The pendant measures 1 x 1.8 cm and combines a faceted clear stone with a hand-finished rough texture. The textured finish catches light differently depending on the angle, giving the necklace a lively expression. The chain is adjustable between 41 and 46 cm via a 5 cm extender, making it suitable for both high and low necklines.
Goio Galore crafts jewelry from genuine 925 Sterling silver, which is then plated with 18k gold. This process ensures durability and a warm golden tone that lasts significantly longer than typical gold-plated fashion jewelry. The clear stone is hand-set, and the rough surface is intentionally irregular – no two pendants are exactly alike.
Care and maintenance
Avoid contact with perfume, hand cream, and chlorinated water, as these can wear down the gold plating. Store the necklace in a closed jewelry box or pouch, separate from other pieces to prevent scratches. Gently wipe with a soft cloth after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 925 Sterling silver and regular gold-plated jewelry?
925 Sterling silver consists of 92.5% pure silver and is a genuine precious metal alloy. When plated with 18k gold, you get a solid piece with a gold tone that lasts significantly longer than fashion jewelry made of brass or zinc with thin gold plating. The Forta necklace features a thicker gold layer that withstands daily wear better.
How do I clean a gold-plated silver necklace without damaging the plating?
Never use silver polish or harsh chemicals on gold-plated jewelry. Instead, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth after wearing. If the necklace becomes dull, you can use a special polishing cloth designed for gold-plated jewelry – never regular silver polish.
Can I wear the Forta necklace in the shower or while swimming?
No, always remove the necklace before showering, swimming, or exercising. Water, soap, chlorinated water, and sweat accelerate the breakdown of the gold plating and can eventually make the jewelry look dull or discolored. Removing it in moist environments significantly extends its lifespan.
Is the Forta necklace a good birthday gift for my friend?
Yes, the Forta necklace makes a great gift for women who prefer subtle yet detailed jewelry. The square pendant is modern without being trendy, and the adjustable length fits most. The warm golden tone is feminine, and the combination of the clear stone and rough texture makes it visually interesting without being flashy.
Will wearing gold-plated silver turn my neck green?
No, not with genuine 925 Sterling silver as the base. Green discoloration typically occurs with cheap fashion jewelry made from brass or copper. Sterling silver is hypoallergenic and does not react with the skin in the same way. If the gold plating wears off over time, you will see the underlying silver – not green skin.
