Plated jewelry is made of a thin layer of gold or silver electroplated over brass. We manufacture with the highest plating materials and add a protective coating to all of our plated designs to ensure your pieces last.
Regardless of our plating quality and protective coatings, these pieces need to be cared for to live their best lives. Do not wear your gold or silver-plated jewelry in water. Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, oils, and sweat. These chemicals can dull your pieces and reduce their shine.
We recommend your jewelry be the last thing you put on when heading out. After removing your jewelry, run a clean dry cloth over each piece to remove the day. Do not use polish or soap on these pieces, as these chemicals can easily strip the plating. If you have a known allergy to brass, please be aware when purchasing gold or silver-plated jewelry.
A small selection of our gold-plated jewelry is now made with a stainless steel base rather than brass. Materials are noted on the product page for each piece. Gold-plated steel still needs a little TLC, and we recommend removing it before showering or swimming to preserve its shine.
