gold-filled
Bonded precious coating
Gold-filled describes jewelry or other items made by bonding a layer of gold to a base metal core, typically brass.
The gold layer is thicker and more durable than gold plating, making gold-filled items longer-lasting: a gold-filled watch case, gold-filled earrings.
The technique offers the appearance of solid gold at lower cost.
