What is 14k GF?

Many of our Gemstone Collection gold pieces contain high quality 14k gold filled components as described in the listings. Why gold filled? The 14k gold filled chains and clasps in our shop are sourced from highly reputable U.S.A. Vendors and have a significantly higher percentage of gold than gold plating. With proper care, as with any fine jewelry, it should never easily tarnish or rub off. Please do not wear it in hot tubs or swimming pools as the chemicals used can discolor any gold. 14k Gold filled offers the same beauty as full 14k gold, but at a fraction of the cost.

What is Argentium Silver?

Many of our silver gemstone pieces (as described in the listings) contain a superior 935 silver, Argentium® Silver which is a bright-white color that is closer to fine silver than traditional sterling. Argentium® Silver Is less likely to tarnish under most conditions and maintains its beauty longer than typical silver. It is purer than Sterling (935 or 960), has a whiter color, antibacterial and hypoallergenic properties. It is suitable for those who are unable to wear traditional sterling silver. All of these benefits make Argentium Silver better for the end wearer and gentler on the environment, as less chemicals are used in production. (Per Argentium.com.) You should care for these pieces as you would other fine silver jewelry. Do not expose them to chemicals, hot tubs and swimming pools.
