- Is 14k rose gold real gold?
- Yes. 14k means 58.5 percent gold alloyed with copper, which gives the pink tone. It is solid gold, not plating, so the color runs through the metal.
- Will a 4mm rope chain hold a pendant?
- Yes, a 4mm rope is sturdy enough for most pendants. Use a bail wide enough to slide over the chain, since rope links are thicker than cable links.
- How does a rope chain compare to a cable chain?
- A rope chain is made of twisted links that look like a spiral, so it has more shine and texture. A cable chain is simpler and lighter. The rope style resists kinking better at this width.
- What does 16 inches fit like?
- Sixteen inches sits at the base of the neck, close to the collarbone. It suits smaller frames and higher necklines. If you want a chain that hangs lower, look for 18 inches or more.
- Does rose gold fade?
- Solid 14k rose gold keeps its color. The copper in the alloy can darken slightly over time, but a soft cloth polish restores the tone. Plated rose gold is the version that wears off.
- What is included with the necklace?
- The chain with its clasp. Check the listing for a box or pouch if you plan to give it as a gift.
