If You Own Some, Does Bronzo Look Like Real Gold

Mindy D — Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:44:14 GMT

If you own some Bronzo, does it look the same color as your real 18K jewelry. Does it feel real to you? I am considering buying a long oval link chain. I would like the know what you think.

I own original bronzo which is supposed to look like rose gold. It was before they came out with the yellow gold and white gold bronzo.

I don't own any real rose gold but I can say that on the 2 pieces that I own, you would never guess it's rose gold color. It looks like yellow gold to me. I don't know that anyone would mistake my pieces for real rose gold because the 2 pieces are watches. They don't scream brassy and fake though. I've never seen yellow or white bronze in person.

I own three pieces of the rose tone Bronzo and a pair of the yellow tone Bronzo earrings and they do indeed look like real gold. My gold earrings are a small (for me) textured hoop, very traditional and they look EXACTLY like 14k gold. They also have the weight and feel of a good pair of gold earrings. No one would ever know they aren't gold by feeling them. My rose tone pieces look like rose gold but they can't "pass" as 14k because they are large. My neck piece would probably cost $2000 in gold and my good friends know that I'd never pay that much for rose gold. I'm all set with the rose tone Bronzo but I will indeed add more yellow tone Bronzo to my jewelry wardrobe.

For me the big thing is the weight. I don't like how light weight it is. Since gold comes in many different hues, I don't think the color is the issue.

I own one pair of earrings in the bronzo rose gold and I don't think it looks like 14k at all. I've worn them once but really didn't like the look so I haven't bought anything else in Bronzo. It's very lightweight but the color disappointed me.

I am interested in how authentic the yellow looks, as compared to the real yellow, 18K.

I think the yellow bronzo is a little darker than my 14K and 18K pieces but still mixes with them very well. I have the GILI tubogas necklace, bracelet and black spinel initial all in yellow and they've held up well in the three months I have had them. Hope this helps!

Personally, I wouldn't purchase Bronze jewelry- A friend of mine has a few pieces and they look nothing like Gold-CHeap!

I saw it at the outlet. Doesn't look like gold. I really didn't care for it. I did order one piece in silver tone and that looked ok, but would rather have silver.

I own two Bronzo necklaces. J285612 Bronzo Italia 22"" Bold Polished Triple Rolo Link Necklace in yellow

as well as J278692 Bronzo Italia 24"" Bold Woven Byzantine Necklace.

Both necklaces took my breath away when I opened the boxes. They both have 5 Star reviews and deserved them. Both necklaces have substantive weight. They both look like real gold. I wear them with my real gold jewelry and they match exactly. Needless to say I am happy with my purchases. Take a look at the video of both necklaces. They both look even better in person.

I just looked at both items mentioned in post #9.

While they are very pretty - I do not think they look like real gold at all.

If somebody had them on I wouldn't believe they were the real deal..if that isn't an issue for you then buy the necklance and enjoy your purchase.

Over $200 for colored bronze to be outrageous.

CouponQueen, you certainly are entitled to your opinion!

I think it looks somewhat like 14kt rose gold.,,the ones I have, But it has a beauty and look all it's own. I really like it. I don't think anyone would think the large pieces I have are authentic 14k or 18k gold...they would cost many thousands of dollars. Anyway, I was a gold lover, but since I sold all my pieces and the prices are so hi, I buy SS ...I love the Southwestern artists, Tenorio, Casuse and Johnson. the only downside to silver is the tarnishing.

Culebra owns the necklaces so she has seen them in person. You are looking at them on a computer monitor. I think I'd take her opinion on this.

I don't know about you but there have been times when I ordered something on .com and the color in person looked nothing like it did on the computer.

The Q silver and bronze clad are meant to match 14k, because that is the standard in the US. most Americans who see 18k probably think it is costume because it is so much darker than 99% of our gold. If you go to Europe where 18k is the standard, that's different. Then some Asian countries have a standard of 22 or 24kt. So all gold except 24kt are not "real" if you mean pure gold. They are all alloys of gold and other metals, except 24kt. I have a tiny 24kt bracelet. It is very beautiful, but much, much darker and yellower tha 18kt. In India, and some other countries, your 18 it would be considered inferior.

I have three pieces in the Rose Gold and they are lovely. Believe me, I'm demanding, because I am someone who Loves Rose Gold.

None of my pieces are the large, heavy pieces, mainly because I would not choose that type of jewelry in the real deal, either. I'm just not a fan of really heavy jewelry.

I kind of doubt that I'll buy more of the Bronzo, unless something really catches my eye, but, what I have I like very much and find the color spot on.

I ordered a pair of Bronzo earrings, and they looked nothing like the rest of my real yellow gold. The bronzo yellow was much more brassy. I have a few pieces of fake gold, and they look fine mixed with my real 18k Tiffany gold. Unfortunately, the Bronzo did not work for me. Too bad, I like the idea of it.

PS - my observation is based on the "yellow gold" Bronzo. I can't speak to the white or rose.

Even though as mentioned previously, I absolutely loved the two Bronzo Italia necklaces I purchased, I decided to take a flyer on a Bronzo bracelet. The bracelet on TV, as presented by Mary Beth Rowe, looked spectacular. I ordered it in Rose gold. When it arrived, the style of the rose gold bracelet was beautiful. It was J296353 Bronzo Italia Polished & Textured Status Byzantine Bracelet. I felt when I received the bracelet, though lovely, it went right back as I felt the rose gold color was off. It did not complement my rose gold Byzantine necklace at all. It was far too pink whereas my necklace is more of a champagne rose. On reviewing I am the only one giving the bracelet 4 stars for style only. Everyone else gave it 5 stars. After this experience, I have decided that Bronzo jewelry should be evaluated on an individual basis as to color.

Hello. I am the OP. Thank you for replying. I have been eyeing an oval rolo necklace that comes in four lengths. The chains show up as semi-chunky. Anyone have this item? There is also a matching bracelet. I don't know the item number, but I know that there are two different oval rolo necklaces. Do these look like real gold when you wear them? I will be mixing with 18K earrings, rings, watch. I might use one of the Bronzo chains for a large 18K Italian charm.
