The Gold Plated 585 ‰

Gold plated consists of a deposit of gold on a surface of a common metal (brass, copper ...) by electroplating, formerly by evaporation of mercury. In France, standards impose a thickness of 3 microns of gold. This process creates a layer of gold from 1/1000 to 1/3000 mg on a more affordable metal such as silver or copper.
