Please note, I do not put a purity stamp on these 14k gold ear wires. Due to how thin ear wires are, the purity stamp would distort the ear wire and look more like a blemish or scratch. If you would still prefer a purity stamp. let me know during check out and I will be more than happy to stamp it for you.

This listing is for 1 pair of 14k Palladium white gold earring hooks.


Features of Palladium White Gold:
Palladium White Gold is made by combining pure gold with Palladium. Palladium is part of the platinum group of metals. This alloy does not contain any nickel. Palladium white gold has a captivating light-gray color, and is a fantastic alternative for those who are sensitive to nickel (which is what gives white gold it's color. Sometimes white gold has rhodium plating and helps avoid allergies, but it tends to wear off and needs to be re-dipped).

If you have any questions regarding Palladium White Gold, please feel free to reach out. I would be more than happy to answer them.

Understanding the difference between Solid Gold, Gold Filled, and Gold Plated.

✨ Solid Gold: Gold in its most pure form is 24K, which is very soft, scratches easily, and is almost impossible to work with. Because of this, alloys are added to create a more structurally sound metal known as “solid gold” and comes in the form of 10K, 14K, and 18K. Karats (K) is the percentage of gold in the piece. 10K is made using 10 parts pure gold, 14 parts alloys. 14k is made using 14 parts pure gold, 10 parts alloys. 18K is made using 18 parts pure gold, 6 parts alloys. Most common alloys include; copper, silver, zinc, palladium...

✨ Gold filled is made by using heat and pressure to fuse a thin layer of solid gold onto a base metal which is usually brass. Over time, that thin layer can wear off and tarnish. It’s not meant for everyday wear and should be taken off before showering and sleeping at night. It’s a cheaper alternative to solid gold but will not last as long. Those with allergies can typically wear gold filled but as time goes on and the gold slowly begins to rub off you will be exposed to the base metals.

✨ Gold plated is an even thinner layer of solid gold that is electroplated onto brass, copper, nickel, or any other base metal layer. While pretty when brand new, the gold base layer will wear off and tarnish much quicker than gold filled. This is typically used for costume jewelry and is not recommended for everyday wear or for those with allergies.
