18k Gold PVD Plated Stainless Steel
Our jewelry made with 18k gold PVD plated stainless steel is built to last. The base metal is durable, tarnish-resistant 316 stainless steel, coated with a thick layer of 18k gold using a special PVD process. This makes it 10 times more durable than standard gold-plated jewelry! It’s also hypoallergenic, so no green skin or irritation—plus, we never use lead or nickel. To keep it shiny and beautiful for years, avoid water, liquids, and harsh chemicals.
18k Gold Filled
Gold-filled jewelry gives you the look of solid gold at a fraction of the price. A thick layer of 18k gold (at least 5%) is bonded to a base metal using heat and pressure, making it tarnish-resistant and long-lasting. This is a great option if you want affordable, durable pieces. Like all gold jewelry, it’s best to keep it dry and avoid contact with chemicals to maintain its shine.
18k Gold Plated Brass
Some of our charms are made from 18k gold-plated brass, which allows for intricate and unique designs thanks to brass’s softer nature. These pieces have a thin layer of gold applied over brass, giving them a beautiful gold appearance at a lower cost. While not as long-lasting as our other options, with proper care—avoiding water and chemicals—they can stay looking great for a good amount of time.
