Is expensive gold jewelry really worth it?

High-quality gold jewelry (14k/18k) is worth it because it actually lasts a lifetime – cheaper fashion jewelry does not. If you do the math: A 150-euro gold chain worn for 20 years costs 7.50 euros per year. A 20-euro piece of fashion jewelry that discolors after 6 months is more expensive per day of wear.

What you get for the extra cost

• Material value that is retained (gold price increase possible)
• No skin reactions due to nickel or base metals
• No tarnishing, no discoloration, no flaking
• Can be passed on as an heirloom
• Engraving and personalization make sense for lasting pieces

When cheaper jewelry makes sense

• Seasonal trend pieces for 1-2 seasons
• Travel jewelry without fear of loss
• Trying out a new style before investing
