What is the difference between gold plated and gold filled?
Gold plated and gold filled are common methods of strengthening jewelry and adding to their value.
Gold plated jewelry is done by adding a thin layer of gold to the pre existing metal. Also known as dipped jewelry, it is not the strongest bond of gold.
Gold filled jewelry is a thicker plating of gold bonded to the pre existing metal and therefore is more tarnish resistant and longer lasting.
