Gold Filled

14k Gold Filled is a federally regulated amount of 14k gold (5%) bonded to a base of metal, usually brass. Gold filled offers all the same physical characteristics of solid gold, such as beauty, strength and durability, but at a fraction of the cost. Gold filled will not tarnish or discolor your skin; it is the next best thing to solid gold. It contains no nickel and is considered hypoallergenic. With reasonable care, it will last a lifetime. 

Cleaning

All sterling and gold filled items can be cleaned with a polishing cloth or jewelry cleaner. For tarnish-free jewelry store in a small plastic bag. For tangle-free necklaces, leave a little bit of the chain outside the plastic baggie.
