I weargold heart ruby necklace everywhere. Usually in the shower, but I sometimes take it off for bed because it is sort of short and it's just for safety.. right? I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Technically there's always the chance of it choking you...but it's very unlikely. I've slept with necklaces on for years and I'm still here to tell you about it. And if you dry it off well after a shower, you should be fine.

if it is real gold you can wear it forever. I wear mine for the last 40 years and very seldom take it off.

Hi there, It depends on how thick and how short the necklace is. I have been wearing mine all the time for years now, in the shower, on the bed.... Mine is light and thin with a small pendant, not too short so I don't feel anything. The necklace is 18K, every year, when the gold got a bit darker colour and less shiny, I just brought it to a jewellery shop and paid about $5.00 and they made it shiny like brand new one. I hope it helps! Cheers, From Plussize-swimwear07 (www.curvysea.com)

i am afraid I can't agree with the first reply. it is trendy to integrate silver and gold together in fashion jewelry world. But of course, the it doesn't mean no matching skill is needed. i got a ring on line,which is a mixture of silver and gold colour, though not siver and gold material, you still can have a reference . see the source: http://www.pop-jewelry.com/product_detail.php?sku=fj0605160ux0155

Question: How can I get my mom's gold necklace turned into a different style chain for me?
My mom told me she'd give me this female 14K gold necklace she's had for over 20 years to turn into anything I want. So I saw a men's rope chain I like, and I'm wondering if it's possible to have her's melted down and turned into the one I saw. How does that process work? is it possible/expensive to do?? Advice from a savvy jewelrer would be greatly appreciated... thanks!

You can melt the necklace and make something out of it, but the problem is not enough gold to make a rope chain.

It sounds like it would be doable. I think jewlers can do almost anything. I'm sure if you take it to a jewler they will be able to show you what is possible. My advice is to take it to a local professional jewler not to a chain jewlery store at the mall. They will probably have to send it away. A local jewler should be able to do the work on premise. Good Luck.

In the long run, it is better to purchase a jar of jewelry cleaner from your jeweler. Toothpaste has abrasives in it that will cause minor scratches and dull your gold. Jewelry cleaner and if you want to spend a couple of extra bucks for a polishing cloth works great. Also, many jewelers will clean your jewelry free of charge while you browse their store.

Believe it or not, dish detergent and a toothbrush. Most liquid dish soaps have a degreaser in them. It will remove body oils from your necklace. Brush well but carefully, rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. You can also use sudsy amonia. Most jewelry cleaners have amonia in them, so if you have it at home, use it.
