What is Gold Filled?

Gold filled is an actual layer of gold pressure bonded to another metal. Gold filled is not to be confused with gold plated. Gold filled items have a much thicker layer of gold on them, and the gold is a much higher quality. It is tarnish resistant, does not flake or rub off or turn a different colour.

What is Gold Plated?

Gold plated is where you have a thin layer of gold plated to another metal. This  is created by electroplating a base metal such as brass with the layer of gold, a chemical process that uses an electrical current to bind the two metals together. The term 'Vermeil' is used when this process is used to plate the gold to sterling silver.

Are your stones real?

Yes. All the stones that we use are precious gemstones. For further information on these stones please visit the Gemstone section on the website.

Do you offer different size bracelets/necklaces to the ones stated on your website?

Yes. If you would like to purchase an item in a different length, then please get in touch via info@jitterbugjewellery.co.uk and I’ll be more than happy to advise you. Designs made to a specific length may incur an additional charge dependent on the length required.
