The Madelyn Solid Gold Filigree Round keepsake pendant is made entirely of 14k Yellow Gold with intricate enamel detail. This pendant is a heavier weighted design which is elegant and timeless. (For information about 14k Gold please see 'About Solid Gold' further down this page.)
Opening is via a secure and discreet
screw top bail. The bail of this pendant unscrews to allow access for
very precious keepsakes (a lock of hair, soil from a burial site, dried
flowers etc) or a small amount of cremation ashes.

ABOUT SOLID GOLD:
24 karat Gold is 100% pure Gold but this precious metal is rarely used
in its pure form for jewellery because it is very soft. Pure gold is
not durable and scratches and dents very easily. It is the addition of
other metals that produces the different karats, and therefore
variations in colour and hardness.
18k is 18/24s pure gold (or 75% pure gold).
14k is 14/24s pure gold, (or 58.5% pure gold).
10k is 10/24s pure gold, so it is less than half gold (or 41.7% pure gold).
9k is 9/24s pure gold, again less than half gold (or 37.5% pure gold).
To
obtain different karats, pure Gold is blended with a number of metals -
usually a mixture of copper and silver in Yellow Gold and nickel or
palladium in White Gold.
