MORNING GLORY (ER 05/07-443) S$45 SOLD

.
These lovely powdery blue stones are faceted chalcedony rondells. Looking very much like the morning glory flower sprouting along fine tendrils, I've attached the chain to a 14k goldplated hoop. Except for the earwires which are goldfilled, all other accents are 14k goldplated.

JUST A LITTLE NOTE - When I indicate 14k goldplated, thats exactly what I mean, the base metal has a light coating of 14k gold. This has a nice quality finish and should not tarnish under normal circumstances. This is way different from 14k or 22k gold or goldfilled which is usually silver based and undergoes many processes of goldplating and has a hardier finish and can be worn 24/7 without fading or tarnishing. There is a very simple way to keep them looking new and I'll share this with any of you who have purchased my pieces.

I think it is prudent to be honest and not try to pass of goldplating as gold or goldfilled. The truth rubs off - heehee! pun (not) intended
