18k Gold Plated Jewellery 

Our 18k gold-plated jewellery is crafted with a sterling silver base, making it a premium alternative to traditional gold-plated pieces that use brass or stainless steel. With proper care and handling, your piece will retain its golden radiance for longer.

How to store:

To extend the life of your gold-plated jewellery, follow the below care advice:

Keep it dry: Store your jewellery in a dry, cool place away from humidity, as moisture can cause tarnishing of the sterling silver beneath the plating.
Use a soft pouch or lined jewellery box: Prevent scratches and friction by keeping each piece separate. Soft cloth pouches or anti-tarnish jewellery boxes work best.
Avoid exposure to chemicals: Perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and household cleaning agents can accelerate the wear of gold plating. Always put jewellery on last when getting ready.
Remove before water exposure: Since sterling silver is prone to tarnishing and gold plating can fade with moisture, take off your jewellery before showering, swimming, or exercising.

How to clean:

Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth – After each wear, use a microfiber or jewellery polishing cloth to remove oils and residue. Avoid abrasive materials, as they can wear down the gold layer.
Limit water exposure – Unlike solid gold or gold vermeil, gold-plated jewellery should not be soaked. If needed, lightly dampen a cloth with lukewarm water and carefully wipe the jewellery, ensuring it's fully dry afterward.
Avoid silver polish and harsh cleaners which may strip away the gold plating. Instead, stick to dry polishing or mild cleaning when necessary.
If your jewellery starts to lose its shine, gently buff it with a clean cloth to restore its lustre without damaging the plating.
Rotate your pieces – Gold plating naturally wears over time, so consider alternating your jewellery to minimise excessive wear on any single piece.

Chain Ball Slider

To help preserve the condition of the slider and ensure lasting performance, we kindly recommend setting the slider to the preferred length while holding the ball slider firmly with one hand and then using the lobster clasp for daily wear and removal.

Please note, frequent repositioning of the slider may contribute to natural wear over time. This natural wear is not covered under our Warranty Policy.

During sale period please allow for longer dispatch and delivery times.
