Why choose gold filled jewelry over gold plated.

While gold plated jewelry is usually not an ideal choice, gold filled jewelry can be a high-quality addition to your collection.

Gold filled jewelry isn’t created through electroplating but rather through bonding with heat. Since three or 4 thick layers of gold cover the silver inside, the jewelry is protected from tarnishing, discoloration and chipping and it‘s safe for people with metal allergies.

Unlike vermeil and gold plated jewelry, gold filled jewelry has a much thicker layer of gold over the silver base, sometimes as much as 100% thicker. This makes a big difference in terms of the jewelry’s ability to resist wear and tear long term. It makes it more valuable as it’s much more durable.

Authentic gold filled jewelry have a minimum of 5% gold weight it’s life span is between 10 to 15 years. 

This is why you should invest into the right piece of jewelry that will last you longer.
