What is gold filled?
Gold filling is the treatment of a metal (often brass) using a mechanical process to apply a layer of gold alloy of varying titration. The weight of gold alloy corresponds to 1/20 of the total weight of the product, i.e. around 50 to 100 times more than in a gold-plated product.
For the more inquisitive, we explain the differences between gold-filled and gold-plated so you can choose the material that's right for you.
Much more resistant than conventional gold plating, a gold-filled product will oxidize much more slowly.
If you want to slow down the oxidation process even further, you should handle these components with gloves and avoid contact with perfumes, skin oils and lotions. They should also be kept in a dry, temperate place.
