Yellow Gold Filled Heart Locket with Diamond-Accent. A pendant she will hold close to her heart for years to come, the 14k Yellow Gold Filled Diamond-Accent Heart Locket is sophisticated and elegant in design.
Resting from an 18-inch rolo chain is a classic heart locket pendant crafted in 14k Yellow Gold. The pendant is touched with a small natural white diamond, set around diamond-cut gold which emphasizes the shine and size of the stone.
Worn day after day, this sleek accessory can become a heirloom to be passed down generation to generation. The purity of gold is measured in karats. Pure gold measures 24 karats but is too soft in this state to be used effectively in jewelry. So it is alloyed with other metals--silver, copper, nickel, and zinc--to increase its strength and durability. Common measurements once the alloy is added are 18 karat (75% gold), 14 karat (58%), and 10 karat (47.7%).
In the United States, the legal karat limit for the metal to still be considered gold is 10 karats. A higher karat measurement in gold content indicates a greater value of the jewelry piece. Gold jewelry should always be stamped with the karat mark, either 18k, 750 (European marking for 18k), 14k, 585 (European marking for 14k), or 10k. In addition, to assure its quality, the piece should be stamped with the manufacturer's trademark or country of origin.
