Is 14k gold-filled right for you?
Is 14k gold-filled right for you?
Gold-filled jewelry is composed of a solid layer of gold which must constitute at least 5% of the item's total weight, mechanically bonded to a base metal.
Our gold-filled stud earrings have a layer of 14k gold on the front and back, with exposed base metal at the edges. They’re a great option for most, but if you have a brass sensitivity, we recommend choosing solid 14k gold instead.

Jewelry Care
Jewelry Care
- Handmade jewelry is built to last with proper care.
- Sterling silver naturally tarnishes over time—this patina is unique to each wearer.
- Tarnishing speed varies based on body chemistry, handling, and environment.
- Follow care tips below based on your jewelry’s finish:
General Care (All Finishes)
- Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, chemicals, and chlorinated water.
- Store jewelry in an airtight container to slow tarnish.
- Remove jewelry before swimming, bathing, or working with harsh products.
Polished, Brushed & Gold (Sterling Silver, Gold-Filled, 14k Solid Gold)
- Tarnish may appear as metal reacts with air and moisture.
- Use a jewelry polishing cloth or dip to clean polished and gold pieces.
- For brushed sterling silver, gently rub with a Scotch-Brite pad to refresh the finish.
Antiqued Sterling Silver
- Finished by hand to create a vintage, well-loved look.
- Easy to maintain—lightly rub with a Scotch-Brite pad if yellowing occurs.
- Avoid polishing cloths and dips to preserve the antiqued effect.
Oxidized Sterling Silver
- This finish mimics natural tarnish, resulting in a rich gunmetal or blackened look.
- Over time, it may become more matte, adding character.
- Do not use polishing cloths or dips—these will remove the oxidized finish.
