Paperclip Chains The Paperclip Link Chain is a trendy design made from authentic 14k gold. The rounded rectangular-shaped links resemble a paperclip and are offset, creating a whole link chain.

Why A Paperclip Chain? - Highly popular contemporary look - High-Quality - Can be layered with other chains - Perfect when you pair the necklace with a bracelet Yellow vs White vs Rose Gold The most common color of gold for jewelry is its natural shade of yellow, though, white and rose gold are also common. White gold is an alloy of yellow gold and a white metal such as silver, palladium, or platinum. Sometimes white gold is plated with rhodium to give it an even brighter appearance. Rose gold, sometimes called red or pink gold, is a gold-copper alloy which gives it a reddish hue. Differences Between 10K and 14K Gold jewelry is most commonly made in 10K and 14K alloys, due to pure gold (24K) being too soft for jewelry. Pure 24k gold is prone to denting, scratching, and bending making it unpractical for everyday wear. 14K gold is composed of 58.33% gold, while 10k is 41.67% gold. The other metals that can comprise a 10k or 14k gold chain are metals such as zinc, nickel or copper which give the gold more strength. 10K gold is 41.7% pure gold and 58.3% alloy, making 10K gold the strongest variety Care of Gold With a little care and maintenance, gold can last a lifetime. While cleaning some precautions need to be taken. Gold can be tarnished with harsh cleaning chemicals like vinegar or chlorine bleach. Gloves should be worn to protect both gold and skin. Gold jewelry should not be worn in swimming pools or spas as chlorine may also be present. To clean gold jewelry, mix a few drops of a mild dish detergent in a bowl of warm, but not hot, water. After soaking for a few minutes, brush with a soft bristle brush and buff dry with a polishing cloth. We have a passion for jewelry and all things Bling!
