Rhodium Plating
Jewelry isn’t just an accessory; it’s an expression of style and sentiment. Over time, white gold and other metals can lose their luster, but rhodium plating brings back the brilliance. At Christopher Fine Diamonds, with over 21 years of expertise, we restore your treasured pieces to their original shine.

What is Rhodium Plating
Rhodium plating is a finishing process where a thin layer of rhodium, a rare and durable metal, is applied to jewelry. It enhances the brightness, protects the underlying metal, and gives white gold its signature silvery-white appearance.

Why Is Rhodium Plating Essential?
Restore Shine: Over time, white gold can appear dull or yellow. Rhodium plating revives its brilliance.
Scratch Protection: Rhodium is harder than gold, adding a protective layer against everyday wear.
Hypoallergenic Benefits: Rhodium creates a barrier, making jewelry more comfortable for sensitive skin.

How Often Should You Plate Your Jewelry?
Depending on wear, rhodium plating is typically recommended every 1–2 years. Rings worn daily, such as engagement or wedding bands, may need more frequent plating.
