The bar beads are 9ct hallmarked solid gold. The small spacer beads are gold filled (a thick layer of 9ct gold bonded over a base metal core, far more durable than plating). The extender chain is gold plated. Hallmarked solid 9ct gold is the dominant material, used wherever the piece touches your skin most.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat stones sit between the gold beads?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery marker appears as a coloured stone along your piece, in the exact order your DNA places them, with the metal beads holding the spaces between. Each stone is 4mm. Common picks include lapis lazuli, amethyst, citrine, garnet, and aventurine. The arrangement is dictated entirely by your DNA, not chosen for visual balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I care for 9ct gold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e9ct gold is harder than 18ct and resists scratching well. Standard care applies: remove before swimming, exercising, or showering. Apply perfume and skincare before putting the necklace on. Wipe with a soft cloth after wear. Store in the supplied jewellery box to prevent the chain from tangling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy the gold piece costs more\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gold necklace is built from solid 9ct hallmarked gold tubes and clasps, with gold filled beads and a gold plated extender. Solid gold does not plate away, fade or wear through. It is the version we recommend for pieces intended to be passed down.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DesigNA","offers":[{"title":"16\" to 18\"","offer_id":54526273028433,"sku":null,"price":699.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\" to 20\"","offer_id":54526273061201,"sku":null,"price":699.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"20\" to 22\"","offer_id":54526273093969,"sku":null,"price":699.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1069\/3958\/0753\/files\/gold-hero.jpg?v=1786297374","url":"https:\/\/mydesigna.co.uk\/products\/gold-dna-profile-necklace","provider":"DesigNA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
