High quality 14K Goldfilled material is used throughout the process. Gold filled wire is composed of a thick solid layer of gold bonded with heat and pressure to a core base metal and by law this layer of gold must be at least 1/20th (5%) by weight of the total product.
It is not to be confused with Gold plated which contains only a tiny minuscule layer of gold (estimated to be 0.05% or less of the total metal). Gold filled jewellery looks and lasts like solid gold because its outer surface is actually 14K solid gold. Everything you can see and touch is 14K pure gold.
Also, Please note that all of our Gold filled jewellery are nickel-free and in compliance with EU regulation EN1811:2011.
Argentium® Silver: Made with a touch of germanium, Argentium® Silver is a recent development of the sterling silver alloy and was invented by Master Silversmith, Peter Johns at Middlesex University, London.
Argentium® Silver is naturally stronger and more durable than sterling silver.
It presents a brighter and whiter color than any other precious metal thanks to Argentium® Silver’s unique formulation which enhances the appearance of the silver.
Argentium® Silver’s color is closer to fine silver than traditional sterling, yet it is extremely slow to tarnish under most conditions.
And with 93.5% pure silver, Argentium® exceeds the legal standard to be quality-marked as sterling silver (92.5%).
It is also ideal for those with sensitive skin as it has less copper in the surface and no nickel content, resulting in hypoallergenic and anti-bacterial properties.
And last but not least, Argentium® Silver is produced using ethically sourced silver.
Care instructions:
We recommend that you handle and wear your jewellery with care at all times.
This design is made from a dainty chain and a single semi-rigid jeweller wire which has been work hardened: your necklace is therefore sturdy enough for everyday wear.
Shaped freehand, this delicate pendant does have some flexibility, as a result we suggest that you do not wear it whilst bathing, sleeping or during sporting activities.
