Gold
FILLED JEWELLERY the term used
to describe jewellery made of non-gold metal but covered with a thick gold
layer. The jewellery is also referred to as rolled gold, rolled gold plated, or
gold overlay jewellery. As a result of the process that yields the gold-filled jewellery,
this jewellery is cheaper than any solid gold jewellery made of the same carat
gold.
Gold FILLED JEWELLERY lasts a long time, and some pieces from the Victorian Era have
been shown to be in good condition, more than 100 years later.
Of
course, the longevity of the gold pieces depends on how they are taken care of,
and also how often they were used. Gold-filled jewellery will not tarnish
easily, and they don’t rust.
What causes gold filled jewellery to tarnish?
· Swimming pools and hot tubs... just don't do it! The chemicals
used are harsh and will damage your gold filled jewellery. If you wear it
accidentally clean it thoroughly as soon as possible, see below!
· Working out... getting sweaty at the gym is
not advised whilst wearing your jewellery; take it off!
· Cosmetics, cosmetics remover and sun lotion... Put your jewellery on last and take it off first. If you have a
day at the beach and your jewellery ends up covered in sunscreen then give it a
good scrub as soon as possible!
How to do a deep clean of gold filled jewellery
· Fill a large bowl with warm water. As warm as is comfortable to keep you
hands in is about right. Use a large serving bowl so it doesn't cool too
quickly.
· Mix a teaspoon of washing up into
the warm water thoroughly.
· Pop your jewellery into the bowl and leave it to soak for 3 minutes.
· Lift it out and place onto a soft towel, don't rinse yet!
· Use a super soft toothbrush and work your way gently across/along your
gold filled jewellery making sure the bristles get into every nook and cranny.
· Rinse under a running tap of warm water. Use about as hot as you can
handle; it will help your jewellery dry quickly.
· Place the jewellery back on your towel and use a soft cotton cloth the
dry and thoroughly as possible.
· Leave overnight between two dry cotton cloths to dry
perfectly.
