The gold you see in the jewelry is not always true that sellers can be said. It takes a certain amount of carats to consider that a jewel is really made of gold. If you want to know if a particular gem that you have is gold, rather than visit a specialist who will charge you the service you can use the following techniques.

1) We have all seen the ads touting “SOLID 14K GOLD.” However, this is simply not true as there exists no such jewelry item containing solid 14k gold. Solid gold is as it exists when mined from the earth in an exceptionally pure form. It’s entire make up is simply pure gold-or as defined in the modern world; 24 karat gold.

To attain the level of 14k gold, the chemist must dilute the pure 24k (1,000%) gold with a ‘specification alloy’ of approximately 415%. According to all worldwide acceptable standards- the pure gold has now been reduced to 14k gold, or in many countries .585 gold.

Following this formula, 18k gold must contain 750% pure gold, 250% alloy.

2) “Why did my brand new, solid 14k gold ring turn my finger green? My other 14k gold rings wear fine and are no problem.”

There are two MAIN areas in which this problem can occur. Neither one is very nice. One, the ring may have a hallmark inside the shank indicating 14k, but could be anything but…The Jewelers Board of Trade, and the U.S. Customs Service are overwhelmed and undermanned and there is far too much fraud being perpetrated upon an unsuspecting purchaser by dishonest jewelers. Too many known instances whereupon the gold content is very, very low wherein the percentage of alloy simply overwhelms the gold content-thereby making such a “green finger” reaction possible.

Coral is not a mineral but a hard calcareous substance consisting of the continuous skeleton secreted by many tribes of marine coelenterate polyps for their support and habitation. It is found growing plant-like on the sea-bottom. With pollution on the rise everywhere it is becoming increasingly rare, to the extent that even the most prized, the Mediterranean coral, is threatened with extinction.

Coral was very popular until a few years ago, but has now become too expensive for most pockets. Its increasing rarity does. however, make it a good long-term investment. You would be wise to buy Italian coral rather than specimens from the Far East, which have often been adulterated.

The best corals are generally considered to be those of a deep rose red colour, though some jewelers would tend to disagree. Understandably so, when it is almost impossible to find more than one or two necklaces of this shade in a hundred ! As regards white and pink varieties, choose without hesitation the colour known as “angel’s skin”.

Weight-wise, coral is worth more on today’s market than gold, which is why it is such a sound investment provided, and I stress this, it is of the best quality. The finest specimens come from Sardinia and Tunisia; larger, less fine ones from Japan and China.

Coral is cut en cabochon or used for beads and sometimes small carvings. Beware of imitations, such as coloured shell or bone.

The earliest known gold jewelry made in the Americas has been discovered in southern Peru.

The gold necklace, made nearly 4,000 years ago, was found in a burial site.

Archaeologist Eugenia Zevallos showed the necklace to journalists.

“This finding is very important for Peru and the whole of South America. It’s a gold necklace, made of gold beads laminated with turquoise…It’s from 4,500 BC so it’s 6,500 years old.”

Researchers say the necklace suggests someone at the time already had the time and knowledge to make this ornament. This is a completely shock to researchers because people living in this region at the time were found primarily hunter-gatherers.

There is no evidence at the site that shows how it was made.
