What is a Rhodium Flash?
Rhodium is a precious metal, a member of the platinum family. Rhodium plating is most often found on white gold to give it a white, reflective appearance. The term white gold is something of a misnomer since gold is actually yellow. What jewelers call white gold today is an alloy (mixture) of gold and a white metal – usually nickel, silver, or palladium. White gold has a yellowish cast, the higher the karat weight, the more gold there is mixed in with the alloy and the more yellow the cast appears. Since the wearer of white gold is looking for a bright white look, a very thin layer of rhodium electroplating is used to make that jewelry shine. White gold plated with rhodium will also keep its good looks longer - rhodium will not tarnish or discolor. A quick trip to Jon Bate Jewelry Studio is all it takes to bring your piece back to life. Most jewelry items can be easily replated, although replating a two-toned piece will be a little more expensive because of the extra work required.

Solder Repairs
  • Gold chain solders start at $14.00. This is for an average size chain. Heavier chains can be more complicated to repair so we need to see the chain to price it. We can also offer you a discounted price on chains with multiple worn links. These and other repair jobs are best priced as an estimate, so bring your items to the studio for detailed pricing.
