Are these real solid gold chains?

Yes. Every chain is real solid gold, made in 10K or 14K (with select styles in 18K) and stamped with the appropriate karat hallmark. There is no plating, no bonding, and no fillers. The listed weight reflects the actual gold in the chain.

Why does solid gold cost what it costs?

Solid gold pricing is driven by real gold weight, purity, and construction—not just appearance.

Our prices are based on:

• Gold priced by the gram, which fluctuates daily
  
• Karat purity (higher karat = more gold content)
  
• Construction type (fully solid vs hollow)
  
• Crafting, finishing, and quality control
  
• Lifetime warranty and long-term support
  

Two chains with the same width can be priced very differently depending on how much gold they contain.

Why is this chain more expensive than other “gold” chains online?

Not all “gold” chains are the same. Most price confusion comes from comparing non-equivalent products.

Do you offer both solid and hollow solid gold chains?

Yes. We offer fully solid and hollow solid gold chains, and each product is clearly labeled by construction, karat, and weight.

• Fully solid gold chains contain gold throughout, weigh more, and hold their shape and value better over time.
  
• Hollow solid gold chains use gold walls with an internal cavity, weigh less, and cost less while still being real gold.

Why do two chains with the same width cost different amounts?

Gold value lives in weight × purity. Width alone (millimeters) does not determine how much gold is used.

Example:

• 2.5mm hollow chain: ~4–5g
  
• 2.5mm solid chain: ~8–9g
  

Same width. Double the gold.

One dents more easily. One is built to last.

10K vs 14K vs 18K — what’s the difference?

• 10K gold: Tougher and slightly lighter in color; ideal for everyday wear.
  
• 14K gold: Richer tone with an excellent balance of shine and durability.
  
• 18K gold: Deepest gold color with a softer, more premium feel.
  

Choose based on the look, durability, and budget you prefer.

Will solid gold tarnish or fade?

Solid gold will not flake, peel, or wear off like plated jewelry. Over time, it may develop a light patina from daily wear. A soft cloth or gentle jewelry cleaner will restore its shine.

Are these hypoallergenic?

Yes. 10K and 14K yellow gold alloys are skin-friendly and suitable for everyday wear for most people.

Can I shower, work out, or swim with it?

Yes. Solid gold is designed for daily life, including showering, workouts, and swimming. For longevity, we recommend rinsing after exposure to chlorine or salt water.
