A first for me. I normally steer clear of anything that isn't solid gold, HOWEVER, I thought that these could be a great placeholder if you're saving for the real deal.
But Soph, what is rolled gold? It was a practise used by fusing thin sheets of gold to base metal, often silver. The metal is heat bonded then rolled into flat sheets. Unlike modern gold plated jewellery (which rubs off), the gold conent in rolled gold is much high (around x100). It was first used in England in the 1800s.
The dog clip is marked RG.

All of my pieces are at the very least pre-loved and most of them are vintage or antique. This item is not brand new and as such, will not look brand new. Please expect signs of wear to include kinks in links, surface wear to gold, scuffs to stones and accept this as part and parcel of buying second hand jewellery. I will be as clear as I can with item descriptions and condition statements and aim to make sure you are aware of any potential defects before you buy.
