At April Child, we believe your jewellery should be as precious as the memories it holds. That’s why we carefully choose precious metals that are not only beautiful but also durable.

🌿 Sterling Silver (925)

We use high-quality 925 sterling silver,
made of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper for added strength. It’s a
classic choice that offers a soft, luminous glow and timeless elegance.

Sterling silver may naturally tarnish over time, but with regular wear and a
gentle polish, it stays bright and beautiful. We include a care guide
with every order to help you keep your piece shining for years to come.

Why we love it:
It’s skin-safe, hypoallergenic, and perfect for everyday wear—ideal for
capturing your most personal moments in a piece that lasts.

✨ Gold Filled (14k)

Our gold-filled pieces are made with a thick layer of real 14k gold pressure-bonded to a core of durable base metal (usually brass). It’s 100x thicker than gold plating or vermeil, making it a long- lasting and affordable alternative to solid gold.

Gold-filled jewellery won’t flake or rub off with normal wear, and with proper care, it can last for many years. It’s also safe for most sensitive skin.

Our gold-filled materials are made in the USA because The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in the US set clear standards for what
can legally be called “gold-filled.” For example, the gold layer must
make up at least 5% of the item’s total weight, which ensures quality and durability.

Why we love it:
It gives you that rich, warm golden glow without the high price of solid gold, perfect for sentimental keepsakes that are made to be worn and loved daily.

♡ 50 to 100 times thicker than gold plating

♡ Gold layer is at least 5% of total weight

Sterling silver naturally tarnishes over time. It’s a characteristic of the material. The good news is that tarnish is easy to clean using a proper silver polishing cloth (impregnated with a tarnish-removal agent). With just a quick wipe, your jewellery will regain its shine. Some people even prefer the gentle patina that develops on sterling silver over time, as it adds a unique, vintage character.

Gold-filled jewellery is tarnish-resistant thanks to its thick layer of real gold. With a gentle wipe or an occasional clean using mild soap and water, your piece will maintain its beautiful shine for years to come.
