What kind of gold is used in YanaYa jewelry?
YanaYa jewelry is handcrafted with 14k gold-filled wire. This material is created by mechanically bonding a thick layer of real gold to a base metal core. It contains at least 5% gold by weight.
The technique allows for a cost-effective and stronger alternative to solid gold jewelry. Compared to gold-plated options, gold-filled jewelry is more durable. With proper care, your jewelry will last a long time without tarnishing.
Where is YanaYa jewelry produced?
All YanaYa jewelry is handcrafted in Seattle, WA.
