The rate at which this occurs varies, depending on the quality of the material, its price point, and individual usage and storage habits. Metals encased within resin are an exception, as this method seals them off from air. In such cases, the primary concern would be the quality of the resin itself. Our workshop utilizes Japanese resin, which is then subsequently colored and coated with a protective layer. Aside from precious metals (such as gold, platinum, or silver) or stainless steel, common surface treatments for metal jewelry can be broadly categorized as follows, listed in descending order of price and color durability: Gold Filled (GF) > K Gold Plated (KGP) > Alloy Plated. The character "鍍" (dù) itself signifies the electroplating process. 【How Can I Extend the Lifespan of My Plated Jewelry?】 - 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 or jewelry polishing cloth, and store in a zipped bag to isolate from air and moisture. - Minimize friction; store jewelry in separate, individual sealed bags or boxes. - Avoid contact between the plating and volatile substances such as styling sprays, alcohol, or perfumes. - If you habitually wear jewelry daily, try to rotate between different pieces or consider selecting items made from more durable materials like precious metals (pure gold/silver) or stainless steel.
