Frequently Asked Questions
What do gold and silver plating mean?
Gold and silver plating refers to a process where a more affordable metal is coated in a thin layer of either gold or silver. It brings the costs down while still allowing you to have the look and feel of precious metals. We think it’s an excellent choice if you’re on a budget and want to build a jewelry collection.
How do I keep my cat-themed necklace looking its best?
Caring for your cat-themed necklace comes down to two main details. The first is the material. Solid gold and real silver have different hardness levels when compared to plated jewelry. In fact, many caustic jewelry cleaners you’d use for solid gold and sterling silver would ruin plated pieces. The second is storage. Anytime you aren’t wearing your necklace, it should be put into a jewelry box or case to prevent corrosion.
