Why we use 14K Gold Filled, not Gold Plated.
Gold Filled
At Atelier Akina, we only use 14K Gold Filled for our pieces. Here's why:
- Layer of gold is up to 100 times thicker.
- Consistent thick layer of gold is 'melted' to the base metal.
- As a result, it is longer lasting and doesn't tarnish or wear down easily.
- Nickel-free & hypoallergenic, great for sensitive skin.
- Solid gold look & feel at fraction of the price.
- With proper care, it can last years.
Gold Plated
We don't use gold plated. Here's why:
- Layer of gold is inconsistent and thin, equivalent to a single strand of hair.
- Base metal is simply 'dipped' in gold.
- As a result, it tarnishes & wears down quickly.
- Often irritates sensitive skin.
- Can be overpriced for low quality
- Loss of lustre or gold layer after one or few wears.

Frequently Asked Questions
Gold filled jewellery is considered the affordable equivalent of solid gold. It offers a thicker layer of gold that is 'melted' onto the base metal, making it more durable and tarnish-resistant. This process results in a product that closely resembles solid gold in look and feel, but at a more affordable price.
In contrast, gold-plated and vermeil jewellery are merely dipped in a thin layer of gold. This thinner layer can wear off after a few uses, making gold filled jewellery more resistant to wear, tarnish, and fading.
Yes, you can! If you’ve had reactions to jewellery before, it’s often because of nickel. Our gold filled jewellery is hypoallergenic & nickel-free, so it’s less likely to cause irritation. The thick layer of 14K gold helps prevent skin issues, making it a great choice for sensitive skin.
Yes, you can! Gold Filled Jewellery is highly resistant to tarnish and fading because of its thick gold layer that is 'melted' onto the base metal, making it more durable and perfect for everyday wear.
In contrast, gold-plated and vermeil pieces are dipped, which means their thin gold layer can rub off after a few wears. With proper care, gold-filled jewellery will maintain its lustre and shine for many years.
Definitely! Gold Filled jewellery is tarnish-resistant and holds up well in water, unlike gold-plated or vermeil options. However, we suggest removing your Atelier Akina pieces before swimming or showering, especially if they have crystals & precious gemstones.
Some crystals and stones are porous or sensitive to water, which can damage them or dull their shine. To keep your favourites in top condition, it’s best to keep them dry.
To ensure your beautiful jewels last, here are some simple tips:
- Store it in a dry place – Moisture is jewellery’s worst enemy, even with sterling silver or solid gold. Always keep your jewellery in a dry environment to avoid discolouration.
- If it gets wet – Don’t worry if you get caught in the rain! Just pat it dry and let it air out in a dry spot. Avoid putting it back in a box while it’s still damp, as that can create moisture.
- Regular cleaning – Use the white polishing cloth provided to gently wipe down the gold-filled parts. This helps remove sweat, dirt, or oils that can cause the gold to dull or tarnish over time.
- Avoid wearing it in the shower – It's best to remove your jewellery before showering. Water, soap, and shower products can cause buildup, which may dull the finish and affect the metal over time.
- Avoid contact with chemicals – Try to keep your jewellery away from perfumes, lotions, hair sprays, and cleaning products. These can cause discolouration or damage to the metal over time.
- Take it off during physical activities – It’s a good idea to remove your jewellery before exercising, swimming, or doing any tasks that may cause it to break, dent, rub against hard surfaces or get exposed to sweat and chemicals.
