When you buy 14kt gold, you are buying the market's established standard. It became the dominant choice in the early twentieth century and remains the most widely used gold purity in U.S. fine jewelry manufacturing.
Style Notes
If you have multiple piercings, hoops pair well with studs or other hoops to build a layered ear stack, a popular styling technique that maximizes your jewelry collection.
Elemental Detail
Gold neither oxidizes nor corrodes, and the yellow of 14kt is not an applied finish. It is the color of the metal itself, as permanent as the element it is made from.
