GOLD PLATED STEEL

Gold PVD plated over 316L surgical steel — the affordable way to wear gold-toned jewellery across several piercings at once. The colour is vacuum-bonded to the steel, which wears far better than the flash-plating used on costume jewellery.

Plating is still a surface, so this is jewellery for healed piercings. Expect the finish to soften over months of daily wear, keep it away from abrasives and harsh cleaners, and step up to solid gold if you want a piece that will look the same in five years.
