Gold-Plated Chains | Taika Jewelry

A gold-plated necklace is a more affordable alternative to real gold.

A gold-plated silver necklace is inexpensive yet a functional alternative to a gold chain. A gold-plated chain typically has about 1-3 microns of gold plating, which lasts about 1-3 years depending on usage while still looking neat. Naturally, a gold-plated chain is a good choice for gold-plated pendants.

Chains are available in various styles and sizes, but the most common size for a pendant chain is about 1.2 - 2.0 mm. It is important to note that a gold-plated chain does not withstand strong mechanical stress, as it wears down the plating more quickly.
