How is Rolled Gold Filled Made?
Rolled Gold also known as “gold filled” is made by fusing a layer of Karat Gold to a suitable supporting metal (or alloy) using equipment that carefully controls pressure, heat, and time. The bond produced is a permanent one. Electroplating is NOT a part of this process. Rolled Gold wears like solid gold because its outer surface is solid gold. 

What are some of the advantages of Gold Filled?
Rolled Gold has been referred to as the “Gold of the Future” because it offers all the same physical characteristics as solid gold such as beauty, durability, and strength, but at a fraction of the cost. Since the gold is on the outer surface area, it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between solid gold and Rolled Gold, except when it comes to the cost!

How Long Will Gold Filled Jewelry Last?
The point to remember is that gold, along with its other unique qualities, is virtually indestructible. Since you are guaranteed a substantial layer of gold on your Rolled Gold jewelry by law, with reasonable care it will last a lifetime.
