What Does 18K Gold Plated Actually Mean?

18K gold plating means a base metal is coated with a layer of genuine 18-karat gold (75% pure). It is a premium plating — more durable than 14K and richer in colour than standard gold-tone finishes. At Alphenik, all 18K gold pieces use tarnish-resistant plating selected for wearability in the UAE climate. Full explainer: What is 18K gold plated jewellery?
