Thank you.** 【A Few Things About Plated Materials】 Metals or plating exposed to air will inevitably oxidize and discolor; the only difference lies in the speed, which depends on factors such as material grade, price, and personal usage/care habits. This does not apply to metals encased in resin, as this method of construction blocks air. In such cases, the focus would be on the grade/quality of the resin. Our workshop uses Japanese resin, which is then colored and coated for protection. Aside from precious metals (gold/platinum/silver, etc.) or stainless steel, common surface treatments for metal accessories can be "roughly" divided into these categories, ordered by price and color durability (highest to lowest): Gold Filled (GF) > K Gold Plated (KGP) > Alloy Plated. The character "鍍" (plated) itself refers to the electroplating process. 【How Can I Extend the Lifespan of Plated Materials?】 - Keep dry and avoid contact with water. If exposed to sweat, wipe clean with a dry cloth after use. - After wearing, gently wipe the metal parts with a dry cloth/jewelry cleaning cloth and store in a zip-lock bag to isolate from air/moisture. - Minimize friction. Store jewelry in separate, individual sealed bags or boxes. - Avoid contact between the plating and highly volatile substances like hairspray, alcohol, or perfume. - If you habitually wear jewelry daily, try to rotate different pieces or consider purchasing items made from more durable precious metals (pure gold/silver) or stainless steel.
