Featured Isn't There A Name for This Style of Engraving?

    It's engraved (I think that's the right term, I'm getting too old) with black highlights. Most of the highlights are worn off. I'm having trouble finding a similar one - I did find two but they just say "14k gold cross", so that's not very descriptive.

    Came on a 10 gram gold chain - can't wait to test them both. I thought I spot on the cross that leads me to think that the cross itself is only gold filled, but I'm still hopeful for the chain.

    Thanks!

    Just tested the cross and it passed the 10k test; gonna try 14k tomorrow when the light is better and also give it a once over again to see where I thought I saw some wear as my acid isn't the freshest. Fingers crossed!
