Beach lovers, surfers and anyone who grew up hunting for shark teeth along the shore will get this one right away.
The shark tooth pendant is finished in 24k gold electroplating, which gives it a warm, bright gold color, and it hangs from a 14k gold fill chain. Gold fill carries a much thicker layer of gold than plating, so the chain is made for regular wear. The pendant is small, about 0.75 inch tall and wide, which keeps it subtle enough for everyday outfits and easy to layer with longer chains. The chain is 16 inches and does not adjust, so it sits close at the base of the neck, a length that works well with open collars and summer tops. It is a fun gift for an ocean fan, a dive buddy or someone heading to the coast on vacation. This is the exact necklace in the photos.
The pendant is about 0.75 by 0.75 by 0.25 inches, and the chain is 16 inches long. One photo shows the pendant next to a ruler.
Gold filled metal is a layer of gold alloy bonded to a base metal core, usually brass, and in the US it must contain at least 1/20 of its total weight in gold. That gold layer is roughly 15 to 25 times thicker than electroplate, and good gold filled pieces can last 10 to 30 years with daily wear. Electroplate is the thinner of the two finishes.
