If you're seeking an affordable, yet luxurious statement piece to add to your ensemble, 14k gold-plated jewellery may just be your answer. We use 14k gold for our gold-plating. Only gold that is 9k or more is considered "gold." The higher the cartage, the more pure gold it contains and the thicker the gold layer, the longer it maintains its finish. Gold-plating can be extremely thin, so micron thickness is very important.
At Pandora, the thickness of our gold, our base metal and our plating process all adhere to industry standards. These techniques have been perfected over time and impart a true sense of history and craftsmanship into each and every piece we make. Plus, the plating process adds an extra layer of protection to your jewellery against tarnishing, oxidation and corrosion. This way, when you wear a plated piece from Pandora, you're actually wearing a piece of jewellery history. And because of our dedication to craftsmanship, you can love your jewellery longer.
