Which is better for a child with sensitive skin?

A. It is stated as 100% hypoallergenic with no nickel or brass. B makes no hypoallergenic claim, and 10K gold is alloyed with other metals.

Which ring lasts longer?

B. Solid 10K gold resists tarnish and wear better than sterling silver, and it carries a lifetime manufacturer warranty for defects.

Will the gold ring fit my 3-year-old?

Only if she wears size 3 1/2. B comes in that one size. A comes in sizes 2-5, so you can match her finger more closely.

Is the gold ring worth the extra cost?

If you want a keepsake that will not tarnish and has a lifetime warranty, yes. If you want a low-cost ring for a toddler who will outgrow it, A at $25.00 to $27.00 is the practical pick.

Do both use real birthstones?

No. Both use cubic zirconia, a simulated stone, in a heart shape. Neither uses a genuine gemstone.

Which is better for a baby under 2?

Neither is designed for under 2. A is rated for ages 2-5 and B for ages 2-10, so wait until she is in that range.
