What are the benefits of 14K gold filled?
I use gold filled round beads because they provide incredible quality at an affordable price. They are highly durable and will not tarnish or peel. They are water-safe and much more durable than gold-plated or gold-vermeil beads because the gold outer layer is significantly thicker and goes through a more rigorous process.
Gold filled is also nickel-free, and if you do not have a sensitivity to solid gold, you should not have a sensitivity to gold filled jewelry.
In summary, gold filled has the same beautiful color, shine, and durability as solid gold, but is much more affordable.
