Is 14k white gold better than gold-plated jewelry?

Yes. The gold runs through the whole piece, so it won't flake or turn your skin green the way plating can. It costs more up front but lasts for years.

Will the cubic zirconia look like a real diamond?

At arm's length, most people won't tell the difference. Up close, CZ has slightly less sparkle and fire than a diamond and can dull over time.

Why does white gold need re-rhodium plating?

White gold is naturally a pale yellow, so it is coated with rhodium for a bright silver look. That coating wears off with wear, and a jeweler can re-plate it.

What chain length is princess length?

Princess length is about 18 inches, which rests at the collarbone. It is the most common necklace length and layers well with shorter chains.

It works well for a birthday or anniversary if the recipient wears delicate gold jewelry. Check whether she prefers yellow or white gold first.

Our take on the Belk & Co 14k White Gold Cubic Zirconia Pendant

A 14k white gold pendant set with cubic zirconia on a princess-length chain, made by Belk & Co. The solid 14k gold is the main draw: it holds up far better than gold-plated or sterling pieces, and the CZ keeps the price well below a diamond version. The white gold is rhodium-plated, so it will need re-plating over time to stay bright. It is a simple, everyday necklace rather than a statement piece.
