The number 5 on gold earrings typically indicates the karat weight of the gold, specifically that the earrings are made of 5 karat gold, which is 20% pure gold and 80% alloy. However, it’s more common to see karat marks as 10K, 14K, or 18K in jewelry. In some cases, the number may also refer to the size or design code specific to the manufacturer. Always verify with a jeweler for accurate identification.
