What is 14k Gold-Filled Metal?
14k gold-filled metal is composed of a heavy, solid layer of 14-karat gold mechanically bonded to either brass or sterling silver. While gold-filled metal may be characterized as "plated," it is not the same thing as dipped or electroplated jewelry, which produces a thin layer of gold over a base metal that will eventually peel or wear off. Gold-filled jewelry can be engraved, hammered, and showered in without any negative effect. We use 14k gold-filled metal for many of our pieces as it is the next best thing to solid gold and yields a better price point. If properly taken care of gold-filled jewelry can last a lifetime.
