Description + Details
Our 15mm Nohea Heirloom Bangle is 14k gold-filled, 18k gold-filled or thick silver coated over a strong, gold brass base. Nohea meaning beautiful or handsome. The Nohea heirloom features a bamboo design that reminds us of its resilience and beauty in the way it flourishes around the islands. This bangle has a section for enameling your name, a loved one's, location, date, phrase, or anything else up to the character limit.
This bangle is considered medium to heavyweight. 18k gold filled has a bright yellow gold color (a little less bright than 24k gold, but brighter than 14k gold). Our thick coated silver is similar in look to a bright white gold.
The entire process for custom product completion is between 3-5 weeks. Please be patient as each bangle will be made specifically for you.
Sizing Notice: PLEASE make sure to size correctly and even send us a photo for our recommendation to aloha@kaohanajewelry.com if you have any uncertainty. We are not able to refund, re-size, OR exchange this particular bangle as it is made for you.
Please view our jewelry care best practices to ensure long-term wear. However, our 18k gold filled pieces are very strong and almost like gold. Note: If you live near any known areas with sulfur, please store your gold filled jewelry in an air-tight pouch. Airborne sulfur has been known to diminish and fade gold-filled jewelry.
About Gold Filled
Gold filled jewelry has a thicker coating of gold around the base material. This allows you to treat your bangle as a solid gold piece without much tarnish or wear. We still recommend treating your bangle with care for longevity and keeping away from lotions or oils for best shine!
Gold filled should remain away from high-sulfur environments. If you live on the Big Island, please store your jewelry in a sealed bag in order to prevent from sulfur-caused tarnishing.
While gold-filled is a superior alternative to gold-plated items, it is not the same as solid gold. Gold-filled items are subject to scratching against hard surfaces, metals, or items it may come in contact with often. You will be able to tell between scratching and tarnishing when your bangle shows silver (scratching) vs. bronze/green (tarnishing). Please take a look at our care guide for best practices for taking care of your jewelry.
