Frequently Asked Questions

What Are the Different Types of Gold Necklaces?

There are three main types of gold necklaces: solid gold, gold filled and gold plated. Solid gold necklaces are made entirely with gold, making them less prone to tarnish. Gold filled necklaces are covered with solid gold and contain a brass base metal. To qualify as gold filled jewellery, the necklace needs a minimum of 5% solid gold of the weight of the jewellery price. Gold plated jewellery consists of a thin outer coating of gold, just covering the base metal. 

How Do I Take Care of My Solid Gold Necklace?

Your solid gold necklace won’t require intensive care; however, it is important to clean it for an everlasting wear and shine. It is recommended that you put your solid gold necklace on last when you are getting ready for the day, as this prevents it from being exposed to chemicals from makeup and perfume. Make sure to store your solid gold necklace separately from other jewellery to prevent it from tangling. Using a solid gold jewellery cleanser every few weeks will keep your solid gold necklace looking shiny.

Are Solid Gold Necklaces Durable?

Solid gold necklaces are very durable, making them great for everyday wear. In fact, solid gold is the most durable type of gold necklace!
