination of copper and tin, and is lead free. Bronze is quite durable, but requires a bit more care. Keep your bronze jewelry in a sealed container when not in use. The great thing though is you can use a polishing cloth to bring back the shine.
