pure gold is a soft metal. that's why it is mixed with other hard metals to make them stronger. but still relatively soft compared to steel or silver. so yes they will have scratch marks no matter which brand and whoever made them. the love bangles have a very polished smooth surface so scratches will be more apparent. the severity depends on the wearer. if you're bothered by this fact, avoid banging them on glass surfaces (edges of a glass table eg) and keep a good distance from walls. and if you're putting them on, best done at home with care otherwise just live with the markings as they come.
