14k Gold-filled (GF):
Formerly known as "Rolled Gold"
This wire is made by layering 14k gold over a base material, usually
jeweler's brass.
The layer of gold in 14/20 gold-filled wire is about 100 times thicker than gold plate.
It is a lifetime product for most people. Since everything touching your skin is 14k gold, only people with extreme sensitivity generally have any allergic reactions to this metal, unlike gold-plate.

Sterling Silver (SS):
We also use solid Argentium Sterling Silver wire in our jewelry.
Sterling silver is 92.5% silver with a small amount of other metal to
increase it's strength.
Argentium Silver is a new mix of Silver with Germanium instead of copper. It has the same amount of silver in the mix,
but because of the Germanium, it resists tarnishing.
All of our pendants, bracelets and rings are now made with this silver.
