I made a pendant out of brass and had it plated in rose gold. I now want to put it on a rose gold chain and solder the jump ring attached to it closed so that my relatively expensive pendant can't be pulled off by my 6 month old and his new-found interest in jewellery!

George very kindly sent me some red gold solder, so I've soldered the jump ring closed, but I'm nervous about putting the finished piece into pickle. Will safety pickle damage gold plated items at all? I don't see how it could, but I wanted to double-check first.

Thanks in advance,

Joanne
