What is Gold-Plating?

At Jewlr, our gold-plated jewelry consists of a thin layer of 18K yellow gold, plated over solid sterling silver, creating the luxurious look of gold at a fraction of the cost.

Keep your yellow gold-plated jewelry looking their best by avoiding activities that can scratch the surface and chemicals – including chlorine pools, lotions, cosmetics, and fragrances. After wearing, wipe with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Store individually in a pouch to prevent scratching.
