What is Gold-Filled Jewelry?

We have chosen to use 14K gold-filled materials for our jewelry, as it is often referred to as the "Gold of the Future." It offers a cost-effective alternative to solid 14K gold while maintaining high quality and minimizing concerns about discoloration, unlike some plated materials.

How is Gold-Filled Jewelry Made?

Gold-filled jewelry is crafted by heat- and pressure-bonding a thin layer of 14 karat gold to a brass or other base metal core. We prioritize the quality and durability of our jewelry, and this is why we opt for gold-filled over gold-plated or Vermeil. Our gold-filled chains feature an actual layer of karat gold, rather than just a microscopic film, as noted by our chain manufacturer. For a clear comparison of gold quality, please refer to the chart below, ranging from solid gold to gold-filled quality and other options.

What Materials is Your Jewelry Made of?

Our jewelry pieces are meticulously handcrafted using a diverse range of high-quality materials. These materials include 14K gold-filled, 925 sterling silver, semi-precious and precious stones, freshwater pearls, glass, crystals and brass. You can find the specific materials listed under each style on the product detail page.

Is Your Jewelry Hypoallergenic and Nickel-Free?

Absolutely. All our jewelry is certified hypoallergenic and free of nickel and lead.

Advantages of Gold Filled:

Gold Filled jewelry has earned the moniker "Gold of the Future" for good reason. It possesses the same physical characteristics as solid gold, offering beauty, durability, and strength, but at a fraction of the cost. The gold in Gold Filled jewelry is on the outer surface, making it virtually indistinguishable from solid gold, except when it comes to pricing.

Will Gold Filled Jewelry Turn Green?

Rest assured, Gold Filled jewelry is your ideal alternative to solid gold. It is both durable and of high quality, resulting in stunning jewelry that won't turn your skin green or rust. Gold Filled metal is resistant to tarnishing.

Can You Wear Gold-Filled Jewelry in the Shower?

Unlike gold-plated jewelry, it is perfectly safe to get your gold-filled jewelry wet. All our chains at Zac and Ally are made from 14K gold-filled material, making them suitable for wear to bed, in the shower, and even while you exercise. It is also safe to swim in gold-filled jewelry, although we recommend avoiding pools and hot tubs due to the harsh chemicals they contain.

How to Keep Sterling Silver from Turning Color:

Our sterling silver pieces come with a skin-safe, invisible anti-tarnish clear coating. This protective layer safeguards your jewelry from tarnishing, oxidation, and fading. However our factories advise keeping all Sterling Silver in a closed sealed case to prevent any discoloration.

How Long Can Gold-Filled Jewelry Last?

Gold-filled jewelry is designed to last a lifetime if properly cared for.
