What’s is a brushed gold finish? A brushed gold finish in jewellery refers to a type of surface texture that gives gold a matte, non-reflective appearance. This finish is achieved through a specific process that involves gently scuffing or abrading the surface of the gold to create fine, parallel lines or a soft, satin-like texture. Brushed gold jewellery offers a timeless, understated look that works well for both casual and formal occasions. What is gold plated jewellery? Plated jewellery is made by coating a base metal (usually brass) with a thin layer of precious or coloured metal - making it an affordable option for every fine jewellery lover. How to care for brushed gold jewellery Plated jewellery looks identical to a piece made entirely of a precious metal but does require more care to keep the plating intact for as long as possible. Store your plated jewellery in a fabric pouch. Make sure your jewellery is completely dry, especially before storing it. Do not apply perfume, hairspray, or deodorant before wearing your jewelry as certain chemicals may damage the finish. Always remove your jewellery before swimming, bathing, doing household chores, or using abrasive cleaners. Use a soft dry cloth to gently polish your plated jewellery. Made in Bangkok, Thailand
