Find out more about gold filled
Why do we use gold filled?
We love solid gold jewellery, but it's often less affordable.
That's why we started working with gold filled, a precious material that contains 100 times more gold than gold-plated metal and has an affordable price.
Gold filled is widely used in the USA and in Europe we are among the first ateliers to use it.
What is gold filled?
In the jewellery industry, gold filled requires at least 5% pure gold by weight, 100 times more gold than gold-plated jewellery.
The production of gold filled is a strictly regulated process that involves pressure-bonding multiple layers of solid 14K gold over a high-quality alloy core, resulting in increased resistance and durability.
How does it behave over time?
After solid gold, gold filled is definitely the best and most affordable choice, especially for sensitive skin. With a little care, you can keep your gold filled jewellery beautiful for a long time. It does not make the skin green, does not create allergies and keeps its color longer.
