Gold Bonded Jewelry
Gold-bonded jewelry has a layer of 14K gold bonded onto a core of .925 sterling silver. It gives the look of a gold piece while the sterling silver core keeps the piece substantial. It is a different product from solid gold: the gold is a surface layer, so with regular wear it can wear thin over time and cannot be refinished the way solid gold can. We label gold-bonded pieces clearly so you always know what you are buying. My Jewelry Connect is a veteran-owned Miami jeweler that buys direct from the jewelry district. If you want gold all the way through, see our solid gold chains.
