I've seen other GLO's badges marked 18K and I think they are white gold all the way through. But I also got a LCA badge (Balfour) that had been set into a ring. The ring itself was small and of poor quality, so I pulled the badge out. Lo and behold, the marring revealed that the 10K "white gold" was really just plating. It was yellow gold underneath.
Oh, what a tangled web we weave.
Chapter guards are just letters. They don't have to be made by anyone in particular. Once, I was looking for a white gold, pearled, double letter guard, but they didn't show one for LCA. So I just searched the site until I found one for another GLO - I think it was Delta Gamma sorority - and ordered it. Not cheap, cost like $104 as I recall. But my order was filled and it arrived by UPS, sent from Delta Gamma HQ. Whatever it takes.
