What is Plated Jewelry?
Gold-plated/Silver-Plated accessories are made with a base metal coated with a thin layer of gold or silver.
They give the elegant look of gold or silver at a more accessible price.
With proper care, plated pieces can stay beautiful and shiny for a long time.
How to Take Care of Your Plated Accessories
Avoid Water & Moisture
Remove before:
- Bathing
- Swimming
- Washing hands
- Exercise
Water and sweat can slowly fade the gold plating.
Avoid Chemicals
Keep away from:
- Perfume
- Alcohol
- Lotion
- Hair spray
- Cleaning products
Apply perfumes and skincare first before wearing your accessories.
Store Properly
- Keep in a dry place
- Store separately to avoid scratches
- Use a pouch, jewelry box, or zip lock
Humidity can affect the plating over time.
Clean Gently
Use a soft dry cloth after wearing to remove:
- Sweat
- Oil
- Dust
Do not use strong jewelry cleaners or rough cloth.
Wear with Care
Plated jewelry is delicate by nature.
Frequent friction or rough use may gradually fade the plating.
Treat your pieces gently to help preserve their shine and color.
Reminder
Fading over time is natural for plated accessories, especially with regular use.
Proper care helps maintain their beauty longer.
Wear beautifully. Care gently.
