Is Gold-Filled Jewellery Real Gold?
If you’ve ever wondered whether gold-filled jewellery is “real gold” or just another fancy label, you’re not alone. This question is one of the most searched in the jewellery world.
Here’s the simple truth:
🌸 Yes. Gold-filled jewellery is real gold.
But instead of being solid gold all the way through, it’s created by permanently bonding a thick layer of solid 14K gold to a core metal (usually jeweller’s brass) using heat and pressure. This forms a gold layer up to 100x thicker than regular gold plating, which means:
-
It won’t rub off or chip like normal plated jewellery
-
It’s water-safe - you can wear it in the shower, gym, or ocean
-
It’s hypoallergenic (great for sensitive skin)
-
It lasts years, not months - making it a smart, sustainable choice
Think of gold-filled as the sweet spot between solid gold and gold plated: luxury look, long-term durability, without the 4-figure price tag.
