ION Bonded 18K Gold - The ION Bonding process
Gold Bonding refers to the process of chemically bonding a gold layer to a base metal through electrolysis. Gold-Bonded jewelry has a top layer of gold with a thickness of 0.175 microns or greater.
The electroplating process involves placing a metal object in a gold ion solution, then passing an electric current through the solution to make the ions bond to the metal. The result is a quality piece of ION gold- jewelry that has an unmistakable sheen and does not wear off as in some plating processes.
All metal that touches your skin is Gold....All that you see and feel with this jewelry is Gold!
The quality of gold overlay has improved greatly in recent years. Gold overlay products earned a poor reputation a few decades ago when the gold layer quickly wore off of jewelry. However, jewelers have improved the gold bonding methods, and the layer of gold set on today's pieces is thicker than on earlier jewelry.
This jewelry generally will have a gold layer measurement of 1 micron.
The gold won't wear down, even if you wear your favorite jewelry frequently.
