Selected for Beauty and Durability
Gold Filled
Gold filled has an appearance very similar to solid gold. It is created by using heat and pressure to permanently bond a thick layer of gold to a core of jeweler's brass.
The finish on gold filled jewelry is highly durable. The gold layer is 100 times thicker than the finish on gold-plated items, and it will not chip or fade the way gold plated items can. With proper care, gold filled will last just as long as solid gold.
Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is a classic choice for jewelry that is meant to last a lifetime. The 92.5% pure silver content creates a bright luster, and gives sterling silver its hypoallergenic properties. Avoid exposing sterling silver to moisture, as this can cause the metal to tarnish. Sterling silver is easy to clean and maintain – use a jewelry polishing cloth to restore shine as necessary.
Bronze
Bronze is one of the hardest and strongest metals human civilization has produced. It has been used in jewelry making for thousands of years. Bronze jewelry is resistant to corrosion, and is relatively low maintenance. A patina can form naturally over time, creating a vintage, aged look that some people enjoy. For those who prefer a shinier appearance, a gentle polish will restore luster.
