Gold-filled is legally required to contain 5% or 1\/20 gold by weight. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGold-filled items are generally considered lifetime products, and the gold layer will not wear off, as it will in gold plated products including gold vermeil. Because of the lower gold content, gold-plated items are generally less expensive than similar gold-filled products.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e===========================================================\u003cbr\u003ePEARL\u003cbr\u003ePeople of many nations have treasured pearls for thousands of years. The Romans valued pearls so highly, they created a law forbidding anyone except people of high rank, from wearing them. European explorers in the New World found many tribes of Indians in North and South America wearing pearl adornments. In 1579, King Philip II of Spain received a pearl from his representatives in Panama that weighed 1250 grains. Julius Caesar was also a great admirer of pearls and gave one as a gift that was worth $150,000. Pearl is one gem that does not come from the earth. It is a gem that forms in mollusks (clams, oysters, mussels and such), which can be found in fresh and saltwater. Pearls are formed when some sort of small foreign body, such as a grain of sand, or a small parasite, gets inside the mollusk and layers of pearly material form around it as a natural defense against these irritants. In a true pearl (not cultured) the layers build up like the layers of an onion, in concentric circles. Light-reflecting from these overlapping layers creates a characteristic iridescent luster, also known as the orient of pearl. The older the pearl is, the more numerous the layers are, and the larger the pearl is.\u003cbr\u003e====================================================================================================================================================================================\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAMETHYST\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmethyst healing properties are as plentiful as the stone itself. It is thought of mostly as a protective stone. As it is linked to the crown chakra, it is helpful in purifying the mind and clearing it of negative thoughts. This includes the negativity of stress and anxiety, which is why many meditate with amethyst so as to rid themselves of that darkness. Amethyst healing properties are especially useful in regards to work-related stress because the stone is also associated with abundance; therefore relieving stress while emanating prosperity. The amethyst properties which facilitate intuition and communication can also be applied to increased work effectiveness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterials: 18K Gold Filled Chain,Fresh Water Pearl,Antique Brass wire,Amethyst Bead\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnly 1 available","brand":"ANNANAdesign","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47592013398270,"sku":null,"price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/2079\/6926\/files\/il_fullxfull.2115930573_6n5d.jpg?v=1765088221","url":"https:\/\/annanadesign.com\/products\/fresh-water-baroque-pearl-and-amethyst-on-gold-filled-rolo-chain","provider":"ANNANAdesign","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
