Hot take: not all gold jewelry is made the same. Our friends at Love Weld broke down the different types of gold used in jewelry for us, because they know you want your jewelry to last!⁠
⁠
✨ Solid Gold: This is the highest quality, with gold throughout the entire piece. It's durable, resists tarnishing, and is perfect for everyday wear.⁠
⁠
✨ Gold-Filled: This is a more affordable option than solid gold, with a thicker layer of gold bonded to a base metal core. It's more durable than gold-plated jewelry.⁠
⁠
✨ Gold-Plated: This has a thin layer of gold over a base metal. It's the most budget-friendly option, but it's also the least durable.⁠
