What is the difference between metal gilding and real gold gilding? Will it fade? The shopping mall’s jewelry counters are filled with a variety of golden shiny jewelry, which makes people dazzling. How to find gold-plated jewelry and real gold-plated jewelry among these jewelry? How long does it take for the gold-plated bracelet to fade? 1. There are two types of gold-plated jewelry, one is gold-plated with homogeneous materials, and the other is gold-plated bracelets with heterogeneous materials. Homogeneous gilding refers to gilding the surface of gold jewelry. Its meaning is to improve the brightness and color of jewelry. Gold-plating of heterogeneous materials refers to the gold-plating of the surface of non-gold materials, such as silver-plating and copper-plating. Its meaning is to replace the color of the plated material with the luster of gold, thereby enhancing the ornamental effect of jewelry. 2. Gold-plated bracelets worn for a long time will fade. Gold plating refers to plating a layer of gold on the surface of other metal jewelry by electroplating. The color is similar to that of real gold jewelry. The golden color is bright and it is difficult to identify when new. However, gold-plated jewelry has a lighter feel, a harder texture, and no marks on the teeth, and will fade easily after a long time. The above is a simple way to distinguish between gold-plated metal and gold-plated gold. I hope it will help you when choosing a gold-plated bracelet in the future.
