[QUOTE="Donna HA, post: 9430159, member: 14670"]These earrings are a hard resin (not glass) and clear glass stone accents. The gold is testing at 14k unmarked however multiple times and ways with solution, vinegar etc. I googled the following and wonder if this could be it? Is 14K gold over resin real gold? It is a karat gold (10K, 14K or 18K) with a copper-plated resin core. This core gives the jewelry a lightweight durability and also makes it resistant to denting.
