  • What is the purity of gold ?

    All artwork manufactured and sold by ECOLSON™ as a “gold masterpiece” is manufactured in certified American gold with a purity of minimum 14 karat.

    When gold element (Au) is discovered in nature, it is found pure and undiluted. Pure gold is 24 karat. It is very malleable and makes it inappropriate for jewelry due to its softness. Our fine gold is diluted via man-made process known as “alloying” to make it harder and more resilient to scratches. The 14-karat gold is composed of 58.3% pure gold and 41.7% alloy. This is the most famous option for engagement rings and other wearable jewelry in the United States, the UK and the other Western countries. The 14-karat metal composition offers the best combination of a rich color, more durability and resistance to wear and tears. 

    All Artwork is in solid gold. It has no empty core or surface plating. The exact purity and weight of each masterpiece is specified on its certificate of Authenticity.

    The karat system helps define the purity or fineness of metals used in the manufacturing of jewelry and U.S. federal law requires that all jewelry be stamped with an accompanying hallmark clearly denoting this purity.

  • ECOLSON™ offers unique and numbered solid gold masterpieces. It is an investment on both the Art- and Commodity markets. The live market prices are displayed in our Pricing section. Some customers are buying our artwork because it is a prestigious and beautiful jewelry. However some customers are buying our artwork because they are smart investors, with the mindset that Gold protects against inflation and Art appreciates in value

  • Maintenance :

    • Similar to any jewelry you may own, remove your gold artwork when sleeping, exercising, and engaging in physical activity that could lead to scratches and dents. Avoid allowing your gold artwork from touching each other as they can scratch one another.

    Storage :

    • To best preserve your gold jewelry and prevent scratching, ensure you are storing it separately from other jewelry in its original pouch when not in use. Additionally, secure clasps and closures prior to storing your jewelry to avoid scratches and tangled chains.

    Care :

    • Care for your jewelry on a regular basis by wiping it with a cotton cloth after wear, then store it separately from other jewelry in its original pouch. On occasion, you may find it helpful to soak your jewelry in warm water and mild dish detergent to remove everyday pollutants that could cause your jewelry to appear dull.

  • Does gold tarnish over time ?

    The higher the karat of gold means the less base metals used and the less likely to tarnish. 14-karat gold is the most famous option for engagement rings and other wearable jewelry in the United States, the UK and the other Western countries. The 14-karat metal composition offers the best combination of a rich color, more durability and resistance to wear and tears. 14-karat gold may see little tarnishing over time, if any at all. To preserve the luster of your gold jewelry, avoid exposure to household bleach and other cleaning products.
