After solid gold options, this is the next best option. It will not flake off or turn your skin green and offers a great option for people with sensitive skin. 14k gold-filled should not tarnish under most circumstances.
How do I clean 14k gold-filled jewelry?
Your silver polishing cloth is all you need to clean any type of jewelry. Simply wipe the cloth over the jewelry to get bright and shiny jewelry again. Taking your jewelry off to shower and apply lotions will help the shine last longer. For jewelry with prongs or pieces with nooks and crannies (like a chain) a soft toothbrush and soapy-water will help.
