Why We Use Gold-Plated Alloy in Esay’s Select Glasses Chains: Benefits and Insights

Gold plated alloy chain, by it’s name it’s one metal material with gold finish.

 

First we need to know, Alloy is a material made by combining two or more metals, or a metal with other elements. The benefits of alloy is that has enhanced properties compared to its individual components. Alloy chain / findings are often stronger, more durable, resistant to corrosion, or have improved conductivity, depending on the metals mixed.




Alloys offer several benefits over pure metals due to their enhanced properties, making them widely useful in Esay’s Select glasses chain range. Here are some key benefits:

  1. Increased Strength: Alloys are often stronger than pure metals, making them suitable for construction, machinery, and tools. For example, steel (an alloy of iron and carbon) is much stronger than pure iron.

  2. Corrosion Resistance: Alloys like stainless steel (iron, carbon, and chromium) resist rust and corrosion, making them ideal for use in environments exposed to moisture or chemicals.

  3. Better Heat Resistance: Certain alloys, such as those containing nickel or titanium, can withstand high temperatures, making them suitable for use in engines, turbines, and other high-heat applications.

  4. Lightweight Properties: Alloys like aluminum alloys offer high strength but are lightweight, making them ideal for applications in the automotive and aerospace industries.

  5. Cost-Effectiveness: Alloys can be more cost-effective by combining less expensive metals with small amounts of more expensive ones, reducing overall costs without compromising quality. Even though there are many expensive products in the same category, I aim to create a product range that's accessible to most people around the world, offering high quality at a more reasonable price.




Gold plated , a thin layer of gold through a process called electroplating. This gives the item the appearance of solid gold while being more affordable.

Benefits of Gold-Plated Alloy:

  • Affordability: It offers the look of gold jewelry or accessories at a fraction of the cost.

  • Versatility: Gold-plated glasses chain can be shaped into intricate designs using the alloy base, which might not be as easy with solid gold.

  • Aesthetic Appeal: It provides the appearance and shine of gold, making it an attractive option for fashion glasses accessories.

Considerations:

  • Durability: Since the gold layer is thin, it can wear off over time, especially with frequent use or exposure to moisture, sweat, or chemicals. Maintenance: Gold-plated chains and findings require gentle care to maintain their appearance, as rough handling can cause the gold layer to fade or chip.





Overall, gold-plated alloy products offer an affordable and stylish alternative to solid gold while still maintaining a luxurious appearance. At Esay’s Select, we strive to ensure each item has a longer lifetime, contributing to sustainability. To help your glasses chain last, we recommend avoiding contact with chemicals and water, and gently wiping it with a clean, soft cloth after each use. This simple care routine will help maintain your beautiful glasses chain for years to come."
