Gold Plated

Officially Licensed Gold Plated Necklaces, Pendants and Rings

The dressier half of the jewellery range, gathered by finish rather than by shape. Crest necklaces lead it for West Ham, Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal, alongside 18ct gold plated on silver pendants and chains, signet rings, earrings, cufflinks and charms. Harry Potter Time Turner and Golden Snitch pieces and the Pusheen jewellery set sit on the character side.

Buying for a birthday or for something bigger?

The distinction here is gold finish against gold plated on silver. Gold-finish crest pieces are the everyday gift, and the one most people choose for a birthday. The 18ct gold plated on silver pendants are built on a sterling base and arrive boxed, which is what makes them the choice for a milestone — a twenty-first, an anniversary, a retirement.

What does 18ct gold plated on silver actually mean?

A layer of 18 carat gold bonded onto sterling silver, not onto base metal. It matters because if the plating ever does wear at a high-contact edge, what shows beneath is silver rather than a dull grey alloy.
