Are you searching for a stunning piece of gold jewelry that's both affordable and durable? Look no further! Let's explore the differences between gold filled and gold plated jewelry to help you make the best choice for your needs.
What is Gold Filled?
Gold filled jewelry typically consists of a layer of karat gold that is mechanically bonded to a base metal core. In the United States, the gold layer must account for at least 1/20th or 5% of the total weight of the jewelry, as defined by industry standards.
Gold filled jewelry is a popular choice for those who desire the luxurious glamour of gold but are not willing to pay the high price. It is hypoallergenic and the gold layer in gold filled jewelry is much thicker than gold plated jewelry, which makes it more durable and less prone to tarnishing. While it may tarnish over time like solid gold, the luster can be easily restored with a simple cleaning. This makes gold filled accessories perfect for daily wear.
If your gold filled jewelry begins to tarnish, you need to clean it immediately with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Be sure to avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals as these can damage the gold layer. With proper care and maintenance, your gold filled jewelry can retain its luster and color for many years.
We offer a selection of high-quality gold filled jewelry findings that are imported from the United States.

What is Gold Plated Jewelry?
Our real gold plated jewelry is made by electrochemical plating or chemical deposition of a very thin layer of karat gold on the base metal, which is usually brass, zinc alloy or stainless steel. The gold layer is as thin as about 0.01~0.03μm.
Due to the thinner gold coating, gold plated jewelry is not as durable as filled gold. While gold plated jewelry may require more frequent maintenance, it still provides an elegant and affordable way to enjoy the allure of gold.
For gold plated jewelry, it's important to note that the gold layer will eventually fade over time with regular use. To help prolong the lifespan of your gold plated jewelry, please avoid exposing it to water and sweat, and take it off before showering or doing exercise.
Compared to gold filled products, our real gold plated products are more affordable and versatile. There are a variety of materials and uses, such as 14K Gold Plated、18K Gold Plated、24K Gold Plated beads、charms、connectors、clasps、earring findings、chains、wires、finished jewelry, etc.
