The Jody Jewellery collection is composed entirely of genuine 9ct yellow gold. We picked solid carat gold for its durability and exquisite wear. Because of the qualities of 9ct, the colour of your jewellery will never change, surface finishes can be restored or polished, and your piece can be repaired or recycled at the end of its life.
When purchasing gold jewellery, it is critical to inquire whether it is solid carat gold, gold plated, or gold filled. There is a significant difference between these materials, which will have a significant impact on how well your jewellery will wear over time.
The chemical process of placing a micron-thin layer of gold onto the surface of another metal is known as gold plating. This underlying element is frequently a base metal such as brass, bronze, or silver (vermeil). We've all bought a less expensive piece of jewellery only to discover that it exposes a different hue beneath the surface or left your skin stained.
