10K Gold Italy means that the object, and I am sssuming it is a piece of Jewelry was made in Italy and that the fineness of the gold is 10 Karat.

The fineness of Gold is determined by Karat. Fine Gold is pure GOLD and is 24 Karat, there are 24 units to a Karat, therefore a 10 Karat piece is less than half pure gold., or 5/12 Gold. The gold is mixed with other metals called alloys.
