What is gold filled jewelry?
Gold filled jewelry is a much higher quality alternative to the plated jewelry we see in the fast fashion industry. Gold plating uses a technique of dipping the piece is 14k or 18k gold which give it a thin coat of less than .05% of the piece. In contrast, gold filled material is a thicker layer bonded to the base metal using heat and pressure. The total gold composition using this technique comes out to 5% solid gold. This high percentage of 14k gold is reflected in the higher price point compared to gold plated items. Gold filled jewelry pieces are tarnish resistant, water proof, and won’t turn your skin green! Absolutely perfect for everyday wear for years to come.
