Frequently Asked Questions About Gold Pendants

Is this pendant suitable for sensitive skin? Yes. This pendant is made from solid gold, which is hypoallergenic and does not contain nickel or other common irritants found in gold plated or gold filled jewellery. It is safe for people with sensitive skin or metal allergies.

What is the difference between nine carat and fourteen carat gold? Nine carat gold contains 37.5 percent pure gold mixed with durable alloy metals. It is harder and more resistant to scratching, making it ideal for everyday wear. Fourteen carat gold contains 58.3 percent pure gold, offering a richer colour and higher gold content while remaining durable enough for daily use. Both options are solid gold and will not tarnish or flake.

Will this pendant tarnish or change colour over time? No. Solid gold does not tarnish, oxidise, or change colour. Unlike gold plated jewellery, which wears away to reveal base metals underneath, this pendant is solid gold throughout. It will maintain its colour and shine for a lifetime with minimal care.

What chain length should I choose? A 40 centimetre chain sits at the base of the neck, just above the collarbone. A 45 centimetre chain sits lower, near the top of the chest. A 50 centimetre chain falls closer to the sternum. For most everyday wear, 45 centimetres is the most popular choice. If you are unsure, select 45 centimetres.

Can I wear this pendant every day? Yes. This pendant and its matching chain are specifically designed for daily wear. Solid gold is durable enough to withstand sleeping, showering, swimming, and exercise. However, to maintain its polish, we recommend removing it during heavy manual labour or contact with harsh chemicals such as bleach or chlorine.

Do you offer returns or exchanges on gold pendants? Yes. We accept returns within 14 days of delivery for a full store credit, provided the pendant and chain are unworn and in their original packaging. Custom pendants are non refundable. Please contact us before returning any item.

How do I clean my gold pendants? Wipe the pendant and chain with a soft, lint free cloth after each wear. For a deeper clean, soak the pendant in warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap for five minutes, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners or ultrasonic machines.
