Gold filled ear wires and components are not actually gold filled but is coated in a layer of gold. Gold-filled pieces are composed of solid layers of gold (typically constituting at least 5% of the item's total weight) mechanically bonded to a base metal, in this case brass. This layer is much thicker than gold plating, resulting in a durable, long-lasting product that looks has the appearance solid gold. Under normal wearing conditions and with proper care, your gold-filled jewellery should last at 10 to 30 years. Gold-Filled jewellery can also be worn by people with sensitive skin.
