    Whe you say pure gold, do you mean solid gold? Also, I’ve seen gold dipped advertised. Is that considered gold filled?

    I’m a metalsmith and wrote a blog years back bashing on gold plated jewelry… basically calling it crap ( in nice terms). I had a few people write on my page crabbing at me about what I wrote! They said they worked with gold plated jewelry and that it’s good quality and lasts a long time and that I should be ashamed of what I wrote!!! Well needless to say I stopped writing about it… but I still hate crappy gold plated jewelry.

      Gold filled is a better quality than plated gold and does come in different karret type. I'm a small precious metals refiner using chemical analysis to purify, and I see a lot of markup for the actual reality of what's been purchased.

    Items plated with gold or silver will wear off when warn often. I dislike gold plated jewellery. I would never buy it. I have some old pocket watches that are gold filled. I keep them maintained because the are excellent antique watches. As for myself I buy rings and bracelets that are pure gold, and not filled. My wife and I have pieces ranging from 10K to 18K. Expensive, but worth the investment.

  • @mrgrtd8447

    you lost me on the gold-filled. what is 5% gold, the base or the layer? you weren't clear on that. you probably need a script. also, you say verme, then plating, "this" is cheapest. what is the antecedent of the word "this", verme or plating? again, a script will help you communicate clearer.

  • @Mona-fd5kf

    Thank you for breaking that down. I often wondered why I would get this burning feeling after wearing jewelry that was supposed to be gold. Now I know that gold plated is the lowest grade of gold jewelry you can wear and I’m allergic to the metal itself underneath. Or having a reaction to it.

  • @positiveenergy8888

    I bought gold plated silver items from Pandora, thankfully straight from the factory so it was affordable and it oxidizes even without any wearing. I just kept it in my closet and within months the silver managed to darken the surface somehow 😬 I'd never ever buy anything silver related after that 😱

  • @tribalstyle138
    @tribalstyle138 Před 2 lety

    The base metal actually is super important. Brass yes it turns green but it cleans easily and retains a gold hue. It blends with fill well. I have 3 solid brass rings that are beautiful. Copper harder to clean and keep pink, turns color easy and is ugly. Silver... I've never gotten a gold plated silver I trust. Gold over brass or straight brass is great. The green, cleans with washing your hands and looks like gold. (Wearing a brass bracelet I've had on for years). It matters!

    • @glacialimpala
      @glacialimpala Před 2 lety

      Interesting that you mentioned wearing solid brass - I saw some pieces that look great obviously since it's yellow and looks like gold, but I was upset about the way it oxidizes. So from your experience it actually doesn't matter? Wouldn't every wear during summer and other sweaty months cause new oxidation that needs to be removed? That sounds like a lot of polishing

    Hi! I bought handmade goldfilled rings from a shop on Etsy. They have these messy solder lines on them. She tells me to polish it with a pad. That works... For about three seconds. And then darkens again. Any advice on what ro do with it? I'm just so sad our wedding rings are not as pretty as should be. We wanted to wear them for as long as possible.... :(

      @Puzzle_lulla Před 2 lety

      Correct! Plus you also have to consider the base metal. She kept mentioning copper and brass and those 2 are major culprits for becoming green. Gold plated using stainless steel as the base metal doesn't tarnish. Also I was waiting for her to talk about the different karat levels.

    Hey love, Thank you for your video, it answered a lot of questions for me! I do have a question though. I am new to making jewelry and my biggest issue is finding a reputable vendor that sells quality gold filled items to create jewelry with. There are a lot of videos about teaching you techniques and sharing a wealth of knowledge about the different types of metals, but no one is willing to go the extra mile and help with good vendors. Are you willing to supply a good vendor for gold filled products? Thank you in advance.

    Actually it does matter, 4 wks vs 8 wks. The gold filled chain probably wouldn’t look as bright. I’m not sure why folks in Etsy are charging exorbitant prices for their gold filled beaded bracelet. They have no overhead & it doesn’t take much time to thread the beads.
