Handcrafted gold-filled and gold-plated jewellery

Gold-filled and gold-plated jewellery

Gold-filled and gold-plated jewellery are more affordable jewellery options compared to solid gold pieces. At Pearls & Pomegranates, we showcase jewellery designed by independent jewellers that is made from the highest quality materials. Discover each product listing for more information on how each jewellery piece is made.

Gold-filled jewellery is made from a base metal (usually silver or brass) that is bonded to a gold outer layer. The gold colour on these pieces is more durable than traditional gold plating and is less likely to wear. Gold vermeil plated jewellery is made from a sterling silver base with a gold plating that is at least 2.5 microns thick and of 10 carats or higher. While these pieces require more care than gold-filled designs, they generally use higher quality gold and base metals.
