Gold jewelry can be made of sold pieces, like a wire or hollow pieces like a pipe. Either can be real or fake. The purity of the metal used is what is important not if a pipe is used.
With the price of gold so high today many gold manufactures are using different techniques to get a larger look with keeping the weight down. Hollowing out the piece is one way to do that
