Service details
What gold plating is
Gold plating is used to apply a new gold finish to suitable jewellery that has become worn, faded or uneven in colour over time. It is often chosen for jewellery that still has sentimental value or is still good to wear, but no longer looks as clean or well presented as it once did.
For customers looking for gold plating in Melbourne, the main goal is usually to refresh the appearance of the piece and give it a cleaner and brighter gold finish again. Gold plating can be a practical option where the jewellery is suitable and the underlying metal is in good enough condition.
What we gold plate
We provide gold plating for suitable jewellery pieces, including selected rings, earrings, bracelets, pendants and other items that are appropriate for plating services.
Not every piece is suitable for gold plating. The base metal, the current finish and the overall condition of the jewellery all matter. That is why we assess each piece before confirming whether gold plating is the right option.
What we check before gold plating
Before any gold plating is carried out, we check the item properly to make sure it is suitable for the process. This includes the type of metal, surface wear, previous repairs, existing finish and general condition of the piece.
Preparation is an important part of the final result. If a piece is heavily worn, scratched or poorly finished underneath, that can affect how the gold plating comes up. Where preparation is needed, that should be considered before plating goes ahead.
What to expect
Gold plating can improve the colour, finish and overall presentation of suitable jewellery, but the final result will still depend on the condition of the piece underneath.
If the jewellery is suitable and properly prepared, gold plating can help restore a cleaner, fresher and better presented finish. If the item is not suitable, it is better to know that before work begins so the right advice can be given.
What we do not offer
We do not work on watches, stainless steel items or hard gold plating.
That means we do not offer gold plating for stainless steel jewellery, stainless watch parts or other stainless steel pieces. If you are unsure about the metal, it is best to contact us first so the item can be checked before you visit or post it in.
