Handmade 12k Gold Filled delicate earrings are simple, lightweight, shiny and great for everyday wear. Each earring is wrapped in a fine 12k gold filled wire in 2 small sections for added element to each earring. LENGTH: 1 inch long.

Note:  Gold filled- despite how it sounds, gold-filled metal is not actually filled with gold. “Gold-filled” is simply an age-old term that became accepted in the jewelry industry. Today, gold-filled is a quality designation that’s regulated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). To merit a “GF” stamp, the material must have a layer of gold that is at least 10-karat mechanically applied to a base metal; the karat gold layer must also be at least 1/20 (5%) of the item’s total weight. All of Rio Grande’s gold-filled products have a 12-karat or a 14-karat gold layer and meet the federal quality standards established by the FTC.
