Hello,

Having just done a search for Gold earrings, I was expecting to find earrings made with Real gold = stamped with 14K, 18K, 22K or 24K (and even 9K or 10K)
http://en.dawanda.com/catalog?category=678-Jewellery-Ear-Jewellery&color=&in_language%5B%5D=en&page=1&price%5Bmax%5D=&price%5Bmin%5D=&q=&sort=&values%5B1%5D%5B%5D=278
I have seen there many gold fill and gold plated items, which should not be in the Gold plated category as they cannot be hallmarked with any of the above.
Vermeil is gold plated on silver, usually hallmarked sterling silver 925, so should not be in the gold category either.
It would be great if as vendors we could make sure our items are in the right category, that way, buyers will be able to find what they are looking for quickly without any confusion.
Thank you all for helping

Hello,

Shall we ask for a category for goldfill?
I do not use it and it will be less confusing for buyers when doing a search

thanks

Yes, I agree this needs to be clarified!

I also agree with that. For me it´s difficult when I'm describing a product with the colour gold or silver because costumers may think that that´s real gold or real silver, and it´s not.
Of course that's easily clarified with the price, but we never know who buys our products...
