Sterling Silver
Sterling silver / 925 is durable and requires minimal care. However, it may darken with exposure to light or chemicals (do not expose to chemicals in pools or hot tubs) but can be polished back to new. Kindly note sterling silver is a metal that will mark up over time on its exposed flat surfaces. Check out our jewelry cleaners here https://suetables.com/search?q=cleaner

Solid Gold
Our current lines feature 10k and 14k gold. They are metals that can last a lifetime. It is important to keep in mind that many of our gold chains are delicate and are not made for rough wear.

Gold-Filled
Gold-filled is similar to gold plating in containing a different base metal. However, the gold is melted/bonded onto the base mechanically for the filled process and requires 5% gold by weight. Thus, the gold coating is much thicker in gold-filled jewelry, improving quality and longevity. Although gold-filled will maintain its gold appearance for a long time, it is important to remember that it can tarnish after time.

Gold Vermeil
Gold Vermeil is a popular type of gold plating with sterling silver as the base metal. Vermeil has a much thicker layer of gold than regular gold plating, making it more hypoallergenic. However, it is important to know that with enough wear and tear is possible for the plating to wear. Thus, it is important not to expose gold vermeil to chemicals such as perfume or chlorine. Keep it out of the water to last much longer.
