• All of our 14K and 10K gold jewelry are genuine and classic style timeless pieces.
• They are beautifully crafted and well designed; properly stamped and hallmarked and made for any occasion.
• All our gold jewelry is made hypoallergenic and nickel-free.
• 99.9 % of pure gold (24k) is a very soft metal. Therefore, gold is usually alloyed with base metals for use in jewelry to increase its hardness, durability, and strength.
• The 14 karat standard has a minimum notation of 585 (58.5% gold), or 14K (14 parts per 24) which is stamped on all of our 14K Gold jewelry.
• The 10 karat standard has a minimum notation of 417 (41.7% gold), which is stamped on all of our 10K Gold jewelry.

Jewelry Wear and Care

• Use a jewelry box. A clean, dry, fabric-lined jewelry box is the best option.
• Store pieces separately, this prevents jewelry from tangling or scratching each other
• Do not wear them when swimming, bathing, or sleeping time. As well as when doing sports.
• Rinse your cubic zirconia jewelry well in a warm water. Don't ever use tissue to wash or dry cubic zirconia.
• Clean your cubic zirconia jewelry at least every two or three months to keep looking its best.
