Our 18K gold plated jewelry is not made of 18 karat gold actually,
it base metal is usually brass or zinc alloy or sterling silver or
stainless steel. 18k gold plated jewelry is made by
electrochemical plating or chemicals to deposite a very thin layer
of 18k gold over the base metal, the gold layer as thin as about
0.01~0.03μm. There is real gold on such jewelry, even if it’s just
a thin layer of it.
The production principleof Real
Platinum Plated and Real Rose Gold Plated jewelry is the same as
18K gold plated, it is also made by electrochemical plating or
chemicals to deposite a very thin layer of 18k gold over the base
metal. The only difference is the color of 18K gold, the factory
will combine 25% of precious metals according to the needs of
product, and determine the color of 18k gold according to the
different content of precious metals in the 25%. Rose Gold is made
up 75% Gold+25% Copper+Silver+Zinc, Platinum(White Gold) is made
