Rhodium Plating

What Is Rhodium Plating

Rhodium plating is a finish on most white gold jewellery. This means that a layer of rhodium (with a thickness of around 0.75 to 1.0 microns) is coated on the item's base metal to increase the durability, lustre, and light reflection of a piece of jewellery. What many customers need to be aware of about this service is that the layer slowly scratches off over time, revealing the original colour of the metal. Therefore, re-coating it may be necessary every 8 – 12 months. Nonetheless, our team carries out the rhodium plating on our premises, and we can do the process on the same day if you need us to. Unlike many other jewellers, you won't have to wait for weeks.

Procedure: Our process involves removing as much old rhodium plating as possible. We then polish the ring and rhodium it with our electro-plating machine. Your ring looks just as it did the day you bought it. We can do the least expensive to the highest quality ring. Each one seems as bright as the other, as you see the reflective brilliant white colour of the rhodium plating and not the actual colour of the metal below. Many customers are calling in, especially before a big night out, so they have a lovely sparkly ring to wear.
