Introduction
Jewelry has long been a symbol of elegance, wealth, and personal expression. However, traditional solid gold jewelry often comes with a hefty price tag, making it inaccessible to many. This is where 18K gold-coated silver jewelry steps in as the perfect solution. It provides the luxurious appeal of gold while maintaining affordability and durability.
At Dazelane, we take this one step further by offering 1.5-2 micron thick gold plating, far superior to the industry standard, ensuring longevity and resistance to tarnish. But what exactly is 18K gold-coated silver jewelry, and why should it be your go-to choice? Let's dive in.
What is 18K Gold Coated Silver Jewelry?
18K gold-coated silver jewelry, also known as gold vermeil, is crafted using a pure 925 sterling silver base and coated with a thick layer of 18K gold plating. The gold layer is applied using advanced electroplating techniques to ensure an even, high-quality finish that lasts much longer than standard gold-plated jewelry.
While standard gold plating can be as thin as 0.1 microns, Dazelane ensures 10X thicker gold coating, ranging from 1.5 to 2 microns, making our jewelry more durable than other brands in India.
Key Components of 18K Gold Coated Silver Jewelry:
-
Base Metal: 925 Sterling Silver (92.5% pure silver, known for its strength and durability).
-
Gold Coating: 18K gold, providing a rich and elegant finish.
-
Plating Thickness: Industry standard ranges from 0.1 to 0.5 microns, while Dazelane offers 1.5-2 microns for enhanced durability.
-
Hypoallergenic & Anti-Tarnish: Safe for sensitive skin and resistant to tarnishing with proper care.
Why Choose 18K Gold Coated Silver Jewelry?
1. The Perfect Balance of Luxury & Affordability
Solid 18K gold jewelry is exquisite, but it comes with an exorbitant price. By opting for 18K gold-coated silver, you get the same luxurious gold aesthetic and shine at a fraction of the cost, making it accessible to more people without compromising on quality.

Dazelane’s thick 1.5-2 micron plating ensures higher durability compared to ordinary gold-plated jewelry, which can wear off quickly.
2. Exceptional Durability & Longevity
One of the biggest concerns with gold-plated jewelry is how long it lasts. With standard plating, the gold layer can wear off in weeks or months, especially with daily wear. However, Dazelane’s 1.5-2 micron thick gold coating ensures that your jewelry lasts significantly longer without fading or tarnishing.
Benefits of Thick Gold Coating:
-
Resistant to everyday wear and tear.
-
Waterproof & weatherproof – wear it confidently in humid conditions.
-
Scratch-resistant compared to standard thin plating.
3. Hypoallergenic & Skin-Friendly
If you have sensitive skin, Dazelane’s 18K gold-coated silver jewelry is the ideal choice. Unlike cheap gold-plated alternatives that use brass or nickel (which can cause skin irritation), our jewelry is made with 925 sterling silver, making it hypoallergenic and safe for everyday wear.
4. Anti-Tarnish & Low Maintenance
Tarnishing is a common problem with jewelry, but Dazelane’s premium plating technology ensures anti-tarnish protection. Our gold-coated silver pieces remain vibrant and require minimal maintenance compared to solid gold, which can develop scratches over time.
Tips to Maintain Your 18K Gold Coated Silver Jewelry:
-
Avoid direct contact with chemicals (perfumes, lotions, household cleaners).
-
Store in an anti-tarnish pouch when not in use.
-
Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its shine.
-
Remove before swimming or showering to extend its longevity.
5. Versatility for Every Occasion
Gold jewelry has always been a staple for both traditional and modern fashion. With Dazelane’s 18K gold-coated silver collection, you get stunning, minimalist, and elegant designs that are perfect for:
-
Everyday Wear – Lightweight and comfortable, ideal for daily use.

How Does It Compare to Solid Gold Jewelry?
While solid gold jewelry is a valuable investment, it is not always practical for daily wear due to its soft nature (prone to scratches) and high cost. Here’s a breakdown of why 18K gold-coated silver jewelry is an excellent alternative:
