plated
Covered in chrome
Plated describes something covered with a thin layer of metal, usually gold or silver over a base metal: gold-plated jewelry, silver-plated flatware.
The coating provides appearance without the cost of solid precious metal.
In cooking, plated means arranged on a plate for serving: The chef plated the entrées with artistic precision.
Armor plate gives us plated armor.
