usually it has 14k printed(cant find the right word for it) on it. but usually that’s wat happens to my fake jewelry. so i think its fake. definitely.

if it feels heavy its reaL. if it feels light its not.
aLso the coLor is an indicator
bite it, real gold is softer than a fake. if it is untouched, it is fake
if you can scratch glass its fake.
hope i helped:]

first, they should stamp 14K if it is gold pcs;
second, it will not be so easy to get dull if it is gold pcs.
i think it is fake.
you can bring to laboratory ( like GIA, IGI , etc. ) the pc, they will scan it with a special machine. then they could give you exact report!
i am a diamond jewelery manufacturer in china. contact me if you have any questions about jewelery.
