Real Gold Plated Jewelry Findings

Karat Gold - Understanding Gold Purity

1K Gold = 4.166% pure Gold
"K" stands for karat and indicates the percentage of gold in an alloy.

Gold Plated Information

  • Real 18K Gold plated
    Base Metal
    (Brass or Zinc Alloy
    or Stainless Steel)

    A very thin layer of 18k gold

  • Real platinum plated
    Base Metal
    (Brass or Zinc Alloy
    or Stainless Steel)

    A very thin layer of 75% Gold+ 25% Silver+Nickel+Zinc(Nickel not exceed 0.3%)

  • Real Rose Gold plated
    Base Metal
    (Brass or Zinc Alloy
    or Stainless Steel)

    A very thin layer of 75% Gold+ 25% Copper+Silver+Zinc

Our 18K gold-plated jewelry is not actually made of 18 karat gold, its base metal is usually brass, zinc alloy, sterling silver, or stainless steel. 18K gold-plated jewelry is created through electrochemical plating or chemical processes that deposit a very thin layer of 18K gold onto the base metal, with the gold layer being as thin as about 0.01 to 0.03 micrometers. Despite its thinness, there is real gold on such jewelry, even if it's just a thin layer of it.
The production principle of Real Platinum Plated and Real Rose Gold Plated jewelry is the same as 18K gold-plated jewelry, it is also created through electrochemical plating or the application of chemicals to deposit a very thin layer of karat gold over the base metal. On our website, in comparison to commonly plated products, the color durability of Real Platinum Plated and Real Rose Gold Plated jewelry is superior.

Real 18K Gold Plated VS Golden Plated

We offer two types of gold-plated jewelry: real gold-plated (12K, 14K, 18K, and 24K) and golden-plated. Below is a brief comparison between real 18K gold-plated and golden-plated items, similar to other real gold-plated pieces.

Difference Between Ion Plating (IP)
and PVD Vacuum Plating

Our stainless steel jewelry undergoes three types of electroplating processes: PVD vacuum plating, ion plating (IP), and water electroplating. Vacuum plating, also known as physical vapor deposition (PVD), is a surface treatment technology. This process involves evaporating or sputtering metal or non-metal materials under vacuum conditions and depositing them onto the surface of the object to create a thin film. PVD technology includes various coating methods, with ion plating (IP) being one of them. Ion plating (IP) is a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process that is sometimes called ion assisted deposition (IAD) or ion vapor deposition (IVD) and is a modified version of vacuum deposition.

The thickness of the plating layer is influenced by the electroplating process and duration. The longer the plating time, the thicker the layer becomes, resulting in longer color preservation.

Below is a brief comparison of the color durability of Ion Plating, PVD Vacuum Plating, and Water Galvanization.

Electroplating Process Feature Metal Color Color Durability
No Electroplating Stainless steel is a non-reactive metal, which means it does not oxidize or tarnish like other metals such as silver or brass. Hypoallergenic. Stainless Steel Color Tarnish resistant, retain its color for a long time
Vacuum Ion Plating(IP) The vacuum plating process is complex and requires specific environmental and equipment conditions, making it a green, environmentally friendly technology. The plating is done in a vacuum oven, resulting in longer color retention and a durable coating. Real Gold Plated
(14K, 18K, 24K)
Usually 1 Year
Real Rose Gold Plated Usually 6~12 Months
Rainbow Color Usually 6~12 Months
Blue Usually 6~12 Months
PVD Vacuum Plating The vacuum plating process is complex, with strict environmental and equipment requirements, making it a green, environmentally friendly technology. It also results in a durable coating. Real Gold Plated
(14K, 18K, 24K)
Usually 1 Year
Real Rose Gold Plated Usually 6 Months
Golden Usually 6 Months
Rose Gold Color Usually 6 Months
Water Plating "Water plating" liquid is processed in a water-based solution. Real Gold Plated

How to Find Your Bracelet Size

These simple methods can help you choose the relatively accurate size of a finished bracelet, especially when you purchase your bracelets online. Please note, if you get the size of length, please read directly to the method 1; if you get the size of inner diameter, please read directly to the method 2.

Method 1: When you only know the length of the bracelets,

Step 1:Measure your wrist(where you often wear your bracelets) with a tape measure or a long strip of paper, and get your wrist circumference.

Step 2:Place your wrist circumference to the nearest number in the bracelet length chart below to get your bracelets size.

Method 2: When you only know the inner diameter of the bracelets or bangles

 

Step 1:close your fingers as though you are getting your bangle through.

Step 2:take out a tape measure or a piece of blank paper strip and measure around the closed hand at the widest point. Then get the circumference of your hand.

Step 3:Place your actual hand circumference to the nearest number in the size chart below, you can quickly position the bracelets or bangle sizes that are most suitable for you. For example, if your actual hand circumference is 7.1", You can quickly determine that 2.25" inner diameter is best size for you from the size chart.
