****-Interesting tidbits on Gold Jewelry-****

What Does Gold-Filled Mean?
Gold-filled jewelry is much more valuable than gold-plated. In fact, there is almost 100 percent more gold in gold-filled items than is found in gold-plated items. Just as gold-plated jewelry is plated with gold, gold-filled jewelry is as well, but there is a big difference between the ways these products are made.

Things to Remember: Solid Gold: Pure gold is mixed with alloys to create solid gold with different karat values: 10k having the least amount of gold – 20k having the highest. Gold is very soft, so alloys are added to add strength. Gold Filled: Solid gold is rolled out into a sheet and then applied to a base metal through heat – applying a thick plate of gold. Electroplated Gold: A thin layer of solid gold added to a base metal through the use of electricity, slightly thicker than gold plate. Gold Plate: A thin layer of solid gold added to jewelry, usually in 12K – can be rubbed off easily. Gold Vermeil: A light gilt of gold on a piece of jewelry, usually done with 14k yellow gold on sterling silver.

****-Sterling Silver Jewelry-****

Using silver regularly keeps it tarnish free so take it out of the drawer and use it for a Tuesday night dinner or lazy Sunday lunch just because you can. If you keep it in a sealed environment, it will tarnish less, since it is not exposed to the air. This is why I store my jewelry in zip lock bags.
