What is Rhodium plating?
Rhodium is one of the rarest and most expensive metals on Earth, it is used in a variety of applications from electronics to jewellery. Its role in the jewellery industry is primarily in what you may know as 'White Gold'. White gold is in fact just regular Gold with a rhodium plating, rhodium is responsible for the bright white finish that the modern jewellery community has fallen in love with!
White Gold has a finish very different to that of Platinum or Silver, which is thanks to the fact that Gold is one of the least reactive elements on Earth, without overcomplicating things; that means it stays very shiny and can be easily cleaned! Rhodium enhances this quality of Gold, making White Gold very easy to discern from Silver of Palladium. Rhodium can also be applied to Silver in order to prevent it from tarnishing!
Our Rhodium plating service allows you to restore your White Gold or Silver pieces to a 'better than new' condition! You can also have Yellow Gold items plated to change their style completely. We offer complimentary deep cleaning with any Rhodium plating related request, bringing your old or worn down jewellery back to life!
