What is the difference between gold-filled and gold-plated?
Short story. It comes down to price and longevity. Both can have a nice look of gold, but bottom-line: gold filled jewelry is better than gold plated. With gold filled jewelry, the gold is bonded to the base metal, whereas gold plating is simply a thin layer of gold plated on top of the base metal. But with all jewelry, longevity is based on care and maintenance. Want more info on how karats factor into the equation (and my funny pun)? Read on.
1) Real gold jewelry ($$$): We know solid gold is obviously the best as it is a precious metal. It’s the best option if you want jewelry pieces that last BUT it is the most expensive (and I probably won't be selling real gold jewelry).
2) Gold-filled jewelry ($$) consists of a base material coated in a layer and much thicker gold coat than gold plated jewelry. Because it is a higher gold content, gold-filled jewelry is one of the better alternatives to real gold jewelry and is more durable than gold plated. High-karat gold-filled jewelry can last many years (providing appropriate care and maintenance is given to the piece, see policies for questions).
3) Gold-Plated jewelry ($) is generally cheaper than any other type of gold option. But, as with anything, you get what you pay for. Its main downside is that gold-plating doesn’t last very long, tarnishes easily and may cause a reaction if you have metal allergies. It is a good options for low priced 'trendy' short term jewelry (think Claires, etc.). There is also gold "Vermeil" which is a leveled-up version of gold-plating, and will last longer than standard plating as it is plated over sterling silver.
Want to go deeper down the rabbit hole, let's talk about karats? (ha ha.. get it, carrots).. anyway.
- 10k gold (10/24 parts, or 41.7% purity) is the most durable, yet has the least gold content.
- 14k gold (58.3% purity) offers an effective balance of strength and aesthetic.
- 18k gold (75% purity) is considered gold’s purest form while still being practical. Think high-end jewelry, engagement rings, etc. 18k gold scratches more easily than 14k or 10k gold.
- 24k gold ..pure gold baby.
Caring for your jewelry
1. Keep Your Jewelry Clean and Dry
Jewelry cleaning is important to restore shine and remove any oils or dirt build-up. But if you’re cleaning a gold-filled necklace or pearl earrings, you may need to use different tools for different materials.
To maintain your pieces, remember a few things:
- Many jewelry types can be cleaned with warm water and a mild dish soap. Use a gentle cloth or brush for cleaning, especially with soft gems like pearls that are easy to scratch.
- Avoid any cleaning products not specifically designed for jewelry. Many cleaners can contain harsh chemicals that can damage gems or metals.
- Rinse jewelry, be careful to not lose a piece down the drain.
2. Keep It Out of the Gym and Spa
As a general rule*, if you’re going to swim, sweat, or steam, don’t bring your jewelry with you. It’s common for people to keep a pair of earrings on in the pool or wear a ring in the shower. But moisture, as well as the pool chlorine, (and even the pH of your sweat) can discolor your jewelry. Here are some suggestions:
- Keep a small cloth jewelry bag in your gym/swim bag to store your jewelry.
- Place a ring bowl by the bathroom sink to remind you to remove your jewelry before showering or washing your hands.
- Wear your pieces only during dry activities and dry places (i.e., take them off when gardening, cooking, playing sports, and cleaning.
Note: Sterling Silver and Gold-filled jewelry are ok in plain water (i.e. shower, baths, etc), just be careful with water that contains harsh chemicals and/or scrubbing items (loofah sponge, etc.) that could scratch the jewelry. Gemstones do not like water for any length of time.
3. Avoid Contact with Lotion or Perfume
Precious metals, colored gems, and pearls are very sensitive to chemicals. That can include even the products you put on your skin. If you’re applying perfume, make sure to do so before putting on your jewelry rather than spritzing afterwards. The same goes for any sort of makeup setting spray, lotion, or skin refreshing spray. Here are some things to keep in mind:
- Pearls and porous gems (i.e. Gemstones) can have permanent surface damage from some cosmetic chemicals.
- Make sure that your skin is dry after applying any sprays before putting jewelry on.
- If your precious metals become exposed to any chemicals, immediately rinse and wash off any residue with a gentle cloth.
Note: Metals such as Sterling Silver and Copper will tarnish naturally, you can use a polishing cloth (e.g. Sunshine Cloth) to bring back the shine on the surface. Gold-filled typically does not tarnish but if it is exposed to chemicals (as indicated above), it may damage the item.
