Glad you asked. Gold-filled is like the overachiever of the jewelry world—it's a thick layer of real 14k gold (not just a little sprinkle) chemically bonded to a base metal like brass or sterling silver. It’s way more durable than gold-plated, won’t flake off, and gives you the luxe look without the wild price tag.

No green skin here. Gold-filled is made to last and safe for most sensitive babes. Just treat it with love and it’ll love you back for years.

Not exactly—but it’s the next best thing. Solid gold is all gold, all the way through. Gold-filled gives you the same shine and feel for a fraction of the cost. Win-win.

Technically, yes—but let’s be real. If you accidentally wear your necklace to hot yoga because you thought it was just “gentle stretching” and suddenly you’re dripping in downward dog... she’ll survive, but she might need a little post-workout refresh. 😅
