I get questions daily about jewelry. I'm making these videos to help answer those questions. I received an email this morning regarding 10kt gold. I wanted to take the time to discuss 10kt gold vs 14kt gold. I use 14kt gold for all my pieces as well as chains. I always recommend 14kt gold and up. Check the video out and subscribe for more jewelry videos. Thank you for watching. Follow me on Instagram: @jacojefinejewelry

I ended up with a 10k chain to wear everyday solely because of my line of work. Two of my coworkers have had 14k and up chains and bracelets get scratches and break. My 10k chain has been caught on similar things and hasn't had the same issues. I will say that 14k is a better investment and for looks down the road as they age. But, for me, the durability from 10k can't be beat, just take care of it and it will shine for years and years.

Carlos Sepulveda no because 10k still has pure gold in it and that’s what matters, it’s like coke and if you wanna increase volume but keep the price low you just add cheaper shit to it and same with gold. You can have a 20k thin necklace or you can beef it up and add some alloys to turn the gold into 10-14k

I have a 10k 22in 5mm yellow gold figaro chain and I can tell you that it’s totally worth it bc of durability and it’s super shiny. I wear it literally everyday (even work out with it). I really like buying mainly 10k and 14k gold. I don’t really see why people hate on other people for getting less than 18k gold. After all, even if it’s 8k, there’s still gold on there.

I just bought a 10K Mariner with a 10K pharaoh pendant. I was worried because I can’t not wear anything fake or that contains nickel. I break out bad. So I was worried to buy the 10k. Wore it for 3 straight days no issue. To be honest it’s all personal preference. I’m not buying gold as a investment to cash in when gold raises in price. To me, 10k is still gold even though it’s less gold than 14k. If you want it to last, 10k. If you want an investment, 18k. 14k is a happy median.

So that’s what I’m limited to but either way I dont even really see the difference between 14k to 10k anyway lol so I’m a happy camper

Keep up the good work and hope to order something from you soon. Also, just got a 22k Singapore Chain from my dad. It was his since 1988 and passed it down to me. Would you carry Singapore chains by any chance? Or do you have/sell 22k pendants by any chance? If not, is it okay to pair a 22k gold necklace with a pendant 18k and under or will it look off? Thanks!

I know this is an old video, but I’m not sure about 10K tarnishing/getting dull. My father in law had a nice 9K chain. When he died (almost 17 years ago), my husband gave me the chain. He prefers 14K/18K yellow gold , white gold or steel. Well, I wore that 9K chain for the longest. Now our daughter wears it. My husband said his dad had that chain since my husband was in his teens. My husband is in his late 40’s so that chain is at least 30 years old. I’ve never had it professionally cleaned or anything. Just the occasional over the counter gold cleaner. Teenager is wearing it, so this is the first time we’ll have to get it repaired because she broke the link next to the clasp. Chain was made in Turkey though. So maybe it all just depends on where you buy it.

In Portugal most of the gold is 19,2k,and people normally don't want to buy less than that for several reasons. Middle eastern gold is the best by the way,so I guess most of them can look at gold from other places like nothing special at all lol By the way,gold is always a good investiment and you can never go wrong using it. I always suggest to save a little more to buy the gold with more carats available in your country.

It doesnt really matter if you buy 10K, 14K or 18K... STop listening to these people just spewing out what they hear over and over and pass it off as the truth. Some expert jewelers cant even tell the difference between 10k and 14K. ANd if you buying any chain under 22K as an "investment, then you are making an silly investment. The gold is mixed with a bunch of other metals, and there is an upcharge in price in order to make the jewelry, so you will never ever really get what u paid for it. If you want to invest in Gold then go buy 22K coins/bullions/bars. Thats the only way you can make a real "investment in gold" If you are buying necklaces, then buy them because you want to look fresh, not for a silly investment, that makes nosense. Why by a 14K 20inch rope weighing 17 grams filled with all types of filler metals for $900 , when you can get a pure 1oz gold bar for $1250? thats not an investment, thats stupid!!!!!

Maaan. I been wearing 10kt chains for years and never had a problem. My last chain was a nice size 10kt Franco I had for 8 years, got compliments every time I wore it and I never got it polished or cleaned. I also have a 18kt presidential solid gold Rolex and guess what? Took that beauty to the Rolex repair spot twice (had for 5 years) largely due to my ignorance on how soft the gold is. So guess what!! 10mm 10kt chain and bracelet from Daniels Jewelry inc on the way. You know how much a 18kt screw for your watchband cost? Lol. I fucks with 10k. I’m never selling it anyway.

Same here, I just bought a fat 10k Miami Cuban Link before watching the video. And thought I made a mistake... But after talking to different Jewelers and reading the comments and having one of my old 10K rings shined up... I'm very happy with my purchase.

jewelry game is a shame the jeweler can tell you he is going off the gold prices.. which is obviously sky high, so if you r big guy like me 6'2 & not a small man then obviously they are going to charge you up the ass for a bigger chain 14 k $ 3,000 & up for a big guy sucks for me but i got a nice 14 k gold last supper pendant. other than that i like all your advice keep it up

+Samantha Serna you have a point. You can always go with a hallow chain if you want the big chain without all the gold weight. Bigger solid chains require a lot of gold.

Jay O'Reilly you are getting ripped off my man. Learn to do math. For 5 grand you can get a solid 8mm 14k Cuban link easily. Gold is $1330/ozt, a 100 gram 14k chain is 58.3% gold, which is 58*$43/gram which comes out to just under $2500 of gold. Tack in labor, normal markups, etc and you get to like 35-45 per gram of 14k which is like 30-38 per gram of gold. If you pay what you say then you are getting ripped off horribly. Jacoje has legit prices for legit chains.

For us Asians it's rare you see us with 10 or 14k. Most Asians wears 24k. I personally preferred 18k because of the shines. I only wear 18k May not be alway Asian gold but ONLY 18K. However yes 18k is expensiver I perferred to stick with Asians gold because of the values. If I want to sale it back I don't lose too much of the labor cost. I get back 90 to 95 percent back. I paid 1200$ for 18k back in the early 2000 I sold it and got 900$ back.

Here is the thing let’s say you have a 10k rope chine that is 10grams and the same chain in 14k the 14k Will weigh more then the 10k because gold is heavier then silver and there is a bit more gold in 14k. With that being said it’s not just $5-$7 dollars more a gram it’s another gram or two PLUS $5-$7 more per gram. So yes 14 is a lot more then 10k in the end. Now a days you get the same look as you do with 14k out of a 10k. You need to look at the scrap price when buying gold. You will see that a 10gram 14k chain will bring you $30-60 more then the same chain in 10k but you paid 33% more for the 14k chain retail and that could be hundreds of dollars more todays gold price is $1217 an OZ so you shouldn’t pay more then $31.00 a gram for 14k and no more then $24.00 for 10k. If you do your getting ripped off. Sorry but this is the truth.

Thats’s because you got a lot. Compared to other kts it’s cheap. Get the same chain in 14k and you’d pay $10 extra for every gram in your chain, and $20 more per gram for 18. That adds up, that’s like a $1200 difference on a 60 gram chain

10kt gold is 41.7 % pure gold rest is other metals. So its definitely not fake my dude. With 14kt you get 58,5% pure gold plus a little deeper richer color to it. Might add to greater feeling of authenticity knowing you have more gold weight. But as a everyday wear you should be confident in your 10kt
