- Are these solid 14k gold?
- No. They are 14k gold plated, meaning a thin layer of gold over a base metal. Solid 14k studs cost more but keep their color longer.
- Are they safe for a baby's sensitive ears?
- The base metal under the plating can irritate sensitive skin. If your child has reacted to plated jewelry before, choose nickel-free solid gold or surgical steel instead.
- What backs do they use?
- They are standard stud earrings with push-on backs. Check the backs are tight before each wear, since small backs are a choking risk for babies.
- How do they compare with solid gold baby studs?
- They look similar at first but the plating can thin and dull with daily wear. Solid 14k studs hold their finish and can be passed down.
- How should I care for them?
- Keep them away from water, lotion and perfume, and wipe them after wear. Remove them before baths and swimming to slow the plating wear.
