If you are interested in learning more detail about the electroplating process for gold, we invite you to visit our faqs-gold plating page located on this web site.

Please note, for the last four years, we have implemented a company policy to eliminate the use of traditional nickel pre-plating from all electroplated jewelry and decorative items. This will ensure that any potential for allergic reaction from exposure to nickel by our customers is eliminated. Our unique electroplating processes and quality methods ensures that your gold plated item will remain bright and pristine for years to come.
