Gold plated jewelry

Gold is undoubtedly one of the most precious and world known metals available from the ancient times. It is one of the most expensive metals but it's really precious and high quality metal worth its price. Though, we all know gold is not available in its pure form. It is made by men and then used for various purposes.
When we hear the word gold, probably the first association that comes into our head is jewelry. It's well known that gold is fondly used in jewelry making since ancient times.
The beauty that gold gives to the jewelry is just outstanding and worth watching. But sometimes it happens that due to the high prices of gold people prefer pure gold ornaments. In such cases only a thin coating of gold is made over the jewelry and such jewelry is called gold-plated. In such cases other metal is used to make the ornaments and then gold plating is done to give a pure gold look to the jewelry piece. The jewelry becomes as beautiful as one made of pure gold. This is a very important advantage of plating jewelry. So you can always buy gold plated jewelry instead of jewelry made of precious metals and it will be difficult to find the differences from the first sight.
