- Is the gold tone real gold?
- No. It is a gold-colored plating over base metal, typical of Nine West fashion jewelry. It will not have the weight or lasting finish of solid gold.
- Will the finish tarnish?
- Plated costume jewelry can darken or wear at contact points over time. Keep it away from perfume, lotion and water, and wipe it after wearing to slow that down.
- Are the earrings suitable for sensitive ears?
- The posts are not described as hypoallergenic, and the set uses base metal. If you react to nickel or other metals, this set is a risky choice.
- What occasions does the set suit?
- The polished finish and drop earrings work for workwear, dinners, weddings and holidays. It is dressier than everyday studs but not formal fine jewelry.
- How should I care for the set?
- Store the necklace and earrings separately in a dry pouch, fasten the chain to avoid tangling, and avoid spraying perfume directly on the metal.
