It's an abbreviation for 14K Gold Filled, a material made by heat- and pressure-bonding a 14-karat gold layer to brass. Because the 14-karat gold layer makes up more than 1/20th of the total weight, it's less likely to peel off like plating, making it attractive for long-term use. It's also said to be less likely to cause metal allergies. (Please note that individual reactions may vary.) ✦ Care instructions It is recommended to wipe off any dirt after use and store the earrings. Handle them gently as they are delicately made. Some natural stones are sensitive to water, and some are vulnerable to impact from dropping. It is recommended to research the specific natural stone before use. (Not only will you learn about precautions, but you can also discover the stone's symbolism and properties, which I always enjoy researching myself.) #Opal #EthiopianOpal #PlayOfColor #Expo #14kgf #NaturalStone #NaturalStoneEarrings #14kgfEarrings #Handmade #Accessories
