Silver plating for costume jewelry

Silver plating for costume jewelry for the domestic and international markets

Costume jewelry keeps gaining ground in the market. FC Joias is ready to handle large orders without compromising the quality of its service. We are also recognized throughout Brazil and in other countries whose businesses invest in this industry and choose FC Joias for silver plating on costume jewelry.

What sets FC Joias apart in silver plating for costume jewelry

To ensure excellence in our costume jewelry plating, the pieces go through a complete process, from order intake to delivery to the customer. We sort the pieces and photograph and register every item received. Thorough cleaning ensures full adhesion of the silver layers to be applied.

Many people stop wearing costume jewelry because of unpleasant allergic reactions. One advantage of our silver plating for costume jewelry is that it is hypoallergenic.

Good silver plating on costume jewelry can include several layers, depending on what the customer requests. The more layers, the more refined the finish and the better the shine. Silver-toned products can also receive rhodium plating. Rhodium is a very bright metal that helps protect silver from the natural oxidation that tarnishes it.

Caring for your silver-plated costume jewelry

Silver is a beautiful precious metal. Still, when we silver-plate costume jewelry, we recommend some care:

  • Store in individual bags or wrapped in paper;
  • Wash and dry after extended wear or exercise, because of the salt in sweat;
  • Do not wear in seawater or swimming pools;
  • Avoid contact between the costume jewelry and cosmetics or toiletries;
  • Polish (special polishing cloths for silver are available on the market).

An interesting fact: silver plating for costume jewelry is not the only use for silver. It is also one of the most widely used metals in industry because it is an excellent conductor of electricity. Even when it oxidizes, silver keeps its properties and has a long service life.
