Double Adjustable Gold Necklace
Adjustable silver necklace gold-plated. Two small handcrafted gold-plated circles on a snake chain can be adjusted, creating different designs.
Dewdrops Gold-plated Collection. Pearls of water contain the majesty of the sea. This jewelry represents an abstraction of water pearls blending into one. Slightly curved silver- or gold circles of different sizes catch and reflect the light. Depending on the light angle, the circles appear like small shiny pearls.
Material
18K gold-plated Sterling Silver (matte Finish)
Clasp type: Bayonet (last photo)

High quality gold-plating. The thickness of the gold layer is decisive for the durability of the gilding. For my jewelry I apply always a 10 micron gold layer (compared to the 3 to 4 micron thickness of a normal gold plating).
This necklace is also available in plain sterling silver.
Size
The chain is approx. 75 cm. long and the pieces are approx. 3,3 cm (the one with 4 circles) and 2 cm diameter (1 circle).
Process
This piece of jewelry is handmade in our Berlin studio using traditional goldsmith techniques.
Each piece comes in a black Cirer jewelry box.
Maintaining Gold-plated Jewelry
Gold plated jewelry has undergone a particular surface treatment and requires a very careful handling. Do not use abrasive methods to clean
these pieces (including jewelry cloths) as this may remove the surface coating. The best way to clean these pieces is to carefully rub them lengthwise with a soft cloth (cotton jersey) in one direction. If they remain dull or have a residue, you can carefully soak them in warm soapy water and gently move your fingers across the surface. To finish, rinse them thoroughly and pat dry (do not rub). Over the course of time the surface will get a patina, which some people love as it gives the piece a unique character. However, each piece can be restored to its original look by repeating the surface treatment. If you are interested, please contact us. In order to support the longevity of your jewelry, avoid contact with humidity. Remove your jewelry before bathing, showering or swimming. Store your valuable jewelry in jewelry cases. Avoid contact with moisturizers, perfumes, hair care products and body care products, as they can accelerate the tarnishing process. Always remove your gold plated pieces when you come into contact with the aforementioned chemicals.
