From its discovery Gold has been acknowledge as an element of wealth and power. Nowadays it still makes the same statement, we could mention as an example the World Cup trophy entirely made of gold which is considered like a dream, something that no one can reach.
Gold is a dense, lustrous, yellow, malleable precious metal which is known as indestructible. Gold has been discovered in the prehistoric time and was probably the first metal used by humans. It was since dedicated to create jewellery, coins or reserve asset. It is usually found in the form of dust, flakes or nuggets.
As gold is a relatively soft metal, it is often hardened by alloying with copper, silver or other metal. The gold content of an alloy is measured in carats, a carat being 1/24 part by weight of the total mass, pure gold is consequently 24 carats fine.
Gold earrings are declined in several shapes like clip earrings or chandelier earrings and the price of gold jewellery fluctuates considering the type of earrings you choose. Gold is valued by the weight so a heavy piece will be more expensive than a lighter one, also special finishes as matte or sandblasted can be costly.
Like every other piece of jewellery gold needs to be care of so if you notice that your pair of gold earrings is not scintillating anymore, you will have to clean it. Put your earrings in a bowl of warm water, add a drop of mild detergent and gently brush them finish the process by patting gently the jewellery with a soft cloth. Store them separately to parry against frictions. Once they are clean, avoid contact with dirt and perfumes, take your gold earrings off at night and store them in a soft bag.
