What is gold jewellery?

Gold jewellery is jewellery made from gold, a precious metal that has been valued for thousands of years for its beauty and durability. Gold has a unique warm glow that makes it ideal for making jewelry. It is often associated with luxury and prestige. In the making of gold jewelry, gold is often mixed with other metals to improve its strength and color, as pure gold (24-karat gold) is quite soft.

Gold jewelry comes in different shapes and finishes: from solid gold, 18 carat, 14 carat to the popular gold plated jewelry (with us with 24 carat gold layer). Solid gold is often seen as the height of luxury, but gold plated jewelry offers the same look at a lower price.

What is gold plated jewellery?

Gold plated jewelry is jewelry that has a base of another metal, such as brass or silver, covered with a thin layer of gold. This is achieved through a process calledelectrolysis, where the gold is applied to the base metal using an electrical process. This provides the visual appearance of solid gold, but without the cost associated with solid gold.

At Le Rêve Amsterdam we offer an extensive collectiongold plated jewelry that imitates the luxury of gold jewelry, but at a more affordable price. Our gold plated jewelry has the same warm glow and appearance as solid gold, but is made with a technique that makes it possible to apply a layer of real gold to a metal such as brass or silver. This makes them an excellent choice for those looking for affordable luxury. In our case, the thickness of the gold layer is higher than average in the market. In addition, an extra coating is placed over the gold layer to maximize the lifespan of the jewelry.

Why choose gold plated jewelry?

Gold plated jewelry has many advantages that make it attractive to a wide audience. First, it offers the luxurious look of solid gold, without the price tag that often comes with solid gold jewelry. Below are the most important advantages:

1.Affordable luxury

Gold plated jewelry is an affordable way to experience the luxury of gold jewelry. You get the beauty of gold without having to spend a fortune. This makes it easier for many people to experiment with their style more often and purchase multiple pieces.

2.Lightweight

Because gold plated jewelry is often made from base metals such as brass, it is lighter than solid gold jewelry. This makes it more comfortable to wear on a daily basis. All earrings at Le Rêve Amsterdam are light earrings.

3.Variety of styles

Gold plated jewelry comes in all styles – from refined, delicate chains to bold statement earrings. You can easily combine them with other jewelry and they suit almost any occasion, from casual to formal.

4.Durable and low maintenance

Gold plated jewelry, such as gold plated earrings or gold plated chains or a gold bracelet, can last for years with proper care. It is important to maintain them properly, but generally they can withstand the daily wear and tear that solid gold might not.

5.Hypoallergenic

Many gold plated jewelry is hypoallergenic, meaning it does not cause allergic reactions. This makes it ideal for people with sensitive skin.

Difference between solid gold and gold plated jewelry

The main difference between solid gold and gold plated jewelry is the amount of gold that is actually present in the jewelry. Solid gold is made entirely of gold, while gold plated jewelry only has a thin layer of gold that is applied over another metal.

Solid gold is more expensive, durable, and has a longer lifespan than gold plated jewelry. However, it comes at a higher price, making it unattainable for many. Gold plated jewelry offers the same look for a fraction of the price, making it a great choice for those who want to enjoy the beauty of gold jewelry without the high price tag.
