What is the difference between your 10k and 14k gold jewelry?Updated 3 days ago
The term "karat" (K) refers to the purity, color, and softness of gold. A higher karat number indicates purer gold. While 10K Sold Gold has a lower purity, it is more durable and less prone to bending. Conversely, 24K Sold Gold is the purest form but also the softest, making it more susceptible to scratching and warping.
Our 14K Gold Plated jewelry is crafted with a base metal of Brass, Sterling Silver, or Stainless Steel. The thickness of the gold plating varies between pieces, typically ranging from 0.4 to 1 microns. Since Gold Plated jewelry is more prone to tarnishing and oxidation, we recommend keeping these pieces away from water, perfume, and cosmetics, and avoiding wearing them during activities that may cause friction or excessive moisture.
10K Solid Gold is just as durable and robust as 14K Gold. Our 10K Solid Gold products are designed to be worn anytime and anywhere – in the shower, at the gym, on a date night – you name it. Unlike our 14K Gold Plated jewelry, our 10K Solid Gold pieces are waterproof.
