Questions about this piece

Is it solid gold?

Yes. Karat gold options are gold alloy all the way through, not plated or filled.

Will gold tarnish?

Karat gold does not rust, and in normal wear it does not tarnish. Lotion and soap film can dull it; warm water, a drop of mild dish soap, and a soft brush bring the shine back.

Is sterling silver real silver?

Will sterling silver tarnish?
