When it comes to choosing the perfect piece of jewellery, understanding the materials used can make all the difference. At BR Jewellery, we pride ourselves on offering high-quality pieces crafted from stainless steel with three layers of 18k gold. Let’s dive into the world of jewellery materials and explore why our pieces are designed to last.
Gold Plating vs. Gold Filled: What's the Difference?
Gold Plating:
- Definition: Gold plating involves applying a thin layer of gold onto the surface of a base metal, such as brass or copper.
- Durability: While gold-plated jewellery can be beautiful, the thin gold layer may wear off over time, especially with frequent wear.
- Care: To prolong the life of gold-plated jewellery, it's essential to avoid exposure to water, sweat, and chemicals.
Gold Filled:
- Definition: Gold-filled jewellery contains a thicker layer of gold bonded to a base metal. It must contain at least 5% gold by weight.
- Durability: More durable than gold plating, gold-filled pieces can withstand daily wear and maintain their lustre longer.
- Care: Similar to gold plating, it's advisable to treat gold-filled jewellery with care to preserve its appearance.
The BR Jewellery Difference: Stainless Steel with Three Layers of 18k Gold
Our jewellery is crafted from stainless steel, known for its strength and resistance to tarnish. Here's why our pieces are a cut above the rest:
- Triple Layer Gold Plating: We use three layers of 18k gold, providing a rich, luxurious finish that is both waterproof and tarnish-resistant. This ensures that your jewellery maintains its beauty over time.
- Durability and Longevity: Stainless steel is a robust material that can withstand daily wear. Combined with our triple-layer gold plating, it offers an elegant appearance without compromising on durability.
- Care Tips: Although our jewellery is designed to resist tarnish, it's still important to care for it properly. Store your pieces in a dry place and clean them gently with a soft cloth to maintain their shine.
