14KT solid gold is the perfect metal for piercing jewelry. It's strong, durable & nickel-free. Perfect for sensitive skin & can be worn everyday without tarnishing or oxidizing. While solid gold last a lifetime, it does require care to maintain its shine.
To maintain the shine, first immerse your pieces in a warm water to dislodge any build up. Then gently clean it with a soft-bristled brush or toothbrush using warm water and detergent-free soap. Do not use abrasives. Second, wipe dry & clean them with a jewelry polish cloth. Store jewelry neatly in a cool, dry place, preferably in individual air tight pouches. Good as new!
