14K Gold Earrings

Our earrings are all made of 14K yellow gold or 14K white gold. The term 14K gold is also known as "585 fineness" in german speaking countries. A 14K gold alloy consists of 58.5% gold. Since pure yellow gold is a very soft material, it would be too soft for jewelry production without combining it with other metals. It must therefore be alloyed with harder metals to be more resistant. The alloy of 14K gold consists of 58.5% yellow gold, 30% silver and 11.5% copper.

Gold Earrings 14k as investment

The price of gold changes regularly due to demand, however, on average, it fluctuates much less than stocks, for example. That is why it is a very popular investment for many people. Gold is a precious metal and therefore has an intrinsic value that it never completely loses. It has established itself as a popular means of payment over thousands of years.

Many people are allergic to certain metals (e.g. nickel) or get inflammations. Therefore, earrings can only be labeled 'hypoallergenic' if their materials do not cause allergies and the jewelry is therefore suitable for allergy sufferers.

Which materials are hypoallergenic?

Materials such as gold, titanium, stainless steel and surgical steel are considered hypoallergenic. However, the color of titanium, stainless steel and surgical steel is silver, which means that when looking for hypoallergenic gold earrings, the only choice is actually yellow gold.

Are all gold earrings hypoallergenic?

Gold earrings are generally tolerated by everyone because of the yellow gold they contain. Hypoallergenic earrings are those with a gold content of 14 Karat or higher; anything below that, such as 9 Karat, contains too little gold to be 100% tolerable and can cause allergies in rare cases. Rosé gold is also not hypoallergenic, as there is a lot of copper in the alloy to achieve the rosé gold color. Copper is not a hypoallergenic material and a high copper content in jewelry can cause allergies.

Our goal is to offer only the highest quality products. This is reflected in both the designs and the choice of material for our earrings. In our collection you will find gold stud earrings, huggies & hoop earrings made of 14K yellow gold and 14K white gold. The style of your hoops can be easily changed by adding earring charms to them, so they match every outfit. Some earrings are set with cubic zirconia crystals and some are made of gold only.
Ear jewelry made of gold has very many advantages over jewelry made of cheap materials. Here you can find some of them:

14k Gold Earrings never lose their value

An important advantage of jewelry made of gold is that it retains its value. The higher the price of gold, the more the gold earrings are worth. Gold never loses its intrinsic value because it is a precious metal.

Highest quality

Another advantage of jewelry made of gold is that it, due to its high quality, never loses its luster. Our 14K gold earrings are scratch resistant and can withstand environmental conditions. Every new item that is added to our collection is thoroughly tested by us beforehand. The closure must function properly to guarantee the longevity of the products. The closure is carefully designed for everyday wear so it will not break or open during the day.
The design of our earrings is carefully thought out to bring out the face. Quality for us means not only offering high quality products, but also providing our customers with a correspondingly high quality customer service, as well as guaranteeing smooth shipping and, above all, fast delivery.

Sustainable

Costume jewelry often breaks after a few weeks or wears out and needs to be replaced. It is made of cheap materials which wear out quickly. Disposing of earrings after such a short time is also harmful to the environment. This is another reason why Lisa Eleni only makes jewelry from gold. Their longevity contributes to sustainability.

Hypoallergenic materials

All of Lisa Eleni's products are hypoallergenic and nickel-free, which means they do not trigger allergies. This makes our 14K gold stud earrings suitable even for freshly pierced piercings.

Finding the right earrings is not always easy. Gold plated earrings are already available at a very low price. In contrast, solid gold earrings are a bit more expensive. Here you will learn the most important differences and then you can decide for yourself what is the best option for you.

14K Gold Earrings

Due to the fact that solid gold has no coating, it is very scratch resistant and retains its luster. It is sturdy and can withstand just about any environmental conditions. Even when showering or swimming, Lisa Eleni's studs and hoop earrings do not need to be removed. 14K Gold earrings are also hypoallergenic, which means that the material does not cause any allergies or inflammation. As a rule, you have gold earrings for a lifetime. A pair of 14K gold hoops also makes the perfect gift for women. Click here to shop our huggies & hoops collection.

Gold plated earrings

Earrings plated with gold are usually made of an inexpensive base material, such as brass, zinc, silver or stainless steel. Only a very thin coating of the surface is made of gold. Because it is only a thin layer of gold, the gold hardly affects the price and earrings plated with gold can be sold cheaply.
Due to friction, water or other environmental influences, the gold layer is worn away over time or gets scratches. Especially when the closure is opened and closed, the gold layer rubs off particularly quickly and the underlying material is revealed.
