1/20 14K Gold Filled
1/20 14K GOLD FILLED
REAL GOLD. BUILT FOR EVERYDAY WEAR.
At DOC Company, we work with 1/20 14K Gold Filled, including selected pieces made over 925 Sterling Silver.
Gold Filled is not conventional thin gold plating.
A substantial layer of real 14K gold alloy is mechanically bonded to the metal underneath, creating a durable gold exterior designed for regular wear.
1/20 14K GF OVER 925 SILVER
REAL 14K GOLD ALLOY OUTSIDE. REAL 925 SILVER INSIDE.
Our selected 1/20 14K GF over 925 Sterling Silver pieces combine two precious-metal materials:
925 STERLING SILVER
92.5% real silver forming the underlying precious-metal base.
1/20 14K GOLD FILLED
The 14K gold-filled portion represents 1/20 — 5% — of the metal weight of the piece under the 1/20 designation.
1/20 = 5% 14K GOLD ALLOY BY METAL WEIGHT
And that gold alloy is:
14K = 58.5% PURE GOLD
So you're getting a substantial mechanically bonded 14K gold alloy exterior over a real 925 Sterling Silver base.
REAL 14K GOLD ALLOY OUTSIDE.
